Baby Shower Wishes - Tips and Ideas

Do you need some ideas for baby shower wishes?

What do you say when you're going to a baby shower and are giving a card? Do you simply let the card speak for itself, or do you feel as if you need to say something more?

Can you get away with just giving a small tag with a special sentiment attached to the gift? Baby shower wishes can be tough because it can be hard to say just the right thing. How do you show the parents to be that you are offering them your best wishes?

There are some really fun ideas for baby shower wishes that you can put into place, whether you want to say it in a simple gift tag, or you want to truly let the couple know your hopes for them in the future by putting your wishes in a gift, so it's time to start thinking about what you're hoping for.

• Create a basket of wishes and attach tags of each wish for the new parents to read and enjoy. For instance, incorporate diapers and attach a tag that says something such as, "may you not have to deal with overflowing diapers," or include a relaxing bath soak and pillow spray and say, "May you have the time to rest well.." These are fun for a new couple and everyone at the shower might enjoy the sentiments. In order to really have this gift work, however, you should focus on the changes of life for the parents-to-be and give accordingly.
  
  
• On the flip side, you can give a basket of baby shower wishes for the baby. Consider all kinds of starter's for the new bundle of joy's life. If you're close to the baby, start a savings account or college fund and offer the information as part of the gift with a tag that says, "May your little one have the education he needs to be what he wants," or offer a sweet stuffed toy for baby with the sentiment, "May your new baby have all the love and snuggles he could ever want." Gifts such as this are more than just useful; they are fun and will really show how you care.

If you know what you want to give for the baby shower, and simply want to attach a small tag, you're going to want to think of something sweet to say, so this is where it can get tough. Just remember that you don't have to be long winded to be eloquent, so speak from your heart.

• For instance, if you're giving a car seat, for your baby shower wish, you may want to say something like, "May your baby always be safe."
  
  
• If you're going to give something such as a "free babysitting" gift card, where you will be the sitter, you may want to put your feelings into words by mentioning that even the best mommies and daddies need a little time for themselves, and you would like to help with that.
  
  
• Also, if you're giving a gift card, but you still want to tell the parents-to-be how much you care, you might want to just say something nice like, "For all the little things that you find you need." That's a nice and simple baby shower wish.

Baby shower wishes don't have to be extravagant and they don't have to be over the top to say what you want to say. Baby showers are about filling needs, so when you work to add a little something unexpected, you're sure to give a gift that the parents-to-be will be thrilled to receive.
