Throw a Green Baby Shower

Do you know an expectant mom who likes to do things the green, all-natural, and organic way?  Or, if not, would she like to learn new ways to be a “greener” parent?  If so, throwing a green-themed baby shower is a popular new trend that can be both educational and a whole lot of fun!   Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Green Invites

Planet Friendly Gifts

  • Ask guests to bring all-natural and organic baby products and to wrap them in reusable materials, such as baby blankets, towels or cloth diapers.
  • Stuff a cute and colorful diaper bag with green-themed gifts for the mom-to-be and be sure to include samples of cloth diapers, diaper covers, and creams.

Reduce Waste

  • Skip the plastic and paper products in favor of reusable alternatives such as cloth napkins, silverware and china.
  • Choose eco-friendly favors instead of those that will be thrown away later.  One idea is to put a large handful of green M & M’s along with a packet of organic seeds in a small, terra-cotta pot.  Print out the words “Grown with Love” on a small piece of card stock and punch a hole in the corner of each card.   Hang each card from a decorative ribbon and tie it around each pot.  These are super cute and create very little waste!
