Party Planning Ideas

Office parties can focus on a variety of themes like game night or BINGO night. Or they can focus on locations like a Hawaiian luau.

Regardless of the setting and focus, you can mix in your baby shower and new arrival celebration.

1. Baby BINGO using baby terms

2. Baby golf put to win baby apparel and toys, then donate to the new parent at the end.

3. Baby movie book a theater and watch Three Men and a Baby or other baby-movie.

Gift Giving Ideas

Giving gifts at business parties can be creative and fun, too. Tie in themed gifts with the rest of the party. For example, give colorful Hawaiian apparel for baby and parents (matching tie-dyed t-shirts and flip-flops). Assemble or buy a nice baby gift basket choc full of stuff for baby like lotion, shampoo, booties, toys, blankets, etc. And box up some family fun with movie rental coupons, boxes of microwave popcorn, candy bars, coloring books, crayons, markers, tablets and yoyos for siblings.

1. Use wrapping paper that matches your party theme.

2. Add silly trinkets that match the theme to package tags and ribbons.

3. Attach a themed gift card that everyone signs

So join in the merry-making. Plan or at least attend the next business bash and have fun!
