Rubber Ducky Baby Shower Theme
Rubber duckies are a popular and fun theme idea for a baby shower.
Here's a few suggestions for a splashing rubber ducky shower.
Invitations
Buy rubber ducky themed baby shower invitations or why not have a go at making your own?
To make - simply cut out rubber duck shapes from good quality yellow card stock - a cookie cutter makes a good stencil - this is an easy invitation idea but so cute.
Decorations
Decorate the party room with white or clear balloons tied with blue and white streamers or curling ribbons; and dot lots of rubber duckies around the room.
Food
Bake cupcakes in white or rubber ducky patterned baking cups. Then decorate the little cakes with blue icing, and sweet rubber ducky cake decorations. Make rubber ducky shaped cookies, and chocolate baby ducks (make in a candy mold). And fill pretty dishes with yellow or blue jellybeans.
A table covered with a blue tablecloth, or blue fabric, plus paper plates, cups and napkins etc. in a sunny yellow color, or with a rubber ducky pattern, would also work well.
Fun and easy centerpiece ideas
1. Fill a baby bathtub with water. Then float some rubber duckies on the water.
2. Put blue glass marbles in the bottom of a clear glass bowl, fill the bowl with water, then add some cute floating rubber ducks.
3. Neatly fold-up two soft towels and 2 washcloths. Next put one towel on top of the other; and place the washcloths on top. Tie a pretty ribbon around the bale; and top with a rubber ducky or two – or three.
4. Line a baby bathtub, or a basket, with a soft towel or scrunched tissue paper. Then fill with lots of useful little baby necessities - such as baby soap, baby powder, baby lotion, cotton balls, baby shampoo, baby wash, and a baby's brush. Plus of course a cute rubber ducky or 2.
Favor ideas
Favors for a rubber ducky shower might be duck shaped cookie cutters, duck key chains, duck shaped cookies, washcloth lollipops, bubble bath or little duck shaped soaps.
