Hosting “A Little Boo Is on the Way!” Baby Shower

A Sweet and Spooky Way to Celebrate Baby on the Way!

If your baby shower falls during the fall season—or you just love all things Halloween—why not celebrate with a boo-tiful twist? A “Little Boo is on the Way!” baby shower is the perfect mix of sweet, spooky, and sentimental. With pastel pumpkins, friendly ghosts, and cozy fall treats, this theme offers the perfect setting for welcoming your tiniest trick-or-treater.

1. Set the Tone with Invitations

Start by sending out ghostly-cute invitations that feature soft orange, lavender, cream, or sage green tones. Look for playful illustrations of baby ghosts, smiling pumpkins, or starry skies that say “A Little Boo Is on the Way!” Make it extra special with matching envelopes, wax seal stickers, and polka dot envelope liners.

2. Pastel Halloween Decor

Forget the gory gore—this baby shower is all about cozy cuteness. Incorporate:

• Soft ghost and pumpkin garlands

• Balloon arches in soft orange, lilac, and white

• Tableware with tiny bats, stars, or crescent moons

• Wooden signage or acrylic welcome signs that read “Welcome, Little Boo!”

Add cozy textures like velvet pumpkins, pampas grass, and knit throws to enhance that autumnal warmth.

3. Themed Activities and Games

Keep guests entertained with Halloween-inspired baby shower games like:

• Pumpkin or Pacifier? (guess what’s in the mystery box)

• Baby Boo Bingo

• Guess the Baby Food (in black jars, of course)

• A onesie decorating station with spooky stencils and fabric markers

Offer small prizes like fall-scented candles, mini broomstick pens, or candy corn treat bags.

A “Little Boo” baby shower menu is your chance to get creative:

• Ghost-shaped sugar cookies

• Pumpkin spice cupcakes with edible gold leaf

• Hot apple cider bar with cinnamon sticks and spiked options for the adults
