Grandma Shower Theme party

Grandma shower theme party

First time grandmas need to be recognized with a theme party just for them. This will be the funniest theme party you or your invited guest or the first time grandma has ever attended. It will be uncontrollable laughter. Any pregnant lady would love to give their mothers this special honorary party and get them ready to be a grandma. The pregnant mother would love to repay their moms soon to be grandma for giving them a shower by returning the favor. Showers are usually a dreaded event lets face it, but not this theme party for the pregnant ladies mom. This is the most I have ever laughed, have the camera ready, because it will be a memorable event for everyone. Listed below will be all the items you will need, for the grandma them shower, with instructions on how to present them for the best effect.

Shopping list of special gifts, most of these items can be donated from relatives but remember this has to be a secret. If you live in Florida they have numerous five and dime stores still in business, that have a slew of old people stuff that is perfect for this grandma theme party, because a lot of elderly people reside in Florida.

Each gift kit for the soon to be grandma theme party should be put in a large brown paper grocery  bag and stapled shut, example for the beach and pool items the card could say, We want you to look chic at the beach. For the church outfit the card would say a lovely outfit for church. The beauty kit should be put in an old train case. The laughter will be non stop, I guarantee it. For a game put a fish bowl on the table and put little slips of paper inside that has all the grandma names on them like nana, granny, Gran, grandmother, mamma, mammy mema, mama, Let the soon to be grandma draw her new name out of the fishbowl. When dessert time comes bring out a tray of pudding cups for everyone (as a joke) then when the laughing subsides bring out the real cake and a nice present for the new grandma. Help her put her new gifts on and take her picture, she will love it and you will have many memories and laughs to look back on. Tip: Have your camera ready.
