What Are Ideas For March Baby Shower themes?

1. Baby in Bloom

Celebrate the season of growth with a "Baby in Bloom" theme. Decorate with lush floral arrangements, pastel-colored balloons, and dainty garden accents like watering cans or flower pots. Serve fresh, garden-inspired treats like floral cupcakes and fruit platters. This theme is perfect for outdoor or indoor garden settings, welcoming spring with a vibrant burst of color.

This theme is ideal for a beautiful balloon garland like this one.

2. Vintage Winnie the Pooh

Take a nostalgic trip to the Hundred Acre Wood with a vintage Winnie the Pooh theme. Use soft yellows, honeycomb patterns, and classic Pooh illustrations for decorations.

I love this Winnie the Pooh baby shower welcome sign to set the tone of your baby shower decorations.

I recommend using a decal like this one that says “A Little Butterfly Is On The Way”. It can be used on a variety of surfaces to personalize your baby shower decorations.

8. March Madness

For sports-loving parents, March Madness is a playful and unexpected theme. Decorate with basketballs, scoreboards, and pennants. Serve stadium-style snacks like sliders, popcorn, and nachos. Add a fun twist by asking guests to make "predictions" for the baby, such as their future hobbies or traits.
