Baby Showers:
A baby shower can be a party that is held before the baby is born or after the baby has been born. Beginning in the 1970s if permitted by the mother and if asked politely, "tummy-rubbing" is now a baby shower event. There is no set rule for when or where showers are to be held and the party can thus be held at a variety of places and at various times.
In the United Kingdom and France, baby showers are a new phenomenon, recently imported from the United States. It is common for the host to provide baby-themed games during the shower. "Pampers party" is also a mens-only shower, usually held the same night as the women's baby shower.
Here are some practical baby shower activities:
- Guess the expectant mother's girth: guests cut pieces of ribbon, yarn, or toilet paper to a length they believe matches the mother-to-be's tummy circumference.
- Guess who's toy: One of the child's toy is placed in a bad and the guests have to feel inside the bag to guess the object and the owner.
- Opening the gifts in front of the guests.
Toys/Gift ideas and Toy facts:

Sometimes intended as decorations, keepsakes, or collectables for older children and adults, most dolls are intended as toys for children, usually girls, to play with. Toys can aid in the development of physical and mental skills which are necessary in later life.
Toys for infants often make use of distinctive sounds, bright colors, and unique textures. Dolls like Fulla and Barbie are often criticized for what they teach children about gender roles. Toys and play in general are an important part of the process of learning about the world and growing up.
Baby details and essentials
While still inside the mother, the infant could hear many internal noises, such as the mother's heartbeat, as well as many external noises including human voices, music and most other sounds. In recent years, mainly in western countries, it has been looked down upon for males to play with toys that were originally stereotyped as being "for girls. Gentle rocking back and forth often calms a crying infant, as do massages and warm baths.
If the doctor diagnoses colic, there are many things parents can do to help the baby - and themselves - through the next few months. The sound of other human voices, especially the mother's, can have a calming or soothing effect on the newborn. The umbilical cord of a newborn is bluish-white in color.
