Baby Showers:

A baby shower can be a party that is held before the baby is born or after the baby has been born. Because the party centers on gift-giving, the baby shower is generally arranged by a close friend or relative. Baby showers, like bridal showers and bachelorette parties, are becoming open to new ideas, concepts, themes, games, and changes in etiquette.

Among Americans, there is great variance in practices and themes of baby showers. Among Hindus in India, religious rituals resembling modern baby showers are held during the seventh month of pregnancy. A baby shower doesn't have to be an expensive affair. It can simply be a good excuse to get your close friends and family together to celebrate this exciting time.

Here are some plausible baby shower activities:

- Guess the baby food flavor: guests have to taste-test several flavors of baby food and try to identify them.

- The fastest drinker: Give a small amount of drink in a bottle to each baby and see who can finish it first.

- Pass the parcel: A classic game where a parcel is passed from kid to kid or parent if the child is too young to handle it.

Toys/Gift ideas and Toy information:

Many successful films, television programs, books and sport teams have official merchandise, which often includes related toys. Modern dolls are often made of cloth or plastic. The earliest toys were made from materials found in nature, such as rocks, sticks, and clay.

Toys and games have been unearthed from the sites of ancient civilizations. The things that are built are sometimes used as toys once completed, but generally speaking, the object is to build things of one's own design, and old models often are broken up and the pieces reused in new models. There are many different types of puzzles, for example a maze is a type of tour puzzle.

Baby details and information

The newborn may also have Mongolian spots, various other birthmarks, or peeling skin, particularly on the wrists, hands, ankles, and feet. During labour and birth, the infant's skull changes shape to fit through the birth canal, sometimes causing the child to be born with a misshapen or elongated head. Babies are traditionally called "toddlers" when they start to walk, whether or not they have reached this age.

Only breast milk is considered to have all that an infant requires to grow normally (thrive), although formula undergoes frequent alterations in order to more closely imitate human milk. As an infant's vision develops, he or she may seem preoccupied with watching surrounding objects and people. Newborns can respond to different tastes, including sweet, sour, bitter, and salty substances, with a preference toward sweets.
