Since it’s a monkey baby shower, food also has to match the theme. There are many recipes you can try that are very tasty like crisp riced cookies monkey shaped or the popular banana split which is also easy to make and very good looking on the table. All you need is some ice cream, chocolate sauce, bananas and whipped cream. Dried bananas, yellow banana heads lollies, sugar bananas, or banana flavored jelly beans in a bowl will fit nicely to this theme as well.  Make the food more attractive with Monkey themed labels. Serve and label some ‘jungle vines’ red licorice, ‘banana balls’ yellow lollies, ‘king kong’ burgers, and so on .

Don’t forget about the cake which also has to match the theme. You can use chocolate mud or caramel butter cream for filling and green or blue fondant for decorating and shaping.  Here’s is one time where you can go crazy with colors. Cakes can be decorated in so many ways, but keep in mind they also have to fit in the whole story. How about a monkey diaper cake.  Although they look delicious they are not edible but it will surely be a perfect centerpiece. For a centerpiece you could also simply have a batch of about 10-20 unpeeled bananas sitting on a cake stand, this will surely stand out.

As far as drinks are concerned, either you choose virgin or alcoholic cocktails (as long as Mommy to-be don’t mind it) you can always go for green punch made of ginger-ale, pineapple and lime sherbet. If the background color is blue try a blue berry punch lemonade. Place some little plastic monkeys hanging off the glass rim. To fit even more into the monkey theme, personalize glasses and paint them with monkeys plus baby shower’s date. You can use them at the end as baby shower favors.

Monkey Baby Shower Games

Think about some activities you can entertain during baby shower. Look for games that the guests will enjoy. There are icebreaker games, word games, trivia games, popular games and so many more to choose from. For example you can play the popular, “What’s in your purse?” game. Or a modern version of that game, ‘what’s in your phone’. Design a printable matching your theme and pick some objects that you can find in a lady’s purse. It’s more diverting if you use strange things that you know your girlfriends carry in their purse and it’s a general fact that women purses are like little shops, you can find everything in there. Another game is a nursery rhyme quiz. For this game you can find a printable on the internet featuring some lines of popular nursery rhymes.

Guests have to put their imagination to work and find some interesting rhymes. You will have so much fun at the end reading all of them. But each game has a winner so besides the glasses which everyone will get you can always reward the winner with special prizes such as monkey candy jars or very easy to make monkey pillows. This way everyone is happy by getting something special.
