Soccer Baby Shower Invitations
If you are planning a soccer-themed baby shower for a girl, you can add some pink to the invitation. Otherwise, you can stick to the classical colors of green and black!
Soccer Baby Shower Decorations
Decorations can be as simple or elaborate as you wish, and you can never have too much soccer images of the balls, goals, and field.
Black and white balloons, soccer color themed streamers with the baby’s name spelled out of a banner, balloon arch garland over the main table, and flag banners are all perfect basic decorations that portray the theme brilliantly.
You can also think about tissue paper pom poms hanging from the ceiling in bold black and red colors, and green tablecloths with soccer and goal cutout centerpieces are also fantastic additions to the overall look.
A full soccer field backdrop for the main event table that houses the cake is great for the theme, and little soccer player figurines, baby soccer jerseys, and soccer balls placed throughout the party venue are amazing to pull everything together.
For tableware, to keep with the theme, you can go for black or white paper plates, cups and napkins, but there are also soccer-themed tablewares that you can find online! Check out these party supplies from Cohasset Party Supply below.
Soccer Baby Shower Food
Food can be especially exciting to put together, as you can really use your imagination incorporating the soccer theme. A soccer ball shaped event cake with a baby soccer player topper, or a plain cake with a cute soccer themed banner, or a full sheet cake in the image of an entire soccer field are both great ideas for fabulous and memorable baby shower cakes.
Likewise, a diaper cake in the same themed fashion can also be put up for the mommy-to-be. Chocolate cupcakes with bright green frosting and bouncing soccer ball toppers, sugar cookies in the shape of soccer flags, and cakepops in the design of little babies in soccer jerseys are as fun as they are delicious ideas.
Glass jars full of flavored popcorns and miniature bottles of Gatorade are sporty and yummy, while saltier fares like hoagie sandwiches and pretzel bites are easy to grab and go as guests enjoy the party.
Soccer Baby Shower Games
Games are easy and interactive when using a soccer theme, as you can set up a little miniature soccer game for the guests to play, especially if it is a coed baby shower or sibling baby shower.
Baby Bingo, guess the baby food and a onesie painting activity are also classic baby shower games that guest still enjoy tremendously, as they offer a creative outlet and a perfect ice breaker.
You can also have guests sign a soccer ball instead of a guestbook as a flair of creativity, and the baby will have this as a keepsake forever.
Soccer Baby Shower Favors
Brilliant favors for a soccer-themed baby shower include soccer ball keychains, personalized candles with soccer ball images, and gourmet cookies with soccer sport images are all wonderful ways to show your guests you are grateful that they celebrated with you. Mason jars full of black and white M&M’s with polka dot ribbon and flag labels are also a guest favorite.
