The baby shower has some pretty strong traditions that haven’t really changed over the years: either a pink or blue theme with the standard steamers, clothespin game, and obligatory assortment of snacks... but not to worry, because 2019 is bringing in some new baby shower trends to make the biggest change in one’s life a true celebration! There are so many ways to celebrate to match any budget or taste, and you’re not limited to pink and blue anymore.

If you are attending a baby shower in the near future, warm up with a little baby shower bingo before you gift shop! Sure, you could order from the registry. Or you could consider the possibilities and come up with custom items to perfectly suit the new mom's tastes and habits.

Feeling stuck for winter birthday party ideas? First, consider the age of your child and their party guests, the number of guests, and your budget.

There’s endless chill winter party potential in and around Calgary.

Having a winter birthday often limits you to an indoor party. But that’s okay because you still have great options for throwing a memorable bash this time of year. One idea is a snowball-themed birthday party for your tween. And the intimate setting of a home party will also give you a chance to get to know your tween’s friends better.
