Before the birth of a child, there is the habit of throwing a baby shower. Through this party the relatives and the friends of future parents have the opportunity of offering them useful gifts. This event is usually organized by a friend of the family.
Being an event where women gave advice to the future mom, regarding how to raise a baby, this event was in older days a women only party. Nowadays, men can also be invited, but they often prefer not to attend. Even if we have become more civilized, the main person involved in raising children and in giving birth to them is still the mother. So, while all the conversation is centered on the joys of motherhood, men feel better talking cars and computers in the other room or simply staying at home.
If you have a pregnant friend you could surprise her by organizing a baby shower at your place. This will save her the trouble of cleaning after the party is over. Make sure that you decorate the room in a lovely way to underline the importance of the event.
When the day comes,decorate a large room with foil balloons and with banners having "baby shower" written on them. Use a pink or blue table cloth for the table where juice, tea and cookies will be served. If you don't know the gender of the baby, simply dress the table in a typical cloth with round bellied future moms painted on it. Make sure you don't forget to establish with the pregnant friend, the best way to thank the guests for the presents. That can be done either by offering thank you cards, or by giving each guest a goody bag with cookies or symbolical presents.
