Last week, I gave you a girly girl baby shower idea (Birdie Baby Shower, Tweet Tweet), so it's only fair that this week I give you a 100% BOY baby shower post. Hence, fire trucks. It's classic. The color combination of red, black and white are easy to coordinate, and a splash of yellow here and there would be perfect.
The Invitation
This adorable invitation by Rock Paper Dove comes with white envelopes and check out their cupcake toppers below for the full, matching package. Boy oh boy!

This last invitation by Dimple Prints has been designed in red, black and white combo that I so love for this theme, but it can be customized with different colors (as seen at the Etsy shop). It's a digital file and you print the invitations yourself.

The Menu
Drinks - A bowl of bright red fruit punch and pitchers of ice water to put out the flames in your guests' mouths from those red hots and fire balls (below).
Food - There are so many color and theme coordinated candies. I'm thinking wide mouthed drinking glasses filled with red and black licorice and little glass bowls brimming with Red Hots
, Atomic Fire Balls
and Swedish Fish
! Bright red candy apples and red velvet cupcakes (Click HERE for a recipe by Pinch My Salt).???????

The Games
I like this game by Party Place because it doesn't require wrapping yourself in toilet paper or participating in a blind taste test of baby food. These advice cards could be mailed out with the invitations to be filled out in advance or they could be handed out at the shower. Get 10% off with the coupon code "NEXTSTOPBABY10"
