Think Winnie the Pooh Tea Party When Hosting a Baby Shower

Consider a Winnie the Pooh baby shower tea party when hosting a baby shower. Chances are you want a theme that is fun, even whimsical. A Winnie the Pooh Baby Shower Tea Party fits that bill. Tea parties are very fashionable nowadays.

Remember when you were a little girl and played house and had tea parties? Well, tea parties are still a great way to entertain. The mom-to-be will love being able to relax and still feel pampered.

Afternoon tea, with little tea sandwiches, little cakes and different teas always makes you feel like you are attending a special event. As with any party, once you’ve decided on a theme, you need to decide on a time and place for the party. The time of our tea party will determine your food selection. Afternoon tea is a lighter meal with tea sandwiches, scones, biscuits and one or two specialty desserts. Tea is served between 5pm and 7pm and has a more substantial meal with various savory dishes such as meat pies, breads, cheeses, salads and cold cuts. Of course, cookies and desserts will follow.

Now it’s time to think about invitations. I enjoy making my own invitations and you can have fun and be creative too. Winnie the Pooh and his friends have many characters and places to create for your theme. Remember, the invitation sets the tone for the party and you want everyone to anticipate having fun and having a good time. On the invitation, there are a few things you can ask your guests to do before the baby shower that can make this a memorable event for the mother-to-be. After all, this is your day, to relax and enjoy your friends before the baby is born.

The decoration can be simple or whimsical, it really depends on you. Some would prefer to use white linen tablecloths with a honey pot with fresh flowers on the tables, with Winnie the Pooh napkin holders holding the linen napkin. This table could also hold a collection of matchless teacups and teapots. Others may choose to have brightly colored tablecloths, Winnie the Pooh plates and serve not only a variety of hot teas but also iced teas. A non-alcoholic tea cocktail can also be a fun addition. Whether it’s streamers and balloons, table linens, and videos taken when guests arrive with special messages for the mom-to-be, this baby shower tea party is a fun place to be.

The best part of a tea party is the food. It can be simple, easy, and can be done ahead of time. It gives the hostess much more time to enjoy herself and her guests, as well as her mom-to-be.

Tea sandwiches are delicate and tasty bites. I use several three-tier tea servers. He makes such a lovely presentation. I love to serve savory and sweet scones and tea sandwiches. Have you tried a black tea garlic cheddar scone? Delicious! Of course, everyone loves my Bacon Tea Mushroom Cream Cheese Sandwiches. Strawberry Cream Cheese Pound Cake Sandwiches are always a hit and easy any time of year. I serve several different types of miniature scones, with about two bites in one scone, instead of the larger scones. That way everyone can sample the varieties on offer. My buns are always a hit and yours can be too. If you don’t like baking, find a bakery that makes amazing scones instead of making your own. I always serve Devonshire cream, lemon cream and a variety of fruit spreads. For the savory scones, I can have some herb butters or herb-infused cream cheeses on the tables. When hosting a baby shower, a Winnie the Pooh baby shower tea party can be a very memorable event that the mother-to-be and the guests will enjoy remembering.
