Diaper Party Themes

Diaper Party Themes

Diaper Parties run the gamut from small and informal to large and fancy. Once you’ve decided to throw a diaper party, you can drill down on the style. We have diaper party ideas to fit every style and budget.

Here are some of our favorite Diaper Party Themes:

Diapers & Drinks

This idea works for a variety of different scenarios. It can be a fancy cocktail party hosted at a friend or family member’s home on a Friday night or a more casual get together of co-workers at a pub after work on a Thursday. It’s great for celebrating a dad-to-be but works just as well celebrating the couple. Just have a signature mocktail on hand for the expecting mom and anyone else who wants a celebratory drink sans alcohol. This concept also works well for a brunch diaper shower. Throw in some real and mocktail mimosas for the win.

We have a great post filled with fabulous mocktails perfect for any baby shower here.

Diapers & Donuts

Isn’t it great that baby showers are not a one and done event anymore? Not long ago a parent-to-be could only hope to have one shower. There were so many assumptions around who would be the host as well. It was typically only thrown by a very close family member or friend. And don’t even get us started on the “tradition” that a shower was only for a first baby.

Thank goodness now anybody can - and should - throw a small get-together to celebrate a growing family. A Diapers & Donuts theme is perfect for celebrating a co-worker in the breakroom, a mom friend on the playground one afternoon or any group that wants to mark the special moment in time. This is a theme that’s perfect when you’re short on time. It’s easy to plan. You can just grab those donuts and go if it’s a last minute get-together. If you are planning ahead you can get fancier. Donuts from a bakery that can customize the frosting colors and decorative elements are a sweet touch. Or, you can unleash your inner Martha Stewart and bake them yourself.

Dudes and Diapers

Dads today are more involved and hands-on than ever before. So, of course, other dads are eager to celebrate a new member joining the club. A little get-together celebrating the dad-to-be is always a great idea. Whether it’s just a small circle of friends getting together in someone’s backyard for a bbq or a larger group meeting for dinner and drinks one night, the Dudes and Diapers theme lets them know this will be a guy’s night with a twist. Dad’s going to be changing a lot of diapers so let’s make sure he’s stocked and ready.

Diapers & Drivers

This is another one of our favorite ways for guys to celebrate a dad-to-be and is great for golf-loving gals as well. Getting a few foursomes out on the course and following with lunch or dinner is such a fun celebration. A diaper theme and a group diaper gift is perfect for this type of party. It’s easy to bring to the event and easy for the guest of honor to bring home.

Diapers & Wipes Party

This is the simplest, most foolproof baby shower theme ever! This theme will work wherever you decide to host your party and will fit any scale party - big, small, formal, casual.

Diapers & Desserts Party

A Diapers & Desserts party keeps the cost of your party low while keeping the sweet factor high. Hold this type of party in mid-afternoon - after people have had lunch but before dinner. Serve tea and coffee and an array of desserts. It’s a great opportunity for everyone to get together in a low-stress, high-fun environment. If you’re the host, you can even do yourself a favor and make it pot-luck style where guests bring a dessert to share. Looking for diaper-themed dessert ideas? We love diaper shaped cookies or, if you’re feeling less crafty, pop a fun decorative piece into a homemade or store-bought cupcake. We like these and these. Lots of little mini desserts - mini cupcakes, bite-sized brownies - are always more fun than the full-size versions. Not only are they visually more appealing but your guests can have a bit of everything.

Since it is a diaper party, make gifting easier for guests by allowing them to contribute to a diaper gift. Diaper Subscription Gifts from Giftem IncrediBundles make it easy to cover the new little one from birth through potty training.
