Coed Baby Shower Games for Men

Unique Gender Reveal Party Ideas!

Unique gender reveal party ideas are not hard to come by. first we must understand what a gender reveal is, Unlike traditional baby showers ,where only women attend, this type of shower is a coed party where both men and women can join.

The beauty about this type of baby shower is the fact that everybody at the shower can share in the excitement in finding out the baby's gender!

Both family and friends will gather anxiously around you and the expecting couple as the mom-to-be slowly cuts into the cake to reveal the baby's gender. Doesn't that just sound awesome!?!?

If the expecting couple cuts out a pink piece of cake then it's a girl, and if the expecting couple cuts out a blue piece of cake then it's a boy. It's that simple.

Or the mom-to-be can just take the knife out of the cake to reveal the gender of the baby by looking at the color of the knife. It's all up to you and how the expecting parents want to do it!

How to pull off a unique gender reveal baby shower

There are many unique gender reveal party ideas that you can use, but first, let's talk about the most important part:

You will need to to talk with your ultrasound technician and have him or her write the gender of the expecting couple's child on a slip of paper and place it in a sealed envelope.

Ask the ultrasound technician if he or she has experience with this kind of request. If not, make sure you explain the request and the idea carefully.

The sealed envelope containing the gender should then be delivered to your baker with the strict instructions of baking a pink or blue cake depending on the information in the secret envelope.

The information in the envelope should only be known to your ultrasound technician, your baker and no one else.

Again, ask your baker if he or she has experience with this type of event. If not, explain it to your baker.

Don't forget to instruct your baker to completely cover the cake and design the outside of the cake with a neutral-color frosting that is neither pink nor blue. The frosting can match your baby shower theme as long as it doesn't reveal in any way, shape, or form the gender of the child.

Once you get this crucial part out of the way, it's time to plan the rest of the baby shower. Remember that this is a coed baby shower and your color palette should be made up of clean colors and not pastel colors.

You should include games for women and baby shower games for men. Nothing about this type of party should let on to the baby's gender so keep it as neutral as possible. Everything must remain neutral from the style of your invitations to your diaper cake centerpiece.

Also, don't forget to advertise the fact that you're having a gender reveal mystery baby shower in the invitation and anywhere else that you can think of to build up hype and to get everybody excited about the event.

#13 Tips from Jessica – Instead of a cake why not get a big neutral decorated cardboard box and fill it with helium balloons, pink balloons if its a girl and blue balloons if its a boy! The mom and dad to be will open the box together on the count of three revealing the gender of the baby in dramatic fashion! I love this idea!

#14 Gift tip from Alison – Instead having a traditional baby shower, she opted for a gender reveal party. This allows her to plan it herself since a baby shower host isn't needed for this type of party. This also provides less pressure on the guests to create a baby shower for her. She simply asked everyone to bring diapers and wipes. Simple and fun!

#15 Gift tip from Christina – Why not have both a gender reveal party and a baby shower? How you ask? First, hold a gender reveal party on the 20th ultrasound week. This allows for the guests to get gender specific gifts for the baby shower later down the road. Great idea!

#16 Tips from Sarah – Instead of a cake why not have filled cupcakes? Remember to have a neutral color for the outside frosting and a pink or blue filler for the inside part. Why filled cupcakes? because they are easier to manage and handle. Plus, revealing the gender of the baby becomes more of a personal experience for each guest. On the count of three, take a bite everyone!

#17 Game tips from Sarah – She had her guests stand on either side of the room, depending on which gender they thought it was. She also took pictures of the "boy camp" side of the room and "girl camp" side of the room. First Sarah and her husband had a bite and then everyone else did. It was pink by the way 😉

By the way, number 17 is by far one of my favorite unique gender reveal party ideas out there!

BONUS: Gender reveal neutral diaper cake ideas

What is a baby shower without a diaper cake? There are many unique gender reveal party ideas, but one essential thing you need is a centerpiece.

These beautiful three-tiered diaper cake centerpieces are always good to look at and they provide a valuable resource for the mom to be.

You can easily create one to fit any theme, even a genderless theme like this one. Below I've provided you with an easy-to-follow diaper cake tutorial video, written material Guide and some easy-to-follow neutral decorating tips:

You'll need:

• assorted rubber bands
• sixty three diapers
• scissors
• paper towel tube
• glue gun
• 1 1/2 inch green satin ribbons and orange wire-edged sheer ribbons

The First tier base consists of: ring 1 – 6 diapers, ring 2 – 12 diapers, ring 3 – 18 diapers.

The Second tier middle part consists of: ring 1 – 6 diapers, ring 2 – 12 diapers.

The Third tier or the top part consists of: ring – 6 diapers.

First thing you'll have to do is take your green satin ribbons and wrap them around each tier. You will attach the ends with a glue gun, be sure not to burn yourself.

After the glue has settled, you will then wrap your orange wire edge sheer ribbons around the green ones. You will cut the ends and tie them into little bows. Make sure to puff out the ends to enhance the Bows.

You should put a cute little gender neutral plush doll on top of the three-tier diaper cake. Rabbits, bears, giraffes and ducks make good choices for this diaper cake theme.
If you feel this is too much of an arts and crafts challenge then you could always buy a diaper cake. There are plenty of high quality and reasonably priced diaper cakes for sale online.
