Searching for baby shower inspiration for a little boy? We’ve got you covered with cute and creative baby shower themes!
These themes can be transformed to work in any space – whether you’re throwing the party at someone’s home, outside in a garden or in a hired venue.
Baby shower themes have become so creative and personalised in recent years – they are about way more than just pink or blue! This means you can have so much fun with your baby shower theme, taking inspiration from the mama-to-be’s favourite foods, colours, movies, TV shows and anything else they are passionate about.
Boy baby shower themes
These cool theme ideas will give you some ideas to get you started with planning the perfect baby shower for a little boy.
Here comes the son
I love this playful, sunny theme for a mom expecting a baby boy. It’s a gorgeous baby shower theme for an outdoor or gazebo shower in the summer sunshine or on a warm spring day.
There are no rules when it comes to a colour scheme for this theme, but I personally love the parties that use the cool retro combination of mustard yellow and light blue, with some splashes of orangey red.
You could also add a little splash of gold, using the cutlery, plates or even gold lettering on signage, place settings and cake pops and cookies.
You could have sunshine cookies as party favours, and challenge your guests to decorate onesies with their own sunshine designs.
Locally Grown
If you are looking for a baby shower theme that feels fresh, stylish, warm and playful then Locally Grown is a perfect choice.
This sweet food-loving, nature-celebrating baby shower theme is perfect for parents-to-be who adore farmers’ markets, delicious food, sustainability and a cosy aesthetic.
The great thing about this theme is that there are very few rules. You’ll want veggies and fruits to play a part in your decor, but you get to choose which ones – they can be seasonal or personal choice to tie into a specific theme idea – and a rustic vibe really makes it work. However, it’s down to you how it comes together. Earthy colours work great, but you can add pops of bright colours and pastels too.
Winnie the Pooh
A baby shower inspired by the classic children’s story is perfect for the summer as it’s such a celebration of nature. You could have florals or lots of green foliage and big green leaves.
There are so many different ways to interpret this theme. You could focus on florals and cute teddy bears, or bees and honey.
Boho baby boy
A boho baby shower is all about relaxed, natural vibes with cute pastel colours, neutral nude shades and greens.
You could make it rustic with browns and creams, or add a touch a luxury with pampas grass and palm tree leaves.

Dior-able
Fashionistas will adore Dior in this gorgeous baby shower theme. If you want a traditional blue for boys baby shower colour scheme, but with a fun and feminine twist, then this is absolutely perfect.
Use pretty Dior patterns, ribbons, florals and, of course, Parisian-inspired food. Think macarons, beautiful cake pops and pretty pastries for this shower.
These lovely macarons feature elephants and giraffes to add a little baby magic to this very grown-up baby shower idea.
Ralph Lauren
The Ralph Lauren polo party is such a gorgeous baby shower theme, especially for the stylish mamas-to-be who just love fashion.
Tartan backdrops, cushions and napkins will help bring this theme to life. Use dark blue, green and gold in balloon decorations and floral arrangements to keep the theme running through every bit of the party.
Cookies can feature polo tops and the Ralph Lauren teddy bear. If you’re serving cake, then a teddy bear topper – maybe wearing a Ralph Lauren polo top – is a gorgeous touch.
For a unique thank-you/party favour to give out to guests, why not give them tartan blankets? Roll them up and tie them with brown string with a handwritten note.
We Can Bearly Wait
Perfect for cute and cosy vibes, a woodland teddy-bear theme brings warmth and comfort.
Use soft neutral tones, such as beige, brown, cream, accented with autumnal oranges and golds.
Think bear cupcakes, honey jars as favours, and plush teddy bear centerpieces nestled in rustic baskets.
Baby is Brewing
An adorable coffee bean themed baby shower is perfect for a mama who loves her coffee plus the brown and pale blue colour scheme is so stunning.
Of course this theme could also be used with a focus on tea or even beer.
A coffee or tea bar is a must-have for this theme – perhaps with some unusual and unique flavours, and some pretty takeout coffee cups with “Baby X” printed on them.
Some ideas for names and wording for the theme include:
- A latte love for the little one
- Ice ice baby
- Grounded in love
Slice Slice Baby
Who doesn’t love pizza? A pizza baby shower is fun and cool and perfect for a comforting fall theme.
You’ll want to serve pizzas, naturally, plus use gingham table cloths and ribbons for decor. For your food, bowls of popcorn with candy sprinkled on top add to this playful theme.
You could even set up a DIY pizza station or serve wood-fired pizzas with fun toppings.
Other decor can be cheeky — pizza slice garlands and favours like mini pizza cutters or seasoning jars.
Woodland Creatures
An adventurous woodland theme featuring cute cartoon creatures is so whimsical.
Use greens and blues for a nature feel, plus have cardboard cutouts and banners featuring cute foxes, bears, deer and racoons.
Try serving some fun decorated Adventure Awaits cookies to add a special touch to your food table.
Peter Rabbit
A Peter Rabbit is utterly adorable. The children’s book character is perfect if you love the idea of a whimsical nature theme.
This Peter Rabbit cake from The Sugar Sifter is so sweet and would make the most beautiful centrepiece on the food table.
If you are wondering what to do for food at a Peter Rabbit shower then check out this lovely table of sweet treats from Sugar Baroness Creations. Cake, brownies, carrot cake and sweet cupcakes with green icing with have your guests hopping with joy.
Add Peter Rabbit bunting, flowers in jars, fresh fruit and simple rustic food to tie this all together. Check out this pretty set-up by Chic from Chicago.
Apple of My Eye
Apples are a simple but bold item to take inspiration from. Think big red balloons, rustic crates and bowls of apples on your tables.
It could also be tied in with the “Locally Grown” baby shower theme.
Think apple cider bar, caramel apple favors, and apple-themed games. Decorate with apple crates, baskets of fresh fruit, and gingham prints for a rustic harvest feel.
Add greenery to your decor to make it look really pretty. I love this dessert cart, plus the sweet little baby outfits really add to the vibe.
