\"Thanksgiving<\/p>\n

Setting the party mood couldn’t be easier. Simply hang this delightful \u201cLittle Turkey is On the Way\u201d baby shower banner<\/a> (1) from Amazon above the food buffet, dessert station, or gift table. Or use it as a photo background for souvenir snaps with the Mom-to-be!<\/p>\n

For the potluck approach to this gathering, we covered the essentials\u2014the baby shower cake, the appetizers, and a veggie side dish. Have a family member bake or buy a plain frosted cake, add ready-made edible trimmings, and finish with this Little Pumpkin Cake Topper<\/a> (2), also from Amazon.<\/p>\n

Then, plan on an enticing Fall Charcuterie Board<\/a> (3) like this fabulous one by Pizzazzerie! Plus this cute and creative Crescent Turkey-shaped Veggie Platter<\/a> (4) following the recipe from Pillsbury. Assign guests to bring along (or send ahead) the charcuterie elements, like cheeses, deli meat slices, nuts, apples, honey, chips, cookies, pretzels, and more. Others can prepare the crescent rolls, salad greens, cauliflower florets, bell peppers, and olives to form the turkey features on the veggie platter.<\/p>\n

For baby shower beverages, choose mommy-friendly, non-alcoholic drinks. Mix this Thanksgiving Mocktail Mule<\/a> (5) from Monin\u2014featuring autumn flavors and garnishes, and serve it in chic copper mugs. Or prepare cups of hot cocoa paired with these scrumptious Pumpkin Muffins with Pecan Streusel<\/a> (6) that a family member can bake and bring. Special recipe is courtesy of Once Upon a Chef.<\/p>\n

And to round out the Thanksgiving theme, plan some fun time for your guests with this set of \u201cDon’t Say Baby\u201d Baby Shower Game Supplies<\/a> (7). Plus a couple more from our own post on fall-themed baby shower activities<\/a>, and ending with Thanksgiving goodie bags<\/a> or home-made pumpkin treats<\/a> as party favors!<\/p>\n
