A list of 20 gender reveal gift ideas to make shopping for the special day easy! Soon to be parents will love any of these gifts!
Gender reveal parties are becoming more and more popular, and with good reason! They’re a fun way to celebrate the upcoming arrival of a new baby and bring loved ones together.
A gender reveal party is really what the title says it is! Either the expectant parents or a family member can throw a little or big party to announce the gender of their baby. Usually, it’s a surprise to everyone, except one person!
After an ultrasound, the technician can write down the gender of the baby on a piece of paper and seal it in an envelope. The expectant mother then can give the envelope with the sex of their baby to close friends who want to be involved in planning the party.
That person then will get a gender reveal cake or balloons with the gender inside, ie pink or blue color of the cake or pink or blue confetti inside a balloon that will be popped.
So when the cake is cut or the balloon is popped, everyone will learn the gender of the little love at once!
And if you’re invited to a gender reveal party, you may be wondering what kind of gift to bring.
