Whether you're hosting a friend's baby shower [1] or planning your own, the time of year the little one is expected to arrive plays a big part in deciding the theme and small party details [2]. Sure, you could go with something more general that would work all year, but if you're having a Spring baby [3], you might be inclined to go with a theme centered on watercolors or florals, or perhaps in the summertime a beach party would reign supreme.
If you're looking for some seasonal inspiration, read through for 50 of the best baby shower theme ideas [4] based on the time of year (and some that work no matter what the weather!).
