One of my friends from work just had a baby girl. We are throwing her a baby shower with books as the theme. She has so many clothes and supplies that she simply does not need anymore.
Do you have any good ideas for wording of this request?
Basically books or toys only...no clothes.
Help!
Re: Book baby shower
Here are 3 I found:
I want to be a bright child
As smart as I can be.
That is why I'm hoping
My mom will read to me.
If you plan to bring a card
Please take another look.
I would like to learn my ABC's
From your favorite storybook
Please sign your name
As your personal touch.
Baby (last name) thanks you
Beary, beary much.
OR replace the last paragraph with the following:
Please add your name and a note
Then I'll know you've done your part.
Some day I'll surely thank you
From the bottom of my little heart.
Although cards are nice
They're read once or twice
Maybe three or four times at best
A book is a treasure
Forever and Forever
So instead of a card
To be put aside
Please give the little baby
A book with your name inside
It will be read to our little tyke
Before bed each night
And we will thank you
Forever and Forever!

A card is nice, its sentiment sweet,
But a book will keep baby on her feet.
For years to come, baby will read
Longing for stories will never be a need.
A shelf full of wisdom for all to give,
For baby to keep as long as she shall live.
Filling the shelf should not be hard,
If you would please sign a book instead of a card.
What about a qoute from dr. Suess's I Can Read with My Eyes Shut?
"I can read in red.
I can read in blue.
I can read in pickle color too."
Help the new baby explore the world of books, please do!
Share your favorite childhood read in the gift of a book.
Maybe this is stupid. I got nothing:)
I love all of them so far!
Keep them coming!
