What kind of music do you play at a baby shower?
There are no hard and fast rules around what music to play at a baby shower, so play music you enjoy.
We recommend playing a variety of your favorite songs across your favorite genres.
From a lyrical standpoint you can choose songs that are specifically about the love between a parent and a child. Many of the songs on the list above capture those sentiments.
You can also mix it up with songs you like, even if they don’t have a lyrical significance for the occasion.
Personally, I think a well rounded baby shower playlist will have a mix of songs you can jam out to and songs that will give you all the warm and fuzzy feels.
Whatever, you go for, the perfect baby shower playlist is one filled with the songs you want to hear at your baby shower.
