    Planning a gender reveal party at the last minute can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be stressful! With some creative ideas and thoughtful gifts, you can pull off an exciting reveal that friends and family will love.

    Decorations at a gender reveal party

    First, focus on easy, colorful decorations to set the mood. Pick up some basic party supplies like pink and blue balloons, streamers, tablecloths, plates and napkins.

    Display “Oh Baby!” gender neutral baby shower banners and decorate with pink or blue confetti poppers for the reveal.

    For photo backdrops, use inexpensive pink and blue curtains or pick up a couple rolls of pink and blue streamer.

    Food and Drinks at a gender reveal party

    The food doesn’t need to be fancy – pink and blue chips, M&Ms, licorice, and candy are fun and easy. Pink and blue sweet and salty snack mixes also fit the theme. For drinks, mix up pink lemonade, blue Hawaiian Punch, or blue and pink Jello shots for adults. Display it all on a simple table decorated with balloons.

    Gender reveal ideas

    The reveal itself is the main event! Here are some easy, creative gender reveal ideas:

    • Pink or Blue Balloons – Fill large balloons with pink or blue confetti or tiny paper notes with messages. Pop them open and let the contents fly!
    • Box Surprise – Use a blue or pink wrapped box filled with balloons or confetti that matches the baby’s gender. Let guests pass around and shake the box before opening.
    • Smoke Bombs – Buy colored smoke bomb packets and set them off to unleash a burst of pink or blue smoke. Do this outside for safety and visual impact.
    • Silly String – Pass out cans of pink and blue silly string to guests before spraying at a special target sign announcing “It’s a boy!” or “It’s a girl!”
    • Cake or Cupcakes – Bake a cake or cupcakes and add a hidden pink or blue filling that oozes out when cut open.

    No matter which reveal idea you choose, follow it up by toasting the parents to be with sparkling cider and capturing plenty of pictures!

    Gender reveal gifts

    Beyond the decorations and reveal ideas, thoughtful gender reveal gifts make the party even more special. Here are some fun, useful gift ideas for parents-to-be:

    • Personalized Onesies – Cute, customized onesies announcing “little brother” or “little sister” are perfect for new siblings.
    • Monthly Milestone Blankets – These display monthly baby photos and milestones, creating lasting memories.
    • Keepsake Boxes – Find a special box for storing baby mementos like sonogram photos, hospital bracelets, or first pair of shoes.
    • Hooded Baby Towels – Hooded towels with animal ears make bathtime more fun. Pick pink or blue colors.
    • Teething Toys – From rubber rings to cold teethers, teething toys provide relief for sore gums. 
    • Burp Cloths – Stylish, colorful burp cloths give parents useful gifts that fit any nursery.
    • Pacifier Clips – Pacifier clips attach to baby’s clothes so pacifiers don’t fall. There are cute girl and boy options.
    • Baby Books – Reading is essential for development. Choose classic baby books like Goodnight Moon or alphabet books.
    • Plush Blankets – Super soft baby blankets become child’s lifelong comfort companion.
    • Diaper Bag – Stylish, functional diaper bags with plenty of pockets and compartments organize all baby’s daily necessities.
    • Bath Time Gift Set – A gift basket with baby bath wash, hooded towel, rubber ducks, and more excites new parents. 
    • Keepsake Handprint/Footprint Kit – Capture baby’s tiny hands and feet prints with an ink pad and booklet.
    • Baby Photo Album – Document baby’s early days with a cute album for displaying photos.
    • Baby Monitor – Video monitors with night vision and smart features provide extra peace of mind.
    • Sound Machine – Soothing sound machines help little ones sleep by providing calming noises. 
    • Nursing Cover – For discreet breastfeeding when out and about. Pick fun patterns to match mom’s style. 
    • Teething Necklaces – Wearable necklaces allow baby to safely teethe on silicone beads.

    The best gender reveal gifts are items parents actually need and will use. Focus on quality, practical gifts that make parenthood a little bit easier.

    Final Touches

    Pulling together a last-minute gender reveal party doesn’t need to be difficult or expensive. With some balloons, streamers, silly string, a creative reveal idea, and thoughtful gifts for parents, you have all the ingredients for a fun, memorable party. The most important part is gathering loved ones, both in-person and virtually, to celebrate baby and parents-to-be.
