Here, we’ll go over everything you need to know to host a successful diaper party.
What is a Diaper Party?
A diaper party is a baby shower for dads (or sometimes co-ed) where guests bring diapers instead of traditional baby shower gifts. Diapers are always in high demand for new parents, so a diaper party can be a practical and fun way to help out the new parents while also celebrating the arrival of their new little one. Pretty much a diaper party is for the lads/men to get together for a party before the baby arrives.
Who should host the diaper party?
Anyone can host a diaper party! Often, the dad-to-be’s friends will throw the party, but it could also be hosted by a family member or even the couple themselves.
When should the diaper party be held?
While the timing of these events can vary, it’s usually best to host them a few weeks before the baby is due. This will ensure that the parents have time to stock up on diapers, so they’re not running out when their bundle of joy arrives! Everyone will enjoy celebrating with sweet treats, meaningful gifts, and of course – plenty of diapers for the little one!
Where should the diaper party be held?
The location of the diaper party can also vary depending on the preferences of the host and the guests. Some popular locations include the home of the host or the dad-to-be, a local park, or a rented event space.
What should be on the guest list?
The guest list for a diaper party should include friends and family members who are close to the dad-to-be or the couple. It’s also a good idea to invite anyone who will be attending the baby shower or who would like to help out the new parents.
How should the diaper party be structured?
The structure of the diaper party can vary depending on the preferences of the host and the guests. Some popular activities include diaper-related games, such as guessing the number of diapers in a basket, what is in the diaper or diaper-changing races. You could also have a potluck-style meal or snacks for everyone to enjoy.
What kind of diapers should guests bring?
When it comes to the type of diapers guests should bring, it’s a good idea to check with the new parents to see if they have a preference. Some parents prefer cloth diapers, while others prefer disposable. Some may prefer a certain brand too. It’s also a good idea to ask about the size of diapers they need, as babies grow quickly and may need different sizes in the early months.

How should the diapers be collected?
To collect the diapers, you could have a designated area for guests to drop off their donations, such as a decorated diaper box or a decorated table. It’s also a good idea to have someone responsible for keeping track of the number of diapers collected so that the new parents can get an accurate count.
Decide on the Theme
The first step in planning any event is deciding on the theme. For a diaper party, you can choose from classic themes like pinks and blues or something more modern such as safari or under the sea. Once you have your theme locked down, you can move onto the decorations. Choose balloons and streamers in coordinating colors, and hang up decorations that reflect your chosen theme. You can also use fabric banners with messages like “Welcome Baby!” or “Diaper Shower” for extra decoration. As the Dad will be hosting this party maybe some sports theme would be appropriate.

Choose Fun Games
A diaper party isn’t complete without some fun games! Some of the most popular games include guessing how many diapers are in a basket, what’s in the diaper, diaper raffle, decorating onesies, and making bibs out of handkerchiefs. You can also play traditional baby shower games like guess-the-baby-food or name-that-baby-song for added entertainment value. Make sure to provide prizes for all of the participants so that everyone gets something at the end of the game!
Hosting a diaper party is a great way to celebrate the arrival of a new baby while also helping out new parents. With some planning and organization, you can create an unforgettable event for your guests! From choosing the perfect location and guest list to deciding on the theme and selecting fun activities, there are plenty of ways to make this special occasion truly memorable. Remember that it’s all about having fun – so don’t forget to enjoy yourself too!
