Classic and adorable with soft teddy bear decorations, centring your theme around teddy bears is such a popular choice for both baby girls and boys that are ready to be celebrated.
If weather allows, take it outside for a classic teddy bear picnic with picnic baskets, gingham prints, and of course, teddy bears for a playful outdoor setting.
For a specific color theme, you can lean into the soft neutrals that lend themselves to teddy bears, but if you know the sex, incorporate soft pops of pink or blue for a unique twist.
