Planning a gender reveal party is fun and full of possibilities. The trend of hosting reveal parties is rising slowly and steadily. A January 2023 survey by YouGov, which polled 1,000 U.S. adults, revealed that baby showers are the sixth most popular social event. About 65% of Americans said they had attended a baby shower at least once, and 22% reported attending one in the past year. While their popularity highlights how cherished these events are, the planning can often be challenging. Don’t worry, as we are here to help you with a list of unique ideas. Your party can be a mix of personalized unique ideas, DIY ideas, catering to seasonal themes, or interactive concepts, games, and activities. The list below contains ideas that will be memorable for both you and the love you hold close, from cake reveal performances to playing interactive games. Check them out!
Simple At-Home Gender Reveal Party Ideas
A simple gender reveal party is less messy, full of fun, and offers an intimate way to celebrate the special moment, creating memories to cherish forever. Here are a few simple gender-reveal ideas:
1. Bake The Cake
Ask the baker to bake a pink or blue cake and top it with chocolate or vanilla or some colored frosting that’s not the same as the cake inside it. It has to cover the cake completely so that no one gets a sneak peek, including you!
You could also ask the baker to put blue or pink candies inside that will fall out when you cut the cake. Gather everyone around the table, and you and your partner cut that first slice. Tadaaaa – now you know what you are going to have!
This method of revealing the baby’s gender is cost-effective because the cake can later be served to your guests as dessert.
2. Cupcakes Or Cake Pops
Getting customized cupcakes and cake pops is also a great way to announce the gender of your baby while serving all the guests some yummy sweet treats. Fill the inside of the cupcakes or cake pops with either blue or pink cream/frosting. The guests can all gather around and take a bite from their sweet treat at the same time.
This is actually more fun than the cake idea because everybody gets to participate. You can make it more fun by putting pink and blue icing on the cupcakes and letting the guests guess the baby’s gender by choosing one. Later, when they cut the cake, they can check the icing inside and see whether they were correct or not.
Martha, a blogger, details her gender reveal party preparations, right from choosing the perfect theme to selecting games and creative ways to announce the baby’s gender. The guests were asked to dress in blue or pink based on their gender predictions. Describing the big reveal, Martha said, “So we had all guests wait until I counted to three to take a bite out of the cupcake and see if we found a blue M&M, or a pink. I found a blue M&M inside. IT’S A BOY!!!!!!! (i).”
3. Balloon Release
If you want to do something simple, opt for this method. It is easy to arrange and do. Bring out several pink and blue balloons, let the excitement build, and then release the helium balloons that match the gender of the baby.
4. Gender Reveal Through Mail
This is a super cute idea and meant for those who can’t make it to the party. Or maybe you have decided not to throw a party at all but want your loved ones to know the gender. This is what you could do. Send everyone little baby gifts. There could be different gift boxes with either blue or pink things in them – according to your baby’s gender. They open it up – and voila! The surprise is revealed.
5. Gender Reveal Scratch-Off Cards
These are awesome! You can buy ready-made ones or get them designed. Mail them to your loved ones for baby showers or gender reveal parties. They can scratch it and get to know the answer.
6. Sibling Photos Reveal
Get a photographer and have a photoshoot with your other kid(s) in which you all can model with pink or blue balloons, flowers, or soft toys. Email the pictures to friends and family as a reveal. You could also frame the best one and set it up as a memory forever.
7. Grand Entrance Reveal
Make it an all-white party. Then, make an entrance in a dress that is blue or pink. You will not only stand out but also reveal the gender without actually announcing it!
8. Prop Photo Reveal
If you want to do something simple and low-key, you can have some fun in private with the entire family. You can use props like a pink bow for a girl or mustaches for a boy. Just pose for pictures and make beautiful memories.
9. Sign Reveal
If you don’t want any surprises, hang up an ‘It’s a boy/girl’ banner or put up cute signs everywhere. Also, you can have a blue or pink themed party. It can also be used for the pregnancy announcement with a few changes.
10. Onesie Reveal
If you are planning to have a simple gender reveal party with a small group of people, then you can try this simple and cute idea! Buy a onesie according to the gender of the baby. Ask the cashier to wrap it well, and then take it home, and hand it to one of your family members or friends. Make sure to record everyone’s reaction as they open the wrapping to find what they have been anxiously waiting for.
11. Fortune Cookie Party
Ask a friend or family member to place an order of fortune cookies with some witty messages that will reveal the gender of the baby. Phrases like ‘Sorry Mom, I will be Daddy’s favorite girl’, or ‘I will be a Mama’s boy’ can be used. Distribute these cookies among the guests, let them take a bite, and see whether your baby is a girl or a boy!
12. Wardrobe Reveal
Buy a small cupboard and put clothes, shoes, and other accessories inside according to gender. For instance, if it’s a girl, put pink clothes, shoes, and accessories inside the cupboard, and if it’s a boy, do the same but with blue. Gather your guests around and you and your partner, open the cupboard at the same time to reveal the gender.
13. Deliver Flowers
If you live away from your loved ones, and can’t make it to their place to have a proper reveal party, then you can opt for this one. You can have flowers in pink or blue delivered to your family and friends to reveal the gender of the baby, along with a card congratulating them on becoming grandparents or uncles and aunts. If you are having twins, then make sure to add both pink and blue or lots of blue and pink to the arrangement.
14. A Date Night
If you are looking to surprise your partner in an intimate way before letting anyone else know the gender of your baby, then this is the perfect idea. You can set up a romantic dinner date with all his favorite food and light up a gender reveal candle to celebrate the newest addition to your family in an intimate setting.
15. Nursery Reveal
This one works if both parents already know the gender of your baby. You can use this idea to surprise your family and friends. Set up the nursery for your baby and reveal it to them when it’s done or show them the pictures of the same at the reveal party. A less messy and simple way of revealing what you are having.
Costs: Most ideas listed here, like baking a cake or using cupcakes, are budget-friendly, ranging from $20 to $50, while grander gestures like wardrobe reveal or nursery setups could cost $100 or more. Custom decorations and props may add extra expenses.
Preparation Time: Simple ideas like scratch-off cards or balloon releases can be arranged in 1-3 days, while more elaborate plans like nursery reveals or wardrobe setups may take a few weeks to organize.
Creative Gender Reveal Party Ideas
Creative gender reveal parties can range from grand and extravagant to minimal and intimate, depending on your personal style and creativity of the idea. Here are a few creative gender reveal ideas for you to take inspiration from:
16. Unbox The Box
Get someone trusted to fill a gigantic box with blue or pink helium balloons. You and your partner can pull the string that’s keeping it all in together and release the balloons. Make sure to get photos of the exact moment the balloons escape.
17. Pop The Balloon
This is kind of a water balloon game. Pour a little blue or pink paint into one of the balloons and let the rest be just water. Secure them to something. Let the guests take a balloon each and see who gets the gender-revealing balloon.
18. Piñata Popping
This is a super fun way to do a gender reveal. Fill a piñata with pink or blue candy or confetti and let the guests hit it, break it, and reveal the gender. When it breaks, everyone will be showered with colored confetti or candy, and the gender will be revealed.
19. Holi Reveal
This gender reveal method allows everyone to know about the gender of the baby, except the parents-to-be. They throw pink or blue holi powder on the parents, surprising them with the gender, making it a perfect party planning game.
Here’s an even better idea. Keep the theme all-white. Let the guests unbox little containers containing either pink or blue colors and have a fun gender reveal party.
20. Sibling Reveals Gender
This works if you are having your second baby. Let the guests gather around. Let your child walk in and either hold up a sign revealing the gender of the baby or burst a balloon with blue or pink confetti in it.
21. Take A Guess
Let the guests choose sides and wear pink or blue ribbons on their wrists. Then, when dinner is done, go outside and use a party popper that either pops blue or pink to reveal the gender. The ones who guessed it right get extra candies as prizes.
22. Husband Handprinted Tees Reveal
Let your hubby announce the baby’s gender by walking into the party and putting his handprints on your tummy. For this, someone has to help him color his hands with blue or pink paint and help them to sneak up to you without being noticed. Ideally, you should wear white. It is a super cute way to reveal the baby’s gender.
23. Guessing Game Reveal
This is a game in which all the guests can participate. Ask them to guess the baby’s gender and write it on a piece of paper. Collect them all, and before the party gets over, announce what you are having. Those who guess it right win mini-prizes. This game also works for baby names, you can do a nursery decor and arrange the party there, giving pieces of paper to reveal the baby’s name.
24. Treasure Hunt Reveal
This can be a super fun idea. Plan a treasure hunt in which the guests can divide themselves into teams and look for a particular object. The object can be in blue or pink – you can get baby booties or a ball or a teddy bear. The team that uncovers the treasure gets a prize.
25. Baby Cake Reveal
Get a cute customized cake made. The reveal could be when the cake is wheeled into the room. This is a very cute gender reveal idea because you can get great pictures of the cake that you can keep forever!
26. Guess The Name

After every single guest has penned down their suggestion, you can reveal the gender and the name you decided on, or a name that caught your eye from the list.
27. Guess The Gender- Bows And Bowties Edition
If you want to go for a classic gender reveal, then this is the one! Create bows and bowties with ribbons or cloth for your guests to wear. Each guest will choose one and wear it throughout the party, until the grand reveal. The guests who chose the right gender can be rewarded with candies or small gifts.
28. Silly String Fight

During the reveal, you and your partner can spray the Silly String at each other and the guests to reveal the secret!
29. An Erupting Volcano
Are you a science geek and want to do something amazing for your gender reveal? Well, nothing is more fun than watching a volcano spew blue or pink lava! Fill a plastic bottle with water and place it on a tray. Put play dough of any color except pink or blue around the bottle to cover it. Now, pour a mixture of baking soda and pink or blue food coloring inside the bottle. During the reveal, pour some vinegar into the bottle and let the lava announce the gender.
30. Foggy Surprise
If you want a safe alternative for your gender reveal party, this is the one. Get a fog machine with lights (blue or pink) and when all the guests have gathered, reveal the gender of your baby. It is a simple yet classic way to celebrate the newest addition to the family.
31. Go Fish
You can use an inflatable swimming pool for this idea. Fill the pool with water and mix any dark color be it red, green, or purple with the water. Make sure that the water becomes opaque.

On Christmas Eve, switch on the lights decorated on the tree and find out whether it’s a girl or a boy.
34. Ride Pink Or Blue?
If you are not afraid to ride a bubblegum pink or sky blue car, then this one can be a fun idea to try! You can get one of your friends to have your car painted as a part of the gender reveal fun. You can also ask them to attach some balloons to the car. Ask one of your friends to drive the car down the road in front of your house when the guests gather outside for the big reveal.
35. Sing A Song
You can either compose a song about your unborn child by yourself or ask someone to do it for you after sharing the baby’s gender with them. During the gender reveal party, when all the guests have gathered around, sing this song to let your dear ones know what you are having.
36. Pumpkin Reveal
If you are having a gender reveal party close to Halloween, this is the best way to reveal the gender of your baby. Hollow the pumpkin and place a blue or pink smoke grenade inside.

Get 10 eggs and hard boil all but one. Color half of the eggs pink and the other half blue. Dye the egg that is not hard-boiled blue if you are having a boy or pink if you are having a girl.

When it breaks in a runny mess, everyone will know what you are going to have.
50. Pet Photo Reveal
If you are a doggy mom, you can include your dog in the reveal. Dress your dog up in blue or pink items and have him stand beside a sign that says, ‘I am so excited to meet my new baby brother or sister. Woof woof’ or something else you like. Cute!
51. Cotton Candy Reveal
This is easier to arrange if you are going to have a baby girl. Hire a cotton candy man and have him hand over the candies with an ‘It’s a girl’ tag to all your guests. Fun + yummy!

Now, you and your husband have to take turns flipping the circular cutouts, revealing either blue or pink color on the other side. Whichever color matches diagonally, vertically, or horizontally will tell the guests what you are having.
53. A Wrestling Reveal
A fun and entertaining way to reveal the gender of your baby to everyone! You can ask two of your friends to dress up in two cartoon characters- one male and one female and have a play fight. Whichever gender wins, is the gender of your baby!
54. Blow Some Bubbles
You can plan a fun picnic party with your family and close friends to celebrate your pregnancy and reveal the gender of your baby. Ask a member of the family or friend to add some food coloring to the bubble solution to make it pink or blue. Reveal the gender of your baby by blowing some colorful bubbles on a sunny day and enjoy!
55. Glow Stick Party
If you love having parties at night and being surrounded by plenty of glow sticks, then this is the one for you. Hand glow sticks to the guests and ask them to hold on to it until the announcement. Once everyone has arrived, turn off the lights and ask the guests to turn them on. If it’s a boy, the glow stick will light up in blue, and if it’s a girl, it will glow in pink.
56. Magic T-Shirts
There are T-shirts that reveal a hidden message when they are wet. So you can pre-order a lot of them and ask your guests to change into them before the reveal. You can use water guns to spray each other with water and once the t-shirts get wet, the gender of the baby will be revealed. A great way to make it fun and memorable!
57. Book Reveal
If you are a bookworm then this idea might be up to your liking. Choose a few books from your bookshelf and place them on a table. Put a blue or pink sheet of paper inside one of them, and keep the others as it is. Make sure the sheet is smaller than the book sizes and all the book sizes are more or less similar. Also, put the sheet somewhere in between the pages so it is harder to find. During the reveal, ask two guests to participate and take turns opening the book until they find the one that reveals if it’s a boy or a girl!
58. A Word Search
Search for an online printable where you can find the words boy or girl 9-10 times. Opt for the one according to the gender of your baby- if your baby is a girl, look for a printable that mentions ‘girl’ 10 times and ‘boy’ 9 times, or vice versa. A fun way for everyone to figure out the gender of your baby!
59. Dart Art Reveal
If you wish to have something that reminds you of the moment that you got to know the gender of your baby, then this is the perfect way to do so. Attach a couple of balloons filled with shades of either pink or blue to a blank canvas and toss a dart to pop them one by one. You can frame the canvas and fix it in your baby’s room.
60. Straw Surprise
Purchase color-changing straws and put them in ice-cold drinks. The material of the straws will react with ice-cold liquid and will reveal if it’s a boy or a girl! A fun way to combine surprise and refreshment, no?
61. Ultrasound Filter
Use a pink or blue-tinted photo filter to snap a photo of the ultrasound. You can either reveal a printed photo of a pink or blue-tinted ultrasound in a grand way at your gender reveal party or email it to your loved ones if you are not organizing a party or if they stay far away.
62. Baby Calendar Countdown
If you are up for a long week of fun that leads up to the party, then you can go ahead with this idea. Create a calendar with a countdown to the big reveal day. Each day, have a different guest open a labeled envelope or box containing a small gender-related item. But make sure that the answer isn’t too predictable because you need to keep up the suspense until the grand reveal.
63. A Dragon Surprise
If you are a fan of Game of Thrones, then you will be thrilled about this reveal idea. The only thing you have to do is order heat-activated, color-changing dragon eggs online according to the gender of your baby. If you want it to be a surprise, ask a friend or family to place the order. Have a Game of Thrones-themed gender reveal party and announce whether you are having a Lord or a Lady!

Tips For Planning A Gender Reveal Party
Planning a gender reveal party can be as exciting as the big reveal itself. Some creative ideas and a little effort can make it an unforgettable experience for you and for your guests. Melissa Jakes, CEO and founder of Rescue Event Planning based in Washington DC, says, “One of the most common issues people face is poor planning and overcomplication. With gender reveals becoming increasingly creative, hosts can feel pressured to pull off elaborate events.” Here are some key considerations for you while planning your special day.
- Consider the types of activities you can do indoors or outdoors depending on the current season and weather conditions.
- Pick a party theme that resonates with you and your husband.
- Color and decorations will be great additions to make everything pop. There are many ways to add them and bring the theme together.
- Plan engaging activities so your guests will have fun. You can try guessing games, a fun word search, a piñata popping challenge, a grand entrance reveal with a theme, or just a friendly bet that cuts it close.
- Designate when you want to reveal the surprise. Keep everyone informed and waiting while also ensuring not to let the surprise slip out.
- Be ready for capturing that moment. Have all that camera equipment for the record, or even better, set up a photo booth or hire a photographer.
- Don’t forget about food and drinks. Choose themed dishes that fit the season or color theme.
- Be sensitive when planning. This time may be sensitive to a few people as it tends to relate to gender stereotypes. Emphasize on the celebrations instead of supporting gender stereotypes.
Jake also suggests a few things to avoid complications. Set a budget to prevent overspending and keep the celebration simple to minimize stress. Confirm vendor deliveries ahead of time to avoid last-minute surprises, and always have a backup plan for outdoor events in case of unexpected weather. She also adds, “Another area for improvement is including key loved ones who may not be able to attend in person. A simple solution is incorporating virtual elements, like live-streaming the big reveal moment.”
Here is a sample checklist to make things easier for you:
Set a budget.
Pick a date and venue.
Choose a theme.
Plan the reveal method (e.g., cake, balloons, confetti).
Make a guest list and send invitations.
Order decorations and supplies.
Plan food and drinks.
Hire a photographer/videographer (optional).
Organize games and activities.
Double-check everything before the big day.
Remember, after all, that the fun of your gender reveal party is in the excitement you get to share with loved ones. The simplicity or grandeur of the final reveal is almost secondary to the love and excitement surrounding the growing family. Take these baby gender reveal ideas as springboards and then let creative juices flow to make the celebration uniquely yours. Happy planning, and congratulations on your upcoming arrival!
