Creative and Fun New Baby Announcement Ideas

Welcoming a new baby will have you buzzing with excitement, and sharing the news with friends and family is the best part. Whether you’re looking for a sweet and simple announcement or something playful and unique, we know baby reveals are all the rage so here are some of the best new baby announcement ideas to make the big reveal memorable – including options you can create with Funky Pigeon!

Tell Dad with a Special Surprise

Want a fun way to surprise the dad-to-be? Consider starting the announcements at home by gifting him a “Dad to Be” mug or one with a personalised message on. Imagine his reaction when he realises he’s going to be a dad. It’s a small gesture with a heartfelt impact, perfect for a first-time dad-to-be. 

Grandparents-to-Be Announcement

Surprise the grandparents with a baby announcement gift just for them! Reveal the big news by gifting them with a “Soon to Be Grandparents” message on a Funky Pigeon personalised gift; you could create an announcement T-shirt that lets them know they’ll be welcoming a new grandchild and that they can keep as a keepsake too. You could also pair the shirt with a personalised card, perhaps with a little teaser of your most recent scan?

Siblings Welcoming Baby: 2nd Baby Announcement Ideas

It’s time to announce your 2nd (or 3rd!) baby, so make it a moment to remember for the eldest sibling too. A cute and meaningful way to involve your firstborn in the announcement is by having them wear a “Big Sister” or “Big Brother” T-shirt for them to feel included and also for everyone else to see and hopefully figure out the news.

Christmas Baby Announcement Ideas

With Christmas on the way, why not combine holiday cheer with your big news? Here are a few festive ideas for announcing your little one:

Baby’s First Christmas Ornament

Create a bauble with the words “Coming Christmas 2024 [Due Date]”, hang it on the tree and wait for your family to notice the exciting new decoration!

While, if your little one is with you by Christmas – how about a baby’s first Christmas tree decoration?

Christmas Card Surprise

Send all your loved ones an announcement photo or message saying, “We’ve been given the best gift of all this year – Baby [Last Name] is on the way!”, because what a sweet way to share the news while spreading festive cheer to friends and family right?

Whatever your style, there’s a unique baby announcement idea that will make the moment unforgettable. With Funky Pigeon’s range of cards and photo products, you can add those extra-special touches to your announcement.
