The first step towards organizing a baby sprinkle for a family member or a friend is the invitations. To find the perfect design, AptParenting has provided free printable baby sprinkle invitations in the following article.
A baby sprinkle for the father?
Of course! Why can’t daddy-to-be be included with the mom-to-be to celebrate the birth of their child? Traditions aside, nowadays, many couples like to experience various occasions and events together; without putting any labels on them.
We all have heard about a baby shower, but what in the world is a baby sprinkle? A relatively new concept, it is an occasion to celebrate the birth of baby #2, #3, or so on. The first-time mother-to-be gets an all-out baby shower where she receives tons and tons of presents for her first child. Now in order to welcome the arrival of a second, third, or fourth child, a baby sprinkle is an intimate gathering for the mother-to-be. Here, the expectation of gifts is minimal, and the only presents given are those that she really needs.
However, before a party or a gathering is organized, the first thing that is truly required is an invitation card. For whosoever is planning on hosting the party, we have provided a few ideas which you can print and send to the guests.
Printable Baby Sprinkle Cards
Cut the printout in half so that you can separate the front and back of the card, cut around the edges of the paper, and paste it on a piece of paperboard for durability.

Create Your Own Invitations
If neither of the card samples caught your interest, perhaps you’d like to make the invitations on your own. In that case, we have provided a few wording ideas for baby sprinkle invitations to choose from.

Even though a baby sprinkle is supposed to be a smaller version of a baby shower, do speak to the mother-to-be before you finalize all the details of the party. For a mother, each child is special and deserves a celebration like no other. Traditions come and go; what remains is how we choose to remember the important moments in our lives.
