Book Description

March 2005
Are you tired of playing the same old games at every Baby shower?

Are you dreaming of hosting a Bridal Shower that will be talked about as much as the wedding?

Then you need BlackBerry Soul Celebrations ¯ a one-of-a-kind handbook for Bridal and Baby Showers that not only offers pages and pages of ready-to-use games that reflect the African-American lifestyle but party-planning worksheets and additional resources to get you organized. Traditional and non-traditional bridal and baby shower games with a cultural flair will inspire the party-planning diva in you. You will have a choice of more than one hundred innovative games in addition to creative themes that will surely enhance your event.

There are also games that pay tribute to the African-American man. Celebrate those men brave enough to attend your event by playing games from the Especially for the Brothers section. See how well both the men and women at your event remember a few of television’s favorite father figures such as Cliff Huxtable, James Evans, Bernie Mac and Michael Kyle.

For the party-planner there is nothing available like it in today's market. BlackBerry Soul Celebrations provides a recipe for making a successful shower. Available worksheets reduce the preparation process and smooth the path to success. No longer will needless hours be spent on customizing generic games or reusing games played at previous events due to a lack of creativity. Shower hosts will now be able to offer their guests games that not only reflect their lifestyles but also emulate their traditions and values. BlackBerry Soul Celebrations makes a wonderful gift for a special friend or family member, and is key to making your event a memorable occasion.

Spice up your event with BlackBerry Soul Celebrations.

Just like adding a sprinkle of brown sugar or a dash of cayenne pepper, this book will add a soulful flavor to any shower.

5.0 out of 5 stars BUY THIS BOOK!!, April 27, 2005
This review is from: BlackBerry Soul Celebrations: A Handbook for African-American Bridal and Baby Showers (Paperback)
I bought this book and really loved it! I needed some help planning a bridal shower for my best friend and this was definitely a life saver. I looked at some of the other shower books and they had the same things over and over. This book was different from everything I'd seen. There were so many games that I could relate to. The pictures are great as well. They reflect African-Americans which is something I hadn't seen in all the other books I looked at. My girlfriends and I had a ball playing the games from the Hip-hop and old school section. The games in the Television and Movie section were also fun. It's about time that someone did something like this. I would highly recommend it to everyone. Thanks to this book, my guests said it was the best shower they had been to.

This review is from: BlackBerry Soul Celebrations: A Handbook for African-American Bridal and Baby Showers (Paperback)
You have volunteered or have been snagged to host a bridal or baby shower and you do not know where to begin. Or, you have done this before and want to add a little spice to the same ole, same ole. BLACKBERRY SOUL CELEBRATIONS: A Handbook for African-American Bridal and Baby Showers by Kimberly K. Smith is a good place to start. Both the bridal and baby shower sections are filled with creative African-American themes that you can customize to your own liking. The author provides suggestions for budgeting, locations, invitations, games, and the list goes on. With more than 100 games, children and men can be included in the celebrations and feel a part of it. Smith brings it all together by providing plenty of online resources.

BLACKBERRY SOUL CELEBRATIONS: A Handbook for African-American Bridal and Baby Showers is a small book filled with a wealth of ideas to plan the best bridal or baby shower on any budget. It is set up in a user-friendly format with easy to photocopy pages. If you utilize the ideas within, you are sure to be a winner if you are lucky enough to be tagged the hostess of any event. It is also a nice gift for the person on your list who enjoys planning and hosting. I enjoy planning and hosting events and this self-help guide will come in handy in the future.
