Hosting My Sister's Baby Sprinkle Party
On July 10th, 2022, I had the pleasure of hosting the biggest family event of my life on behalf of my older sister. For 1 - 2 months prior, I was planning her Baby Sprinkle party and wanted to make sure that everything was as detail-oriented, organized, and aesthetic as possible. Since the pandemic did isolate us for a good 1-2 years from public events with family and friends, it was a great feeling to reunite with loved ones at a local park.
For this Baby Sprinkle event, I wanted to go all out with delicious catering options, an endless drink menu, a snacks station, a generous assortment of raffle prizes, and goodie bags for our guests to take home. Whenever I plan an event, I’m all about going from 0 to 100 and there’s no stopping at just 60%, haha! With the generosity of many sponsors, I was able to throw my sister an extravagant Baby Sprinkle party.
On the day of the Baby Sprinkle, I woke up at 6:00AM to work on some extra content creation for sponsors. With the help of my sister and brother-in-law, we literally JAMPACKED (Tetris, anybody?) their car full of boxes and headed to the park to set up. Also, a special shoutout to Wendy, Richie, and Lizzie for arriving to the event early to help me set up! :)
We are able to unload ALL of the boxes (ex: snacks, drinks, raffle prizes, goodie bags) around 8:00AM - 9:00AM. While my friends helped set things up aesthetically for the party, I was snapping away like the paparazzi with my DSLR of the entire party setup before our guests arrived at 11:00AM. As the hostess of this event, I greeted my sister’s friends, talked about some of the sponsors, and pointed them to the direction of the food, drinks, and snacks tables. When the clock struck 11:30AM, we announced the start of our giveaways. In other words, we gave away DOPE baby-related or lifestyle products to our guests and it was SO much fun to see who won what - the reactions were priceless and the laughter was endless.
Again, I wanted to give a special SHOUTOUT to all of our participating sponsors at this event - it wouldn’t have been the same without each and every one of them.
+ Sponsored Catering:
Campbell Pizza (Campbell, CA) - This is an Indian Pizza restaurant located in Campbell that offers a variety of pizza toppings, flavored wings, and more. Everything tasted absolutely amazing, but I wanted to give a shoutout to their Honey BBQ wings, which only lasted a good 5 minutes before it was devoured by our guests (LOL)!
7 Leaves Cafe (Campbell, CA) - 7 Leaves provided their delicious drinks for this hot day and it was definitely a popular choice with our guests. Our drink menu included Thai Green Tea, House Coffee, and Strawberry Hibiscus Tea.
+ Sponsored Drinks & Snacks:
Boxed Water: This water box company helps plant two trees when you post an Instagram photo with their water boxes with the hashtag #BetterPlanet. I personally love their water boxes and the packaging is aesthetic AF!
Fruit Bliss: We included mini figs for our goodie bags - my sister’s fave! ;)
gimMe Seaweed: I love these seaweed packs and so did the kids at our Baby Sprinkle event! Personally, I love eating them whenever I make the viral TikTok salmon bowl recipe at home. So yum! :)
Poppi: Prebiotic soda for the win! Lower calories and sugar than your average soda can, yeehaw ;)
Positive Beverages: Zero calorie sparkling water plus electrolytes and more? Sign me up!
Puffworks: Delicious puffs for babies, kids, and adults! These were a hit with my best friends - they love the dark chocolate puffs, LOL! Use discount code 10BSPRINK for 10% off your Puffworks purchase on Amazon (valid only throughout July 2022).
Quantum Squares: Caffeinated energy squares when you don’t want to drink a cup of coffee in the morning? Hell to the yessss. Use discount code MISSMISSCHELLE10 for 10% off your Quantum Squares purchase.
Rhythm Superfoods: Organic snacks lined up neatly on our snacks station for our guests to snack on or take home? Rhythm Superfoods had us covered with their Cauliflower Bites and Mushroom Crisps - yum!
Sweet Chaos: Introducing my family and my FAVORITE popcorn brand of all time! We took a variety of their popcorn flavors and inserted them in transparent goodie bags for our guests. What’s a party without popcorn after all? Also, a huge shoutout to my fam for being creative and cutting the flavor signs out and taping them to notecards so that each guest can decipher amongst the flavors at the party! Now that's how you throw a party ;)
Tosi Snacks: We served organic Tosi blueberry almond bars (which have 5g of protein!) and a variety of their superpops at the party. A snack that is easy to grab-and-go is a winner in my book - especially when it has protein for the gains ;)
TOST: TOST is SUCH a classy alcohol-free sparkling beverage to bring to a housewarming party…or a Baby Sprinkle! ;)
Wiley Wallaby: We had licorice for DAYS at this party. You could find it at our snacks station in addition to our goodie bags :)
+ Baby Sprinkle Raffle Prizes & Goodie Bag Sponsors:
Bentley Trike: A stroller that turns into a tricycle and can grow up with your kid from 6 months to 5+ years old? What is this sorcery?! Honestly, this is the coolest brand that I’ve ever heard of - my nephew loves speedracing his Bentley Trike around my parents’ garden and my niece loves sitting in it daily as a stroller!
Birch Robot: Can I just say that this is THE cutest kid clock brand I ever discovered? I’m 30 years old and YES, I have a clock by Birch Robot!!! The Koala clock is SO cute - I’ve linked it here for you guys to check out and it’s currently tick-tocking in my kitchen!

Rated 5/5 stars on Etsy with over 1,000 positive reviews, Julie is very quick and attentive to respond if you had any product questions as well. I loved chatting with her and customizing my sister’s diaper cake around an “It’s A Girl” & elephants theme :)

My dad the gardener ended up winning this product along with three other prizes (how this even possible), which is ideal for his lifestyle LOL!
Malie Organics: Did anybody say Hawaiian beauty products? Malie Organics has got you covered. I absolutely love this brand, as they also donated a few goodies at my birthday party a few years ago.

They were kind enough to donate one of their luxe spa kits and my cousin ended up winning it!

A special thank you to this specific brand for spoiling my sister with a brand new diaper bag! :)

Wildcubz: I have never heard of a splat mat until I discovered the brand Wildcubz. This brand designs the CUTEST splat mats for babies, which are essentially mats that you put underneath a highchair or chair to prevent messy spills during meal time. My niece has the cutest light blue polka dot splat mat and you can find a quick clip of it linked here.
Ziptop Baby: If there is anything silicone, reusable, and environmentally friendly, SIGN ME UP BABY! I already own reusable silicone bag products, but I have to shout out Zip Top Containers in general because they also make baby-sized animal pouches linked here. Aren’t these just the CUTEST?! It’s the perfect size to hold your child’s chips, pretzels, chopped fruit, and more! Zip Top Containers also carries small, medium, and large sized silicone bags, but they specifically donated these baby-sized pouches as raffle prizes for our Baby Sprinkle event!
Again, it was such an honor hosting this Baby Sprinkle party on behalf of my sister and it was definitely great seeing a lot of familiar faces over good food, drinks, and raffle prizes! This party was definitely one for Mish’s event planning books and I SO look forward to hosting future events like this one!
