March Madness is making a comeback this year! March 19-22^nd every game of madness week will be taking place in Indiana. It’s almost a breath of fresh air to know this event is being planned in 2021! With this enthusiasm comes great excitement. Turn it into something fun inside your ultrasound boutique walls!

Of course, you’ll need to add your St. Patrick’s Day décor, too, but you can have fun with the March Madness theme this year.

Adding March Madness to Your Boutique

Gender Tally Boards

Tally It Up

A tally board is a fun way to see the statistics roll in. You can decorate your board in any way that you please – cheerleaders and basketballs or bows and bowties! Step up the fun with a second tally board for guesses before parents find out the gender.

Rainbow of Love

It’s a great month to honor rainbow babies. Create a large rainbow for parents to add their rainbow baby’s name, gender, or nickname to! It will be a great photo opportunity and social media tag for your boutique.

Baby Name Games

You can run with this in so many directions!

Fishbowl Winnings

Clients can drop their baby name(s) into a fishbowl for the chance to win a fantastic prize! You can gift them a Heartbeat Animal, a donated gift card to the local baby boutique, even a spa day. Send out an email to invite recent visitors to come drop a name off, too. The more bodies that walk through the door, the more chances you have to make a sale in the boutique side of the business. (Make sure you are well-stocked and offer a 10-minute sneak peek session, where moms can just say hi to their baby and record a heartbeat quick!)

ABC’s

Hang an alphabet board on the wall, ask all the moms learning the gender, hiding the gender, hearing a heartbeat to add their top names to the list. They can add marks next to names that are doubled, etc. It’s a fun way to find the trends and see which names make it to the birth room!

Top Name List

Take the pressure off of a name reveal and let parents add or star their favorite names (even if they aren’t their #1 choice)! Add photos every few days to social media and tag your recent visitors to keep the conversation going.

No matter how you choose to celebrate the 3^rd month of 2021, have fun with it. We need more smiles, laughter, and memories worth revisiting again and again!
