Here at Universal Ultrasound Diagnostics, we perform many gender scans for soon-to-be happy mothers and fathers. Every so often, we get asked for creative gender reveal ideas.
Here are our top 30.
1. Balloon Pop
A classic, fill loads of balloons with confetti and one with blue or pink confetti. Get your guests to stamp on them, until the gender is revealed.
