Bridal shower who to invite?

I think it’s up to you. Most of the time people will only bring their children that are girls anyway. To keep the kids busy what I did was I got a pack of crayons from Dollar tree and put 4-5 crayons in a baggie (usually wouldn’t, but because of Covid) and then got wedding coloring pages from Hobby Lobby and set them out at a table! The kids didn’t bother us at all!

This is entirely up to whomever is hosting the shower. Some can and want to accommodate children and others can't/don't want to. If children aren't invited, the invitations should just be addressed to the adult guest not "and family".

To be honest, I can't imagine a child having fun at any of the showers I have been to. Adult food, conversation, someone else opening gifts? Snooooooooooze (for a kid).

You can invite whoever you want.

Up to you! I’ve seen some kids at bridal showers before

Given that lingerie is a common gift at bridal showers, I'd feel weird having kids at my own shower. But you can invite who you want

This depends *entirely* on the region/culture/age of guests.

(Case in point, my mother was told repeatedly NOT to do this, but she did it anyway, but she is 70, and really did a hard ignore on the co-ed nature of the shower, and the part where I didn't want it.)

Kids were at our shower, but we had a co-ed shower, as I get really prickly about it just being about the bride (and, let's face it, I'm not the cook in the family). We were among the last of our friends to get married, so we've got a bunch of niblings, and, well, we enjoy their company.

Guest list is up to the guest of honor.

That's completely up to you whether you want kids in attendance or not

Anyone can be invited to a bridal shower. If you do not want kids, just let your shower host know that beforehand. They can address the invitation to those specifically invited.
