MORE BABY SHOWER GAMES

21) Baby Alphabet Game - Give each woman at the baby shower a pen and a piece of paper that has the alphabet written vertically down the left side of the page. The object of the game is for the woman to write one word that has to do with babies next to each letter of the alphabet. Set a timer for two minutes and whoever has the most baby words wins. (For example: A=alphabet, B=bottle, C=cuddly bear, etc)

22) Baby Pictionary - Before the baby shower, create playing cards by writing words or phrases that have to do with babies on each card. During the baby shower, divide into teams and give each team a pen or pencil and pad of paper. Each round, one person from each team views a card and draws the word or phrase for her team to guess. The team that guesses correctly first earns one point. Set a timer for two minutes to keep the game moving along. If the timer goes off before a team guesses correctly, allow someone new from each team to draw and choose a new card. After playing 5-10 rounds, each team adds up their points and the team with the most wins. A prize should be given to each person on the team. a baby shower favorite.

23) The Baby Shower Name Game - Ask each guest to choose a baby name. If the sex is not known, have the women write down the name of boy or girl. If the sex of the baby is known, have them write down both a first and middle name. When they're done, set a timer and tell them to write as many words they can by using only the letters in the names they have chosen. Whoever writes the most words wins!

24) Guess the Chocolate - (Materials- 5-10 diapers with 5-10 different types of chocolates). This game is one of the funniest and most popular baby shower games. Have the baby shower host or appointed person moderately melt 5-10 different candy bars separately, placing each one in a diaper to be viewed by everyone. Mark each diaper as A, B, C, D, etc. Have everyone guess which candy is in each of the diapers. Make sure to use some candies that have nuts, toffee, caramel, etc. You are sure to get great laughs!

25) Guess the Baby Animal Name - Have each baby shower member write down every animal that has a specific and different name for its young. For example, Lion-cub, Cat-Kitten, Dog-Puppy, etc. Give everyone ten minutes to write down as many as they can think of. Read the winners out loud to see how many people got the same answers.

26) Name The Family (Materials - pad of paper and pen for each team or person). Another baby shower game favorite is to come up with as many animal "family" names as possible that are different (i.e., fish - school : wolves - pack: geese - gaggle: lions - pride: elephants - herd: etc). make it a little easier on each team by creating the name of the animal on each groups' sheet and have them guess the right word for that animal family.

27) Name The Baby (Materials - pad of paper and pen for each team or person). Have each team write down as many proper names of animal babies as possible (i.e., duck - duckling, fish - fry, lion - cub, cat - kitten, dog - puppy, and so on). Make it a little easier and give them the name of the animals and have them guess the babies. The internet is a great place to find the names of animal babies.

28) Creative Child Chocolate (3C's) Game - (Materials - chocolate bars of different types, pad of paper and pen for each team). Give each team one of each type of chocolate and have them associate something with the baby shower. For instance, Twix can be associated with Twins, Milky Way with Breast Feeding (milk), The Three Musketeers with Triplets, Hershey's Chocolate Kisses with baby kisses, etc. Have everyone read their answers outloud. A fun, creative and memorable baby shower game!

29) Baby Shower Lotto (Materials- Calendar with large calendar month dates, highlighter pen, and normal pen). Have the calendar of the month that the mother-to-be's baby is due at the front door for guests when they arrive. Each day is divided into two parts: am and pm for the guests to choose from in picking the date and general time the baby will be born. Make sure to have the due date highlighted. Guests can "buy in" to a lotto ticket for a certain day (am or pm) that they think the baby will be born. The guest who guesses closest wins a baby shower gift, of course given after the baby is born. The fun part of the game is that the lotto tickets can be purchased by using something other than money that is useful to the parents. Instruct guests beforehand that a lotto tickets may be purchased with a diaper pack, baby bottles or baby whipes, etc. (Thank you to our visitors who gave us this great baby shower game!)

30) Never Say Baby (Materials - beads for each guest to wear around their neck). Set the rules when the guests arrive and take a necklace that no-one is allowed to say the word "baby" during the baby shower or whoever hears these words from a guest, takes that guest's beads. The guest who collects the most by the end of the baby shower will get a prize. A very fun game and a baby shower favorite.

31) Mother, Mother, Who Am I (Materials - Pad of Paper and pencil/pen for each baby shower participant) - This is a real fun and quizzical game where you give clues about "Famous Mothers". For instance, who is the mother of nursery rhymes (Mother Goose), who is the mother of helping others (Mother Theresa), What mother went to the cubbard to fetch her poor doggy a bone? (Mother Hubbard), etc. This is a great baby shower game to play at the party and I am sure you can think of more Mother examples. "Click here for a list. We want to thank Kathy for setting up this great baby shower game!"

32) Do You Know What It Is (Materials: 10-15 baby items, 10-15 small paper bags, writing utensil, paper for each baby shower guest). Sort the baby items (q-tips, nail clippers, pacifier, etc.) into the paper bags (one item per bag) and number the bags 1-10 or 15. Give each guest a pad and pen and have them number 1-10 or 15 depending on how many bags you prepared and then hand out the bags randomly to the guests. Each guest or team at the baby shower will try to figure out what is in each bag based on what they can feel and/or hear (the bags can not be opened). The bags are passed around until everyone has had a chance to touch and write down their answers. The mother-to-be then opens each bag and shows it to the guests. The guest who gets the most correct gets a prize, if there's a tie they have to answer a question about the mother-to-be. For an added bonus, make a really hard item (shoulder pads, baby nail clippers) a bonus at the end; for the one who guessed it correctly gets a bonus prize (if there's a tie, have them answer a question about the mother-to-be).

33) Make A Baby (Materials: Small containers of play-dough). Each person at the baby shower is given a small container of play-dough and everyone has 5 minutes to create a baby (using just one container). Then each dough baby is placed on a plate and presented to the mother-to-be who then looks at each dough baby and decides who's she likes the best. The winner gets a prize. (Thanks to our baby shower visitor Craig for this baby shower game).

34) Feed The Baby (Materials: Bib, baby spoon and baby food jar for each couple that are chosen). The object was to be the first to feed a jar of food to your partner. Baby shower participants are broken up into two person teams. One teammate is given a bib and the other is given a tiny spoon. When the mother-to-be says go, begin feeding the participant who is the "baby". The first baby shower team to finish the jar wins. You will laugh hysterically as one of our visitors Myrtis told us! Enjoy the game!

35) Name That Baby Tune (Materials: CD Player or Cassette Player). Just like the popular game "Name That Tune", you can play the same game with baby songs. See which baby shower guest can guess the baby song the quickest. The person at the baby shower that guesses the most baby songs the quickest wins! Fun to also play in teams and keep score! This idea was sent in by one of our baby shower visitors so thanks!
