Baby Shower Game Ideas

Just like a bridal shower, a baby shower usually incorporates amusing games to entertain guests beyond just watching the mommy-to-be open presents all afternoon. A lot of people actually look forward to the games and expect that you'll play at least a couple.

Here are two games that I like to play in addition to giving door prizes for various things:

#1 Don’t say "baby”
To play this game give each guest a diaper pin to wear on their shirt when they arrive. Instruct each guest not to say the word "baby." If they say the word “baby” another guest can take their pin, working both ways if they hear someone else say it. At the end of the shower the person who has the most diaper pins wins!

#2 Baby Shower Price is Right
Gather about fifteen or twenty different baby items -- everything from a pack of diapers to a teething ring to a jar of baby food.
Have guests write down what they think each item costs. At the end of the game the person with the most correct answers wins a prize. As for the mom to be, present her with the game goodies in a big basket!

Enjoy Planning.
