Top TEN Baby Shower Games
Check out our top TEN Baby Shower Games!
1. Baby-Themed Price is Right
Pick ten baby-related items, ranging from diaper cream to infant formula to diapers, and have guests guess the current retail prices of each item (if you want to make it harder, you could add that they have to guess the price of that item at a certain national store, like Walmart or Target). The guest who gets the closest to the right price wins a prize!
2. Find the Safety Pins
To play, you’ll just need to place twenty safety pins in a bowl of dry rice. Blindfold the person and have them try to find them using their hands (it’s much hard than it looks or sounds!).
3. Baby Shower Gift Bingo
This is the perfect game to play when the mom-to-be is opening gifts! Give each guest a bingo card that features items onlinemonly found as gifts at a baby shower, such as bottles, pacifiers, diaper bag, gift cards, etc.
As the mommy-of-honor opens her gifts, guests mark off those items on their bingo cards until someone gets five in a row. Print your own Baby Shower Bingo Cards with this printable.
4. Don’t Say “Baby” Game
This game lasts the entire time! Start by giving every guest a safety pin or fun baby sticker. If the guest is caught saying the word “baby” any time during the shower, the pin/sticker is taken by the person who calls them on it. At the end of the shower, the person with the most pins/stickers wins a small gift.
5. Guess the Baby Game
When mailing out shower invites, ask each guest to bring their own baby photo to the event. When the guests arrive, have them place their baby photo up on a designated wall (they’ll also want to wear a name tag). Place numbered sticky notes/flags on each baby photo, making sure not to cover up the photos.
Then, have each guest correctly match the baby photos to the right guest. You can give each person a piece of paper and pencil so they can go around trying to correctly match the photo with the name and give a small prize to the person with the most wins.
6. Create the Baby Game
Will baby get Mommy’s blue eyes? Or Daddy’s blonde hair? To play, divide guests into equal groups and give each group a photocopied picture of mom and dad’s faces and a blank outline of a baby’s face. Give guests scissors, glue sticks and construction paper to cut out traits from each photo — the dad’s nose, mom’s chin — to piece together a single image on the baby face outline.
Display each team’s masterpieces and vote on the favorite!
7. What’s in the Diaper Game?
So funny! To play, you’ll need to purchase different chocolate candies (Snickers, Hershey’s, Reese’s, etc) and melt each variety inside a different diaper. Then, pass the diapers around and have the guests guess which “candy” is in which diaper. This game is so funny and gets lots of laughs!
8. Mom-to-Be Memory Game
Want to trick your guests? Place a bunch of different baby items on a tray and have the mom-to-be walk around the room asking each of the guests to look closely at the tray. Then have the mom-to-be to be leave the room and ask all the guests questions about the mom-to-be and nothing about the items on the tray. Suggested questions are “Was she wearing earrings?” or “Were her nails painted?”
9. Write a Diaper Message
Have each guest write a cute, funny, and/or encouraging message to the parents-to-be on the outer fold of a disposable diaper so that when the parents change the baby in the months to onlinee, they get to read a nice message. Plus, they’ll get to take home a nice supply of diapers!
10. Baby Names Through the Years
Test your guests baby name knowledge by checking out the Social Security Administration lists of the most popular baby names by decade. Then hand each guest a sheet of paper with four columns: 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s (or any decades you choose).
In each column, the guests will guess the top 5-10 names from each decade. You can include girl and boy names, or make it gender-specific (for example, 1990s girl names). The person who gets the most names right is the winner!
