Baby Shower Games

Are you planning a baby shower for someone special? Congratulations! A new baby is one of life’s most exciting and wonderful events and deserves to be hugely celebrated.

Planning a baby shower is lots of fun, but it’s no easy task. Usually someone is specifically assigned to plan the baby shower games. Often times the mother-to-be dreads this part of her shower if the game involves highlighting her girth. A common baby shower activity is to guess the inches of mom-to-be’s belly or guesstimate her size by using a piece of toilet paper. This can be quite embarrassing to a very pregnant woman even if she goes along with it as if it doesn’t.

My advice is to get creative and pick a game that is unique and/or meaningful that the guest of honor and everyone else will enjoy. Here are some ideas along those lines:

1. Pearls of Wisdom (or more simply put, Baby Advice)

Everyone wants to pass along their best-kept baby secrets! Help them out and give guests a place to write their best wishes and best new baby advice for Mom and Dad. Collect the advice after the shower for a memorable addition to Baby’s scrapbook.

2. Things in Mommy’s Purse

Do you know who brought the biggest purse? She could be the big winner! Use this fun checklist to see who has the most – and the most unusual – items in her purse!

3. Baby Seussville

Mom and Dad will be reading plenty of stories to their new bundle of joy. Help them out as you try to finish the title of these popular Children’s books! For added fun, all the answers are found in the word search puzzle, too. Answer key included.
