Fri, May 22, 2009
Playing these really fun baby shower games can get the party rocking. You can play a number of games and can include even the dads. Ensure that the mom to be is comfortable and doesn’t get tired when playing these games. If there are lots of people, it’s a great idea for everyone to introduce himself or herself as this will break the ice and make the games more enjoyable. These are some of the most fun baby shower games that you can play are:
- Guess the size of the mom-to-be’s tummy
This has to be definitely the most popular baby shower game that is played at the parties. Have a ball of string and yarn and a pair of scissors. The women will cut a piece of string that they believe will be the size of the mother-to-be tummy. Compare the results. The person who measured the closest to the size of mother-to-be tummy’s gets the prize.
- Name the baby items
Another popular baby shower game is “Name the baby items”. Hand out a piece of paper and pen to each woman. Ask them to write down the names of stuff that is used by babies in 5 minutes. After a minute or two many women will start racking their brains to list down more items. Anyhow, the person who writes down the maximum number of baby items wins the prize.
- This is another top favourite baby shower game - guess the number of safety pins
In a jar, put in as many safety pins as you can. Pass this jar around and have each woman take a guess. Give the prize to the person who was able to guess the closest. You can even modify this baby shower game. Take a real big plastic container and put in as many baby diapers as you can. Now let each woman make a guess on the number of diapers in the jar. The person whose guess is closest to the actual number wins the game. It sure is a cute way of having fun at the baby showers.
- Suck the bottle
Ever wondered why the father to be is left out or why the dad’s can’t take part. Well this is one game even the father’s can play. Fill up baby bottles with milk, juice or some alcoholic beverage (like beer for the dads). Let them suckle at the bottle like they were toddlers. The person who can suckle the fastest wins this baby shower game. It’s truly funny to see the big boys suckling the bottle but is great entertainment.
- This baby shower game is for the mother-to-be
A really fun and interesting game. Blindfold the mother to be and pace lots of baby stuff in a bag. Now tell her to take out a baby item and name it. The fun begins when you put in some crazy things and ask the mother they are.
- This is a classic rendition of pin-the-donkey
Instead of pin the donkey, its pin the mother. Simply blindfold a person and ask them to pin the mother-to-be tummy with any baby item. This baby shower game is very popular and the fathers can also join. But ensure that people don’t get carried away in their enthusiasm.
Play these baby shower games and have fun. Plan in advance with finger foods and get the baby shower party rocking.
