Baby Shower games are a wonderful addition to any Baby Shower. They can be used as a ice breaker to get things warmed up or they can be used to fill in time between other activities or as an optional activity for those who want to do something fun.

Some things that you want to think about before planning Baby Shower Games are to think of the target audience. What are the ages of people attending the baby shower and what types of games would they like. It is best to plan Baby Shower Games that encourage people to interact. When people talk to each other, work together, and talk they have more fun. It also helps to have some type of small prize. This helps motivated people, instills a little bit of friendly competition and gets people into the game. This does not need to be an expensive party favor or anything just something small and simple. A candy bar, a candle, bar of soap or any other fun trinket will work.

Nursery Rhyme fill In- This is an easy general game that can be played by everyone. Prepare some nursery rhymes before hand by deleting a few random words out of the text. Then read the nursery rhyme aloud and people try to guess the deleted word as your reading.

Baby Memory Game- This is a great memory game for the intellectual types in the crowd. Prepare a large tray with 10 to 15 baby items. Things like bottles, diapers, and so on. Then cover the tray with a blanket and place it in the middle of the room where everyone can easily view it. Take the blanket off for 10 to 15 seconds and then place the blanket back. You can then provide all the guests with a piece of paper and they write down all of the things thy can remember from the tray.

What Is the Mystery Taste? – Prepare this one ahead of time by purchasing a few different jars of baby food. Take the labels off or cover them with some opaque paper. Number the jars so you have a reference for the contents of each jar. Then have people take small bites and try to identify the food.

You Did What? – This can be a fun game for people that know a little bit about each other before coming to the shower. As people come to the shower have them complete a small piece of paper where they list 4 little known things about themselves. They do not need to write their name on the paper and then just collect all of the slips of paper in a bag or box. Then one at a time people pull out a paper, read it and try to guess who it is about.

Three Truths and a Lie- This is similar to the game above but another fun variation. As guests arrive have them write 4 things about themselves. One of the items that they write about themselves is a lie and the other three should be true. They will then read this aloud to the group and everyone will try to guess which one is the lie.

Baby Shower Games can be free, cheap and easy to put together yet they add a nice touch to the baby shower. People can become more relaxed and feel comfortable by playing baby shower games and it helps the interaction flow a little more smoothly. Often people are stuck talking about he weather, work or other mundane topics. By playing some fun baby shower games you can energize the crowd and create a fun open environment in which people can easily strike up spontaneous deep conversations.

i need help finding some printable baby shower games!?

All the baby shower printable games im finding you either have to pay for them or you have to buy software to have them. does anyone know of any sites that let you print for free? or where i could get some ideas from and maybe make them myself?! thanks so much! :)

My sister told me about a couple of games from her shower, that you could easily make yourself.

On a sheet of paper, have all of the letters of the alphabet listed. Guests have 4 minutes to come up with words relating to babies, pregnancy, or birth for each of the letters. The person with the most unique answers wins.

Have the guests come up with as many possible baby names using only the letters from the parents’ first and middle names.

She said that they had the chocolate in the diaper game, and it was pretty funny. She had several great pictures of my mom sniffing (what looked like) dirty diapers.

There was a game where the ladies had to try to pick safety pins out of a bowl of rice with their eyes closed. I have no idea why this would be hard, but she said it was really hard to tell them from the rice.

Have a matching game where the guests have to match celebrity parents and their children’s names… use some that are a little less well-known to add a challenge.

Have everyone bring a baby picture. The guest who can identify the most pictures correctly wins.

Not a game, but my sister said that one of her favorite parts of her shower was receiving a little book made from notecards that the guests filled out. They had parenting tips and messages of love for my sister and my nephew. It’s a cool little book. You could also include pictures from the shower.
