The baby shower is the time for gifts and games.
Anyone who attends a baby shower for a friend, coworker, or relative knows how much fun it can be for everyone. The mother-to-be is the queen of the day and receives not only many gifts (for her baby and some for her) but also some party favors. The typical baby shower includes memorable games like:
– Name the Baby Items consists of writing down as many items related to babies (diapers, bottles, pacifiers, powder, etc.) as possible in a period of time (usually 1 to 5 minutes). Whoever names the most items wins and gets a prize.
– Pin the egg with the sperm. Similar to Pin the Tail on the Donkey but with a maternity theme and using a hand drawn egg and wavy looking “sperm”. The contestants are blindfolded and whoever is closest to the “sperm” conception wins a prize.
– Fill a diaper basket with disposable diapers and have the contestants guess how many are in it. The mom-to-be wins this one because she gets the prize of that hamper full of diapers, something she’ll never have enough of.
– Guess whose baby photo is whose. Ask attendees to bring a photo of their own as a baby, number them, then hang them on a wall and ask them to guess which photo belongs to which attendee. There’s no real prize here, but it’s still fun to see what the others looked like as babies.
– Guess the size of mom’s tummy and win a prize! Ask each guesser to measure a piece of string and cut it to the size they think their “girth” currently is. Then compare them with the real belly of the mother-to-be. Whoever made the closest guess wins a prize.
The prizes for each of these games can be really cheap trinkets or perhaps nicer options, depending on the host’s budget. It’s all for fun and celebration of the new baby.
