1) Guess Mom's Tummy Size: (Materials- String or yarn and scissors) Have each woman pull the yarn to the size they believe would fit perfectly around the Mother-To-Be's center of her pregnant tummy. After everyone cuts their string, compare the results to the Mommy-To-Be's actual tummy. Give a prize to the woman who is the most close! This is a baby shower favorite.
2) Never say "Baby": (Materials- baby safety
pins or another type of baby object you can place on a string for each woman at
the party as well as string or yarn, enough for each woman to wear as a
necklace). Have each woman place the necklace with the baby safety pins around
her neck when she gets to the party. The rules for this baby shower game are
given out at the beginning of the baby shower that whenever someone says the
word "baby" during the shower, any woman who calls it out gets a pin from the
other woman who stated the word. At the end of the baby shower, the woman with
the most pins wins a prize.
3) How Many Baby Items Can You Name:
(Materials- pad of paper and pen for each woman). Have each woman write down as
many baby products as they can name (bottle, blanket, pacifier, etc) within 5
minutes. Sure it is easy at the beginning, but towards the last few minutes, the
women will start racking their brains for more :) Give a prize to the woman who
gets the most baby products named!
Personal Note: I don't think that it should be 5 minutes! that's a long time!
4) Who Can Make The Mother-To-Be's Baby:
(Materials - Baby magazines, Scissors, Glue, Paper). Have the women group up
into teams of 3 and give each 3 baby magazines. Have them cut out pieces of
different baby qualities and put together a picture of what they think the
Mother-To-Be's baby will look like. Have the Mother-To-Be pick which baby would
possibly look like hers the best! Give prizes to the winning team! One of the
top baby shower games!
5) Pin The Sperm on the Egg™ -

on the EggTM Game. A reminder of the old game of pin the tail on the donkey,

6) Guess How Many Safety Pins: (Materials- Safety
Pins and Jar). Pass around a jar full of baby safety pins. The one who guesses
the closest wins a baby shower prize. A baby shower game
favorite!
One of our visitors, Lynn, stated that
she filled a clear plastic container (about 50 qt size with disposable diapers)
all the same size (size 1) and had people guess how many diapers were in the
container. Of course, container and contents go to mom since, as we all know,
you can never have enough diapers. This baby shower game is very functional for
the mommy-to-be!
You can find great baby shower
decorations to help with the baby shower games as well as to decorate your
party!
7) How Well Do You Know Mommy-To-Be:
(Materials- Pre-Printed Form and pen for each woman). Have each women guess what
features she wants most on the baby from either her or her husband
(Daddy-To-Be). An example of this idea is found below:
| Attribute | Mommy | Daddy |
| Eyes | X | |
| Ears | X | |
| Nose | X | |
| Legs | X | |
| Hair | X | |
| Smile | X | |
| Intelligence | X | |
| Humor | X | |
| Other | X |
Select 25 attributes and ask everyone
to fill in the form from what each woman feels the "mommy-to-be's" point of
view" will be. After everyone checks off the list, have the mommy-to-be state
her preference. The one with the most correct match to the Mommy-To-Be wins a
prize. This is a great baby shower game!
8)
Place The Baby On The Mommy:
(Materials- Cutouts of a baby with tape and blindfold). Another one of our
favorite baby shower games is the baby shower version of Pin The Tail on the
Donkey. Blindfold each participant and then give them a paper baby to then
approach the mom and place the baby as close to the tummy as possible. The one
who gets closest to placing the paper baby on the pregnant tummy
wins.
9) Baby Shower Trivia Game
- (Materials: Paper, Pens) - Have someone from the baby shower look up some
great baby shower trivia prior to the party. Questions like: "How many babies
are born a year", "What is the most common color used in a baby's room?", "What
is the average weight of a baby?". Look up some great facts and have a ball
playing this great baby shower game with your friends and family!
10) Baby Bingo: (Materials- Pens, Pre-Printed Bingo
cards that use the numbers of how many people attend the baby shower) Prior to
opening the baby shower gifts, number each gift on the box starting with one. If
you know that 15 people will be attending your shower, pre-print bingo cards
with numbers 1 through 15 and randomly place them on 15 cards. When the
mommy-to-be's decides to open the presents, she grabs the present she wants to
open and reads the number out loud. As soon as someone receives bingo, they win
the baby shower game and the baby shower prize.
