Baby Gift Bing0
This classic baby shower game will keep your guests entertained while they open presents. It is also excellent for all ages.
You can print out or buy bingo cards. Some bingo cards come blank, and the guest writes one gift guess in each box. Other sets come with the gift items already listed. Either way, each person’s card should be unique.
As the mom-to-be opens the gifts, the guests will cross out or place their bingo pieces on any matching gifts on their card—the first guest to cross out a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line on their card wins.
Baby Animal Name Game
The Baby Animal Match-up Game is another classic baby shower game. The game's objective is to be the first guest to match up the baby names with each mother animal name listed on their card. For example, the baby name for a deer would be fawn, the baby name for a tiger is a cub, and so forth.
Nursery Rhyme Quiz
The Nursery Rhyme Quiz tests how well your guests know classic nursery rhymes. For example, do you know who the dish ran away with or what little boys are made of? The correct answer is that the dish ran away with the spoon, and little boys are made of snips, snails, and puppy dog tails! The guest with the most correct answers is the winner.
What's in Your Purse
What's in Your Purse is a great way to start your party. Your guests will search through their purses, hoping to find the items on their cards. Each item has a point value. For example, lipstick is worth 5 points, but if you have a flashlight, it is worth 20 points! The guest with the most points is the winner.
Pacifier Hunt
The Pacifier Scavenger Hunt is a super easy game that is great for all ages. Hide pacifiers throughout the shower. The guest who finds the most wins a prize.
You can either buy real pacifiers and give them to the mom-to-be after the shower or buy pacifier favors. These pacifier favors come in a set of 24 and work great for this type of game. One commenter noted they also worked great for a spit-the-pacifier contest.
Price is Right
Before the shower, create a list of baby items such as diapers, wipes, bottles, bibs, etc. Once you have the list or cards, you can print or buy cards that list common baby items, or you can research in-store or online prices.
If you want a visual at the shower, you can purchase the items and give them to the mom-to-be afterward.
At the shower, the guests will write down on their card or piece of paper how much they think each item costs. Then, they will write down the total for all of the items. Once everyone is finished, you will give them the actual price of everything and the actual grand total. The guest who is the closest without going over is the winner.
Wishes for Baby
Wishes for Baby is a great activity for your baby shower guests and provides a keepsake for the mom-to-be. Your guests will write down their wishes for the new sweet baby by completing the sentences on the card. For example, the card will say, "I hope you love..." and your guest will fill in the blank.
How Big is Mommy's Belly
How Big is Mommy's Belly is a classic shower game that encourages guests to mingle and have fun. To play, each guest cuts off a section of the tape with their best guess of the mom-to-be’s belly size. Once everyone is done with their guesses, the mom-to-be is measured, and the mom-to-be’s tape is compared to the length of all the guests. The guest with the closest guess wins.
