Baby Shower Games

Many of these games are great for any crowd. It’s important to take into account the environment of the baby shower. For example, are you in need of co-ed baby shower games? Why should the mom-to-be have all the fun. Co-ed baby showers are all the rage and can be a blast if they are planned right. After all, it’s only right to celebrate the mom-to-be, new infant and dad! If budgeting is important, there are plenty of free baby shower games that are fun. Just do your best to pick something that the whole group can participate in and enjoy.

Guess the Baby Food
Get about 10 baby food jars and remove the labels. Number each jar lid 1-10. On a poster board tape the labels from the jars, and have the guest try to match them with the right baby food. Make sure you write the correct answer down so you can check them once everyone is done. This is a really fun and challenging baby shower game.

Winner takes "ALL"
This is a great baby shower idea! Before the baby shower starts, decorate an empty can and set it by the door. As guests arrive tell them that one of the baby shower games involves putting as much money as they want into the can. You could also pass it around after everyone arrives. At the end of the shower, ask everyone to write their name on a slip of paper along with their guess of how much money is in the can. Tell them whoever gets closest to the amount will get "ALL"... When you get a winner, give him or her a bottle of "ALL detergent"!!!

Pin the Pacifier on the Baby
It’s a classic party game with a baby shower twist. Instead of a donkey, you draw a big baby face on some construction paper and tape it to the wall. Then, make a bunch of paper pacifiers and put tacks through them. Have the guests stand about five feet away, blindfold them, spin them around three times and let them go. Whoever comes the closest to getting the pacifier in the baby’s mouth WINS.

Hot Potato Baby
Another classic party game with a baby shower twist! Guests stand in a circle and pass around a baby doll until the timer goes off. The guest caught with the baby is either out, or he/she has to give advice or tell an anecdote about the parents-to-be.

Big Baby
One of your guests can remember what it was like to be a baby in this baby shower game! It’s most fun to pick the father-to-be and have everyone take turns performing baby actions on him like changing a diaper, bottle feeding, or wiping the face.

Dedication Tree
A touching way to commemorate your baby’s entrance into the world. Have all the guests come to the baby shower prepared to help plant a baby tree in the back yard. You could even make a little plaque to place at the base of the tree.

Pregnant Belly Cast
Remember the pregnancy as well as the baby shower by allowing everyone to be involved in making a pregnant belly cast.

Name that Baby Food
For this baby shower game, buy 12 jars of baby food in pairs of like colors such as green beans and peas. With a permanent marker, number the lids of the jars 1 through 12. Then remove the labels, marking the jar number on the back of the corresponding label (hide the labels to use as an answer key). Have the guests examine the jars by sight only and guess what each one is. They can write their answers down on a piece of paper. The person with the most correct answers wins. After the game is over, tape the labels back on the jars and give the baby food to the mom-to-be.
