Advice for Years Ahead - At my mother's baby shower (there's 18 years between me and my sissy) we had every one draw a # from a bowl (as many numbers as there are guests--mom and hostess too starting with 0 for the birth day ). The # represented the future age of the baby
We gave every one a piece of pretty paper and a matching envelope and had then write a letter to the baby at that age. No one is aloud to read it. They were sealed and given to my mom to open on future birthdays. My mom really enjoyed opening the letters. They included everything from advice to funny stories about my mom. Bri-Anne
Blindfolded baby feed - We played this game at my baby shower. What you do is pair up 2 people and blind fold each of them.Have them get down on the floor on all 4's. Give one of them a jar of baby food and a baby spoon. Have that person stick the handle of the spoon in their mouth. Then have them try to feed the other person while they are both blind folded. The group that finish's first wins oh and they have to make it in there mouth!!! This game is really funny and you want to make sure that you take pictures of this!!! *Heather*

Each person at the shower can buy one raffle ticket for a $1 or ten for $5. At the end, a winner wins a nice prize like a gift certificate for dinner or Walmart. Sometimes if you have extra prizes you can raffle prizes left over. The money collected starts the baby's 1st bank account. Julie U.

**I recently had a baby shower for my daughter and used your site for ideas. I wanted to come up with an original game or two and I got raves from everyone. Here's what I did...
Name that Baby Tune Artist - I searched online at Lyrics.com for songs using the word 'Baby.' I then downloaded ten songs that I selected from Walmart.com (88 cents each). I wanted to cover a range of time periods to give the older moms and the younger moms a better chance at guessing the artists. I had songs such as Cat Stevens (Wild World), Peter Frampton (Baby, I love your ways), the Supremes, and the Drifters. I would begin playing the song and the first person to yell out the correct artist got a point. At the end of the game, I gave a prize to the top two guessers.
Couple Facts - The second game was also original. I came up with a list of facts about the couple having the baby that people who are close to them should know. In some cases I put a twist on the fact to make if false. Some examples include, the nickname of xxx (father-to-be) is..., the mother-to-be currently drives a Toyota Scion, and the mother-to-be use to compete in gymnastics. At the end of the list of checkboxes, I included two extra credit points (two points each), whereas the check boxes that are selected and should be were worth 1 point each. The two extra point questions were fill in the blank:
The mother-to-be most often spends her free time....
Thank you! Candy T. from Dacula, Georgia
Pass the Prize - Here is a game that is a lot of fun. Have everyone stand in a circle. Make the list up before everyone arrives. It would go like this:
Pass to a person with red hair.
Pass to person with glasses.
Pass to the across from you.
Count 3 people to left and pass to that person.
Pass to person who's not wearing socks, etc. etc.
You can make the list as many as you want and whatever you want to use. Give a gift to a person and then start going down the list. Whoever has the gift when you get to the end of the list wins the prize. If it is a big group you can start the game with 2 gifts to 2 different people. Kelli
Fast Puzzle Finisher - I bought 4 Anne Geddes mini puzzles (100 pcs or less can do). At least 3 people (young and old) in one puzzle participate. The group who finishes first wins and gets a prize!
Mommy Animal/Baby Animal - Make a list mother animals such as a horse, then ask each guest to put down the name of the baby version....colt! It is amazing how many people really don't know.
Get a book of nursery rhymes and write down the first few lines and see who can complete it. You can do this with many different ones and see who can remember the most.
BOBBING FOR COTTON BALLS: This game was played at a babyshower and i had a blast with it. All you need is a tub of vasaline, a medium platter and cotton balls......you put the cotton balls on the platter and have a guest come up one at a time to the table you have them rub some vasaline on the tip of there nose, when finished you have them place there hands behind there backs and give them a minute to bob for cotton balls and see how many they can catch and blow off or shake off there nose. the one with the most wins(tip apply a dab or more of vasaline) Brought to you by Robbi
"Pass the present game" - is a fun & funny game. have 3 presents wrapped up more than once & have each present wrapped more than the other present. pick 8 of your guest (try and pick the people that traveled from diffirent cities) & have them sit in a circle. give the 3 presents (spread them out within the circle) to three of your guest within the circle.have someone to stand by the music to turn on/off. as the music plays they must keep passing the presents clockwise. when the music stops, who ever is holding a present gets to open it. but they CAN NOT KEEP it if it is not a present they can see. Thank you for the baby shower game idea - Eshana
Mommy's Name Game - Write down the Mother-To-Be's first and last name. Each person has a piece of paper and a pen. Set a timer for 5 minutes. Each person, using the letter's of mom-to-be's name, creates as many words as they can in that 5 minute period. When the timer goes off, each person counts the number of words they have. Here's the catch, for each word made, that person puts a dime per word into baby's first bank. The person with the most words wins a prize. This is a great way to start baby's college fund.
Heavy Purse - AFTER FIVE GRANDCHILDREN, I WAS TIRED OF ALL THE ROUTINE BABY SHOWER GAMES. AT THE LAST SHOWER WE HAD A SCALE AND WEIGHED EACH GUEST PURSE. THE GUEST WITH THE HEAVIEST PURSE WON A PRIZE. EVERYONE LOVED IT! Emailed to us from Susan H...this is funny!

What's That Smell? - This baby shower games is fun and exciting.get six disposable diapers or how ever many diapers you would like to use.each diaper should contain different smells which can be various things.[example] at my shower in diaper 1=orange juice,diaper 2=hot sauce diaper=mustard diaper4=vick;s vapor rub,diaper5=cinnamon,diaper6=relish. give each guest a pen and paper to put responses on. Have each guest smell each diaper and guess what each is whoever gets the most answers correct wins.
Puzzle/Nursery Rhyme/Sing - We played this game at the shower of a friend of mine. Everyone gets into groups and you should have about five or six teams of people. Every group gets an envelope. Inside every envelope is a puzzle. Basically, it was a nursery rhyme on paper cut into pieces so the group had to put it all together. The first group to put it together wins. But there's a catch, whoever finishes first has to stand up (as a group) and sing the nursery rhyme. It was hilarious! People were so happy they won, until you tell them (after winning) that they have to get up and sing. Totally worked out! You can have them put together as many nursery rhymes as you want. I usually work with about 4 or 5. Have fun with this one! And also, thank you for your FREE baby game ideas. Hunny Girl Kaneohe, Hawaii
Trivia Game: At my sister-in-law's baby shower, we played a trivia game (it helps if you can talk to the grandmother-to-be for correct answers). There were 10 multiple choice questions about the mother-to-be when she was a baby (any number of questions is fine). Some of the questions were, "How old was she when was pottytrained?" and "How much did she weigh at birth?" and "What was her favorite childhood toy?" It's even better if you put some gag answers in there. Here's an example:
What was the name of the doctor that delivered __mother's name here__ when she was born?
a) Dr Thomas Wayne
b) Dr James Stringer
c) Dr Jack Kevorkian
Everyone enjoyed it!
I hope others find it just as fun as we did! -Staci A
Cotton Ball Race - Have each guest scoop out as much or as little Vaseline from the container as they choose with out telling them the point of the game. Then have them put the amount they scooped out onto their nose. Then bring out a large bowl of cotton balls and have the guest take turns to see who can get the most cotton balls to stick to their nose with out using their hands and shake them onto the floor. A lot like bobbing for apples. Who ever gets the most cotton balls onto the floor only using their nose receives a prize. If you have a large shower, make sure to have plenty of cotton balls. This is a wonderful game to get everyone involved and laughing. Emailed to us from Cassie - Thank you!

The team that has not dropped their baby wins. Suggeted to us by Robin...thank you!
"Name That Baby Tune - This is one of my favorites, it's a great interactive shower game. I call it "Name That Baby Tune." For this game all you need is a recording device and songs with baby in the title. I make a tape of 10 songs 5- 10 secs each and have your guests try to figure out the name of the song and the artist. Be sure to tape the same clips twice and leave a brief pause between each song. Thank you Stacy for emailing this to us!
Baby in the Cake Game...Bake cupcakes of any flavor. Just before the cupcakes are done place a small baby doll (usually found at craft stores) in one of the cupcakes and continue to bake them (the baby will not melt).

Diaper Game - Divide into teams of two and have one person construct a diaper out of toilet paper on their team mate. After a few minutes have the mother to be decide which diaper is the best� or at least most interesting and that team wins a prize. I played this one at my baby shower. It was really funny. Emailed to us by Jennifer - Thank you!
Birthday cards for baby's life - I was at a shower where the parents to be knew the gender and the name of the baby so one of the activities was to make birthday cards for each of the first 18 years of the baby's life. Each person was given a year to make the card for. We had stickers, rubber stamps, foam shapes, gel pens and all kinds of crafty items available to make the cards. Not really a game but a really fun activity and hopefully the child will come to look forward to his cards from people he may not know by the time he is opening it. This would be a great activity for showers held after the baby is born. It was fun to see how creative people are. Elaine
Drop the dime: You will need a couple of dimes and a jar just big enough for the dime to fit in place the jar a ways away from the starting point and have an ending point to walk to, then have someone take the dime put in between their knees and walk to the jar and try to drop the dime in the jar. This is just a fun game to play it will have everyone laughing.(sent from first time mommy Julie Kay in California)

"While you were out video" ~ with the dad answering pre-asked questions on video. I had 2 gifts, one for the mom to be that was a dud and one that was a great gift. I ask if you can guess what your husband said to certain questions you would win, choices were "A,B, or C. The present won was dependant upon her answer.

Blow up some balloons, have all the men in the room (or women) put one under their shirts, and then have a "RACE" to see which one of them can tie their shoes the fastest!!

(Please note it is more difficult to drink out of a baby bottle then you think, so the smaller baby bottles are best to use.)
Dirty Diaper Game - Free Baby Shower Game Idea ~ We've seen this played a couple of ways.
Option 1. You'll need (5) cloth diapers or disposable diapers and some miniature candy bars (5 different flavors). Put a different mini candy bar in each diaper and slightly microwave them (be sure you keep track of which is which)! Pass the diapers around to see IF they can figure out what candy bar is in each diaper. This is a RIOT!!! Your guests will laugh the entire time! The person who guesses the most correctly WINS!
Option 2. You can hand make small individual diapers out of paper or fabric and put a small "stain" (chocolate, mustard, etc) in a winning diaper. As guests arrive give each person one to pin on their shirts. The guest who receives the "stained" diaper is the winner!

"It Takes Two" - Free Baby Shower Game Idea ~ Get two people and/or couple have them stand side by side. For example: man on left - woman on right. Have man's right hand and womans left hand to assist each other in dressing a "baby DOLL". As tiny as some babies may be it's amazing how difficult it is to dress a baby without tossing it around.

(This free baby shower game idea came from customer ~ Jenny ~ thank you!)
Guess the Baby Food - Free Baby Shower Game Idea ~ Have 10 (or any amount) baby food jars. Remove each label from the jars & number each jar lid 1-10.

Name-Tag Game ~ At my sister-in-law's baby shower each guest was given a nametag. Each name tag had an interesting word such as diaper, baby food, wipes, nipples, pacifier, receiving blanket, etc. When the guest received her nametag, that automatically became her new name. If the guests were caught using someones real name they had to put money(pennies, dollars, any amount) in a special basket for the baby.It was quite funny hearing everyone making comments like, "Is that present from Wipes?" and "Diaper, will you please pass me a napkin?". (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Julie ~ thank you!)
Mom-to-be's Name Game ~ We also spelled out the mom-to-be's name long ways on sheets of pink paper. We then asked the guests to think of baby names beginning with each of the letters in her name.

The Tray Game with a "TWIST" ~ Everyone knows how to play the tray game of course but this one has a little twist to it.

They need to know the answers to your questions about "The Mom-to-Be" attire. Of course the Mom-to-be has to leave out of the room.
Examples:
"What color shirt is she wearing?"

"How is her hair?"
"What color necklace if any?"
(This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us ~ thank you!)
Remember what's in the bag ~ Place small baby items (i.e. pins, pacifiers, thermometer, ointment, etc) in medium sized paperbags. Have the circulate in the room and have your guests guess what is in the bag. The guest with the most correct answers wins. Alissia mother of none, baby shower goer of many!! (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Alissia ~ thank you!)
Famous Mothers ~ Here's a baby shower game idea for you. We call this game "famous mothers". Pin the name of a famous mother on the back of each guest. Each guest mingles amongst the other guests and asks them yes or no questions to try to guess who they are. (Examples, "Am i still alive?" "Am i a movie star?") The first person to guess right wins a door prize. Typically, one of the guests has the name of the mother-to-be on their back. (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Leslie ~ thank you!)
Baby Food Game with a "twist" ~ Another version of the "baby food game"....choose 4 guests to participate and blind fold them as well as put a bib on them. This takes away some of their "senses"...just like when you are feeding a baby and they have no idea of what kind of food they are about to eat. Have the "mother to be" give each person a bite of 4-6 different kinds of baby food. Each blind folded person must guess at what kind of baby food that they ate....the person with the most correct...wins!! Its very comical to watch the facial expressions of those chose to partake in the baby food!! (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Lisa ~ thank you!)
Questions about the couple ~ Get a set of 10 to 20 questions about the expecting couple time & see who gets the most amount right, questions should be about how well they know them. Such as will they breast feed or not? Or what is the mothers madin name? and so on. (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us ~ thank you!)
Pin the diaper on a balloon ~ great for co-ed showers! ~ The parents to be race to put (the old-fashioned cloth and pin) diaper on a balloon. Whoever finishes first without popping the balloon, wins! While the other has to wear a baby bib! (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us ~ thank you!)
Pins in the Rice ~ At my fist baby shower my grandmother got a b=nice sized bowl and filled it up with rice.(uncooked, of course)...she put a nice amount of safety pins in the bowl. Each player must be blind folded and the one who can pull out as much pins in the rice WINS!!!!..It is a really funny thing to look at!! (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Diana ~ thank you!)
Remember that one? ~ The mum-to-be writes a list of 20-30 nursery rhyme questions ex: who did simple simon meet while going to the fair? Guests are all given a piece of paper, and have 3 minutes to answer as many as possible. You'll be surprised at how much we have all forgotten about our beloved childhood nursery rhymes!!! You'll find that you will kick yourself at times for not remembering the silly easy ones!!! (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Nicole ~ thank you!)
Whos Baby Is Born First? ~ For my sisters first baby shower someone told me about this game and actually it turned out to be way more fun that I ever imagined . Fist you go to a craft store and buy some of those little (tiny) plastic babys that you can use on decorations . It is real simple all you have to do is fill up some ice trays then drop the little babies in them . put them in the freezer and make sure they freeze all the way . When you guests arrive give them a small plastic cup with the ice cube in it . The object of the game is to see " whos baby is born first" . they are not allowed to take the baby out of the cup . It is sooo funny to see people try to defrost that little baby ( also to see who is cheating ) . It turned out to be a wonderful game. (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Shawnda ~ thank you!) PS We offer a game like this for sale... My Water Broke Game!
Baby Food Game with a Twist ~ In disposable diapers put the flavors of 10 or more different flavors of baby food into separate diapers (the diaper then looks soiled). Number the diapers and the flavors, pass the dirtied diapers around and let everyone guess at the look or the taste of the flavor in the diaper. It's really funny to see people lick at the flavor inside of the diaper. The person with the most correct guesses wins the game. (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by a customer ~ thank you!)
Mystery Guest Game ~ You have to play the games first for this to work, but I have never seen anything so funny. You have a friend that the host nor any of the guest have ever met. You give her a large purse or bag with about 20 things inside, some should be odd or funny as well as a few reg. "purse" things. Just as you have everyone seated, you announce that you are going to get started, as everyone starts to get quiet, your "guest" should enter and look confused. Have her come up to you or the host and ask if this is Sue's wedding shower. ( I was the only one there that knew of this game, the hosts and her mother were asking each other if they knew this person) Tell her no, and ask where she is supposed to be. She will then say she has the invitation in her bag and proceed to empty all of the contents on the head table. Wave a few around, be clumsy and a little loud, embarrassed, keep apologizing. She will then pull out an invitation with the address a few numbers off of where you are. Give her directions and have her clean up and leave. Everyone will be talking and laughing. Give them a few minutes then bring the guest back. Introduce her and then have the guests write down as many things as they can that were in the purse. When I did this at my SIL's shower everyone couldn't believe it when the guest came back in the 2nd time, then they all groaned when I told them what they had to do. (This free baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Dana ~ thank you!)
Game Prize Idea ~ At all the baby showers and bridal showers we take new pencils and have the guests use these for the games that require them to write down their answers and decorate them with curly ribbon and attach stamped baby items to them and have one a different color or number them and then at the end of the party the one with the correct color or the number the mother to be pulls out of a container wins the door prize and the quests can keep the decorated pencil to take home and use to remember the event they had such a good time at. (This idea was emailed to us by Renee ~ thank you!)
BABY ~ Write down the word baby on a piece of paper. Before anyone gets to the shower, put it under any seat where the guests will be sitting. Don't tell anyone about it. At the end of the shower, tell everyone to look under their seats for it. Whoever is in that seat at that time WINS!!! (This baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Sarah ~ thank you!)
What is in the bottle? ~ Get a brand new bottle and stuff it full of either safety q-tips or cottonballs (make sure you count them!). Pass the bottle around and have each guest write on a piece of paper how many they think are in the bottle. The closest one to the actual number wins and the bottle can go to the mommy to be as a useful gift! (can also fill with jelly beans or m&ms)(This baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Jennifer ~ thank you!)
Digital Camera ~ Designate someone to have a digital camera...as each guest arrives take a photo of them with the mother-to-be. If you have a large crowd...put round colored stickers on the guests so you know who has had their picture taken. Then develop the pictures in duplicate, mailing one back with your thank you and other set becomes a keepsake for the mother-to-be. Make sure the Thank You cards and envelopes are large enough to hold a 4x4 or 4x6 photo. Also, buy a photo album so the mother will have a ready made keepsake. I've done this at bridal and baby showers and everyone loves to get a picture back as a momento with the thank you. (This idea was emailed to us by a customer ~ thank you!)
Whose waterbag is going to break first? ~ I used this one for my baby shower and everyone loved it. You get some very tin baby dolls and some bags or cups. You fill the bag or cup with water in each one put a baby doll in it freeze it over night befor ethe baby shower. When your guests arrival give each one a bag or a cup which ever one you use. And the tell them whichever of their ice is water win the game. (This baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Aretha ~ thank you!)
Pudding Fest ~ get two couples or three or four. each couple will be blind folded. give each couple some vanilla or chocolate pudding and a spoon. Start the timer. Each couple has to feed the other couple all of the pudding at the same time. The first couple to finish the pudding without spilling any on the floor wins. This is hilarious and yummy.....Enjoy!!! (This baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Juanita ~ thank you!)
Cotton Balls in a Cup ~ We played this game at a friend of mine's shower and it was HILARIOUS! First, a player is blindfolded and spun around three times. Then they are led to a bowl of cotton balls on the floor or a low table (players will be crawling of course) and with their hands behind their back, they have a certain amount of time to use a spoon that is in their mouths to take the cotton balls from the bowl and put them into a cup that is on a chair or on the table near the bowl. The person to get the most cotton balls in the cup is the winner. This game was so funny to watch, but may be difficult to play if all the players are mommies to be that are too big to crawl! (This baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Mom 2 Be ~ thank you!)
Clothes Line Game ~ We played it at my sister's shower and it was a lot of fun! You get a bundle of clothes in a laundry basket, a clothes line and clothes pins. You have two people hold each end of the clothes line, then you have a guest hang as many clothes as they can in 30 seconds (this is the hard part) while talking on the phone and holding a baby. Some people use a doll and some people actually held my son (who was about a year old at the time and was very wiggly). It was a blast, we actually got some of the grandma's there to play too and they did pretty good. (This baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Mindy ~ thank you!)
Name Baby Items Game ~ Have two people extend a long yarn, string, ribbon. ect.(one person on each end) place about 20 or more colored clothes pins on a basket or tray, have the first player hold the basket or tray in one hand, have some one keep track of about 20 seconds on a timer, and another person keeps track of the baby items baing called so that they are not repeted. When the time starts, the player begins grabing one pin at a time, placing it on the string while player calls out a baby item (carseat, diaper, crib, ect.) per pin as fast as they can, when the time ends, the player must stop, pins that fall don't coun't. the person with the most pis wins. have fun playing and see how many baby items you can remember with out repeating any. (This baby shower game idea was emailed to us by Sandy ~ thank you!)
Feed the Baby ~ You need two people for this game one is the baby and one is the mommy. Each mommy needs a jar of baby food or chochlate pudding is even funner
with a baby spoon the mommy feeds the baby, the pair that's done first wins. This is so funny to watch. (This baby shower game idea was emailed to us by a customer ~ thank you!)
Baby's Price is Right ~ This is so much more fun than the tray game. You purchase all of the baby items you want to get and then set them on a tray. Ask everyone to guess the prices of each item.
