18. Pass the pacifier Give each guest a pencil/pen. Instruct guests to put the pencils in their mouths, and keep their hands behind their backs. Place a pacifier (the kind with the loop) on one players pencil, and have the players pass the pacifier from one person to another, around the room, without using their hands. If a player drops the pacifier, they are out of the game. Winner is the last person left in the game.
19. Pass the bottle Played like the game above, however guests transfer a baby bottle around the room with the bottle under their chins or between their knees.
20. My water broke Give each guest a water balloon, and have them place the balloon between their knees. Pair guests into teams if desired. Have the guests run or walk without dropping their water balloon. Once a balloon is dropped, that player/team is out of the game.
21. Teddy bear kiss Pass a teddy bear, or baby doll, around the room and have each guest kiss the bear. After everyone has kissed the bear, have them kiss the mom to be in the exact same spot they kissed the bear.
22. Diaper stacking Have guests compete to see who can stack diapers the highest without them toppling.
23. Pins in rice Hide very small safety pins in a bowl of rice. Without looking, have guests try to pull as many pins out of the rice as possible.
24. Time capsule Instruct guests to bring an item to the shower for baby's time capsule. Have guests write a letter, and place their item in the time capsule, then put away for safekeeping until baby is older. 25. Diaper races Have guests race to see who can properly diaper a baby the fastest while blindfolded. 26. Be the baby Choose one guest, usually the father-to-be, to be the baby. Have guests take turns performing actions such as dressing/feeding/burping the baby.
27. Plant a tree A simple activity. Have guests pitch-in to plant a tree in baby's honor. Very nice to watch the tree grow along with baby.
28. Watermelon baby Have enough watermelons on hand for each guest or per team. Provide things such as markers, tape, glue, paper, scissors, fake hair, etc. Have guests decorate their melon and award a prize for the best baby.
29. Belly Casting Allow guests to participate in making a belly cast for mom, and help decorate the finished product.
30. Pictionary
31. Bottle drinking races Have guests race to see who can drink soda/water from a baby bottle the quickest.
32. Bobbing for pacis Fill a large container with water or substance such as pudding or oatmeal. Place several pacifiers inside the water/mixture and without using their hands, have guests try to retrieve as many as possible with their mouths.
33. Feeding Time! Place a bunch of cotton balls in a large bowl. Set an empty bowl in front of it. The object of the game is to transfer cotton balls from one to the other while blindfolded. Blindfold the guests, one at a time, and hand them a large wooden spoon from the kitchen. Give them 30 seconds to scoop up as many cotton balls as possible and place them in the second bowl. This is harder than you think because the balls are almost weightless on the spoon and the blindfolded person has no idea how many cotton balls they've gotten, if any! The balls are counted after each guest. The guest who transferred the most wins!
34. Make a Baby Each person at the baby shower is given a small container of play-dough and everyone has 5 minutes to create a baby (using just one container). Then each dough baby is placed on a plate and presented to the mother-to-be who then looks at each dough baby and decides who's she likes the best. The winner gets a prize. (Thanks to our baby shower visitor Craig for this baby shower game).
35. Multi-Taskin’ Momma! Two people hold a clothesline, while each attendee takes a turn hanging up baby clothes. The trick is that they have to hang the clothes while holding the baby and talking on a cordless phone! The one who can hang the most clothes in one minute wins.
36. A Mother’s Purse Read of a list of items and each attendee tries to find it in her purse. You can assign a number of points for each item (the more unusual the item, the higher number of points). The person with the most points wins. Hint: Best for an all woman shower, especially when most are moms! Ideas for items are: A crayon and paper Something that is pink A safety pin Something that is blue A baby toy Two of something (for a twin's party) A picture of children or a baby A wet wipe A picture of a mother Invitation to the shower Cotton swabs The letters in the word "baby" written somewhere
37. Keep the Egg Have enough eggs on hand so that each guest will have an egg. Before the party, tie a different colored ribbon around each egg. As the guests arrive, or once all the guests have arrived (but before all the games begin), give each guest an egg and tell them to protect the egg as if it were their baby. Tell them they may set the egg down, but they must have the egg at the very end of the party. Before the guests start to leave, ask the guest to return their egg in exchange for a party favor. Then stand back and see how many still have their eggs (or if they remembered where they set them down!) and if they want to keep the egg or exchange it for a gift. Don’t be surprised if some guests have named their egg and decide to keep egg instead of taking the party favor! As a memento for the mother-to-be, you can use one of those empty plastic Easter eggs and stuff it with a few pairs of baby socks or anything that will fit inside the egg.
