EVEN MORE BABY SHOWER GAMES

101) Guess How Many - (Materials: name tags, pen, paper) - As the baby shower guests arrive, ask them to pick a number between 0 and 20 (or however many guests are expected). Don't tell them why, and put the number on their name tag or perhaps a poster/namelist. (You can restrict numbers from being picked more than once, or you can allow it and just be prepared for a possible tie-breaker). Right before the mommy-to-be starts to open gifts, you announce that the number is the guest's guess at how many onesies (or bibs, or spoons, or whatever) will be received in the gifts! The entire winner of the number receives a baby shower gift! Thanks to Cathy from Chicago for this great baby shower game idea :)

102) TV Show Kids - (Materials: Paper and Pens) - Have the baby shower guests name all the kids in the  following TV show (tv names) or music groups: (Extra points for naming dogs or special guests)

Cosby Kids
Hannah Montana
Jackson 5
Hanson
The Jonas Brothers
Partridge Family
Family Ties
Brady Bunch
Waltons
Little House on the Prairie
The Osmond Family
Eight Is Enough

A really fun baby shower game! Thanks Todd for a great idea!

103) Baby Shower Count - (Materials: pens, paper) - Prior to the baby shower, have the baby shower planner choose a baby shower decoration theme (i.e., duckies, teddy bears, etc) and count them up. Tableware (i.e., Plates, napkins, cups) with the pattern would count as one each. At some point during the baby shower, have each guest guess how many of that object are in the room and write down their answers. (i.e., decorations, plates, napkins). This can be adapted to any theme. Give a baby shower gift to the winner. An easy but fun baby shower game thanks to Cathy.

104) Baby Shower Match - (Materials: Candy, Index Cards, Pens for scoring, a amateur artist to draw pictures or concepts, Paper) - A really fun baby shower game is the Match Game. Make up two boards with squares. On one board number the squares, on the other one use letters. Each board would have a matching idea under the square (a similar game to picture match or memory game). Under the numbers and letters are things pertaining to baby and birth that you can come up with (Birth, Labor Pains, Breast Feeding, Precious Baby, Preemie). For instance, under #5 and under letter A are the words "Labor pains". Each person calls out one letter and one number. The person who calls A 5 would make a match if both A and 5 have a matching idea/picture! The best part is the prizes. The match for "Labor pains" is a packet of Whoppers. The prize for "Breast feeding" would be Milk Duds or Milky Way, "Preemie" would be Runts. It takes a few for the guest to recognize the connection but they always get a big kick out of it.

105) Baby Shower Raffle - (Materials: baby shower gift and paper and pen or ticket to give everyone a number) - Let everyone know on the baby shower invite to bring diapers or a onesie to be entered in a raffle. This is a great way to have a baby shower game and at the same time give tons of onesies and diapers to the new parents to be who will need them! Have the raffle at the end of the party to build suspense or give out a few small baby shower gifts to a few winners! Thank you to Lottie for this great baby shower game and gift idea!

106) Baby Name Calling - (Materials: Name Tags, Pens) - Prepare name tags with various words of things that the mother-to-be will use during motherhood (e.g., Diaper, Pacifier, Onesie). Give guests a *name* tag when they arrive which is how they will have to be called during the Baby Shower Party. A really fun way to name call during the baby shower :) Cheers to Sally from Barking, Essex for this wonderful baby shower game!

107) Diaper Party Dad - (Materials: None other than an invite to all the father-to-be's friends) - While the mommy-to-be has a baby shower, the dad-to-be hosts a diaper party. At the party, all of his friends come to typically drink beer and play poker, but the admission to the party is a pack of diapers. Its always a nice social time for the future father, releases the other men from buying gifts (which can be a challenge for them), and makes sure the couple are stocked up on diapers. Thanks to Ashley for this wonderful idea!

108) Name the Duckies - (Materials: Paper and Pens) - For any baby ducky-themed baby shower or any baby shower for that matter, give everyone 3 minutes to think of as many types of ducks as possible. Examples include any of the duck species (Mallard, Wood Duck, Comb Duck, etc.), plus all of special, more fun ducks like:

The Aflac duck
Rubber Ducky
The Ugly Duckling
Donald Duck
Daisey Duck
Huey, Dewey and Louie and their lost brother Phooey Duck
Scrooge McDuck
Daffy Duck

Howard the Duck
The Mighty Ducks
NHL Anaheim Ducks
Duckman
Ming-Ming Duckling from the Wonderpets
Quacker from Tom and Jerry
Count Duckula the vampire duck
Ferdinand from the movie Babe
Disco Duck aka Rick Dees
and Long Duck Dong from Sixteen Candles

This is a really fun baby shower game for the whole group!

109) Dress The Baby - (Materials: Several rolls of toilet paper and a timer) - Divide the baby shower guests into groups of 4-5 people. Each group selected one member of the group to be the "baby". The other members of the group dressed the "baby" in a bonnet and diaper out of nothing but toilet paper. The Mommy to be judged the best outfit! Very fun and silly baby shower game! Thanks to Lakia for this great baby shower game!

110) Take Care of Baby Egg - (Materials: Hollowed Out Eggs or Easter Eggs, baby shower present, paper stuffed in one egg stating winner) - Everyone gets an egg (the fillable plastic Easter ones) to take care of. If you leave your egg unattended, some other observant momma can adopt it, and likewise, if you see an unattended egg, you should do the right thing and adopt it. Whoever has the most eggs at a set time gets a prize. Rules: You are permitted to get a babysitter for your egg(s) when you go to the rest room or whatever, but make sure it is someone you trust not to neglect your egg(s). You are not allowed put your egg in a pocket or purse or otherwise hide it. Also, as an added surprise, unbeknownst to the guests, one egg had a little paper baby inside, and whoever had that won a prize. Thanks to Linda in NY for this great baby shower game!

111) The Great Crave Game - (Materials: Paper and pens) - Have the mommy-to-be write down her cravings and have her describe them to their guests without saying the name of the food. It will give the baby shower guests a lot of laughs and reminiscing about their own "mommy wants". Thanks to Tami for this great baby shower game!

Thanks again to Sarah for this original baby shower game idea!

116) Name That Baby - (Materials: Paper and pens) - Ask everyone to write down the mommy-to-be's name and her husband's name - their first names only. Next, ask everyone to use only the letters in the parents-to-be's names to come up with names for the baby. If they know the sex of the baby, everyone who's playing should take that into consideration. Give everyone a time limit, like around two minutes, to list as many names as possible. Whoever comes up with the most names wins a prize. It's also fun to give a gift to the person who comes up with the most unique name.
