#1 Onesie & Bib Decorating
I first came across this game at my friend’s baby shower, and I loved the concept! All of the young kids and preteens formed a circle and started drawing on bibs and onesies for most of the party. This baby shower game kept both the kids as well as the adult guests entertained, and they could socialize while they drew!
#2 Match The Baby Socks
This super fun baby sock game also results is a great gift for the mama-to-be! Buy a big variety pack of baby socks and mix them up on the floor. The guests who want to participate rush to match as many socks as possible and the winner with the most matched socks wins a prize! Afterwards you’ll surprise the mama-to-be with the pile of matched socks for her baby!
#3 Price Is Right
Price is right is a big crowd pleaser at baby shower parties! I suggest you tell the audience which store they would be buying these items from, so they have a range of where the price would be.
#4 Swing Shaking Balls Game
This fun game works not only is a crowd pleaser but works off the the tasty desserts! Attach the box to your waste and fight to be the first to shake out all of the toy balls.
#5 Don’t Say Baby
This is a classic game for a reason! However, a tip I give is to not start this game until AFTER refreshments or the meal is over. This allows your guests to mingle and get to know each other without the pressure of avoiding the baby word.
#6 Whose My Mama?
I played a game like this at my sister-in-love’s baby shower a few months ago, and I was surprised at how challenging this baby game actually was. Write down the name of the baby that belongs to the appropriate mother.
#7 Baby Shower BINGO
I am in LOVE with this baby game for a very good reason! The classic Baby Shower BINGO is typically played while the mom-to-be is opening presents. If a present she opens is on your BINGO card then you cross it off until you win. This is my favorite because it takes a lot of pressure off of the mom as people are more invested in what you received because they have a chance to win a prize.
#8 Family Feud
Who doesn’t enjoy a good game of family feud! This is a genuine blast for guests to play and has little to no set-up!
#9 Guess The Candies In The Jar
Guess how many candies are in the jar is a common game at baby showers, and I loved that my mom matched the candies to the theme of my baby shower. She hosted for me a ‘little pumpkin’ baby shower, so she put pumpkins and candy corn in a pacifier container! SO FREAKING CUTE!
#10 Mommy Or Daddy?
Super, SUPER fun idea to get both the dad-to-be and the mom-to-be involved in the games! My only advice on this game is let the dad or mom read off the answer sheet because some people want to hear why the couple chose one answer over another. Not a requirement, but I found this was more fun when I got to read the answers to the crowd. There was a lot of laughs!
#11 How Big Is Mommy’s Belly
We had this game at my baby shower, and my guests had so much fun trying to guess how big my belly was. I took a tour around the room to model how big I was, and they all had fun trying to guess. You need enough measuring tapes for people to pass around and share, so maybe buy a few more depending on how many guests you have attending.
#12 Decorate A Block For Baby
I love this baby shower game idea! Especially if there are going to be children at your baby shower event! You’ll receive a series of blocks to which they can draw on the block! Your guests would help make a toy your little boy or girl can play with after they’re born.
#13 Advice for Mama
This is a calmer, sentimental game and truly benefits the mother-to-be! This is the classic advice card game and doesn’t have a prize associated with it. Guests write down their baby predictions along with advice for the celebrating mother.
#14 Tie Your Shoe
This is a wonderful game to get men and women into the baby shower party games! You have your balloon ready as you go to tie your shoes. You can choose to let the winner be whoever does or DOESN’T pop their balloons. Mix up the rules and let the party be what you want it to be!
#15 Guess The Phrase Emoji Game
You’ve probably seen the emoji phrases by now, and this would be the baby shower game version of it! This is particularly fun for all generations as everyone by this point is pretty familiar with emojis.
#16 Baby Sock Hunt
A cute twist in the classic ‘pacifier hunt’ game, but with baby socks! You hide socks throughout the event for the guests to look for! The person with the most wins a prize and the mama can receive the socks as an added present!
#17 Baby Word Scramble
You get 50 cards along with an answer key. the simple yet elegant design would fit into any baby shower theme and is wonderful for the crowd who enjoys solving puzzles. Just make sure you have a time limit, otherwise you may be waiting a long time for a winner.
#18 Diaper Raffle
Seriously, do not pass up the baby diaper raffle game! This is a fun way for the guests to have a chance at winning a prize! But this particular game is a major aid for the mom as she can get her diaper collection started!
