No one really likes the cheesy games that are often associated with baby showers. And, as more and more expectant mothers choose to have coed baby showers games need to be a bit less girly and silly. However, meaningful games and activities are still fun for all to get involved in. Creative, fun, and meaningful games and activities are best for coed baby showers because the men involved won’t feel like outsiders and everyone will participate.

A Scrapbook For The Future
A great game for your baby shower is to allow all of your guests to help create a forecast for your baby’s future. Each party guest will be given a page for a scrapbook, as well as materials to make their page really stand out. They’ll write or draw pictures to depict what they believe the future of your baby will be. Since each person will have a different idea and a different way to convey their vision, it can be quite comical.

These forecasts can be serious, heartfelt, or even silly, let each guest decide. Doing this in a scrapbook theme is really fun because it’ll be meaningful and fun while it’s being put together and also years down the road when baby is all grown up and you can reflect back on how accurate each forecast was.

Once everyone has completed their drawings or writings each person will share theirs or the mother to be will share them. Once they have all been shared and laughter and tears all the pages will be put together to form a scrapbook for the future. Years from the day of the baby shower, mother and child can read through the forecasts and laugh, and possibly even cry.

An Added Twist
If you want to add a bit more excitement, after the forecasts have been made they will be collected. Each forecast will then be read aloud and then party guests will guess who wrote what. Guests will have fun hearing the forecasts as well as guessing who wrote what!
