Baby Shower Game - Baby Item Game

There are a number of fun and exciting baby shower games which a hostess can select from when looking to choose the perfect one. If a game which involves both the guests and guest of honor is what the hostess wishes to choose, then the Baby Item Game is a great option.

Preparing For and Playing This Shower Game
In order to prepare for this game, the hostess will need to do a little baby item shopping in advance and purchase about 10 different items. She can choose from a number of inexpensive items such as bottles, spoons, diapers, wipes, etc. The hostess will bring the items to the baby shower in a big brown paper bag. Prior to playing the game, the mother-to-be will secretly choose 5 or so items from the bag and put them in another brown bag. When it comes time to play the game the guests will have to guess what items are in the guest of honor’s bag and the guest who gets the most number of items correct wins a prize.

Ideas for Prizes Which Can Be Awarded
When it comes to selecting prizes to award to the winners, the hostess has a number of options to choose from. Some perfect prize selections may include Godiva chocolates, small gift baskets or even some unique candle holders. The hostess may also decide to award more than one gift and hand out prizes to the 2nd and 3rd place winners along with the 1st place winner.

The baby item game is a great way for both the guests and guest of honor to have some fun during game time at the baby shower.

Baby Shower Game - Add-On Alphabet Memory Game

Memory games almost always lead to laughter, and this one is no exception. The guests will have to stretch their imaginations as they try to come up with unique baby items for each letter of the alphabet.

To play, have everyone in a circle. The first person names a baby item or something pertaining to babies and small children that begin with the letter A. The next person says the A-word and then adds a baby item starting with the letter B and so on. If you mess up, you are out. And the game resumes. The last person remaining or the first person to name the items A through Z without a mistake wins. An example is: A is for all night feedings, B is for bib, C is for cradle, D is for diaper, E is for earaches, etc.

Baby Shower Game - If I Were You

Give each guest a small piece of paper. On one side, have them write down a common problem or dilemma that new parents often face. They cannot share or discuss their ideas with each other. Ask them to turn their paper face down when they’re done. Now have your guests pass the paper – FACE DOWN – three people to their left. Without looking at the question on the other side, ask your guests to write the solution or answer to their original problem. Read the questions and answers out loud for lots of laughs.

Baby Shower Game - Pick Up the Prize

Teamwork is required in this game that will have you falling off your feet with laughter. The reward is a prize, if you can get to it before anyone else. Be careful though, you will need everyone else to help you get to where you can grab the reward.

First the group gets into a circle, facing outward and linking arms. A prize such as a candy bar, money, or other small gift, is placed in the center. The team must move in together to get to the prize. The person who grabs it first wins. This can be difficult because the group must work together to close up the circle tight enough for you to reach the prize, but you must get your hands into the center first to grab it without unlinking your arms. You can have several small prizes and put one at a time in the circle. Then once someone gets a prize they sit out. The next round would have one less person. By the last round it will just be two people, back to back, squirming for the prize!
