Baby Shower Games

Baby shower games can be a real blast if you take the time to plan games that all the people attending can enjoy. If your shower happens to be co-ed, then you will also want to make sure the baby shower game you choose is something the men can enjoy as well.

Baby shower games to play are so varied; you will have a hard time trying to pick just a few for your baby shower. Good baby shower games are ones that have an element of humour in them and are fast paced and fun. One such game might be the popular Day in the Life of a Mom (aka Distractions) where all the guests are given a series of challenges to complete, like putting a diaper on baby, folding laundry, heating a bottle etc. Have guests shout distractions loudly (someone at door, supper burnt, baby woke up early) and then see who completes their challenges the fastest.

Baby shower party games can also be gag games, like Pin the Diaper on the Baby Boy – a game where Mom is blindfolded (if she’s in the mood to play this game) and is about to diaper a baby boy. Someone then squirts her with a small water pistol to prepare her for the little surprises we get when diapering a baby boy.

As you can see games for baby showers can be really easy to set up and a lot of fun to play. Stuck on what to play? Can’t think of any good ideas? Try looking for games to play at a baby shower on the Internet. You’ll find so many, you’ll wonder why you didn’t start looking there in the first place. With some luck, you will immediately find printable baby shower games.

If you can’t really afford to be buying baby shower games, there are definitely many sites on the Net that offer free sections with free baby shower games, and free printable baby shower games. Of course you might be crafty enough to make up your own games, or have younger children you know make up games you can play. Generally speaking though, a free baby shower game is really easy to find.

For instance, once you find a site with free printable baby shower games, you can do several things. Print out one page and then photocopy the number you need for your baby shower guests, or you could just print out the number of games you need right away on your printer. Baby shower games to print for free are usually ones you will have a great time playing, and can adapt to suit your audience.

There are a couple of new games on the market that just might make your baby shower even more fun. The baby shower Ultrasound games, also called Itty Bitty Baby Parts, is where guests just try and guess at the ultrasound pictures on each card. Not an easy game, but a really fun and educational one.

Game number two that seems to be quite well liked is the baby shower game Word Scramble. All the words are maternity related and the guests have to unscramble their meanings within 5 to 10 minutes. Winner gets a small gift.
