Baby
shower party game ideas??
This is the question which comes to every baby shower hostess’ mind
when she has to plan a baby shower and also brainstorm her mind to come
up with an innovative game idea. There is also so much to be done in so
little time. You have to organize and prepare invitations, food,
drinks, party favors, schedules, and activities. You don’t want your
baby shower to be exactly like every other shower your guests have
attended.
The challenge is to come up with new baby shower games and ideas that
aren’t too complicated. You don’t want to spend half an hour explaining
to everyone the rules of a five-minute game. You also want your games
to be entertaining for your guests. When the guests start to lose
interest, the game is basically over, whether it’s supposed to be or
not.
Let the baby games begin!
The best baby shower party game ideas are games that make your guests
interact with each other. People who attend baby showers all know the
guest of honor, of course, but they don’t all necessarily know each
other. There is a bit of awkwardness when the shower first begins. It’s
a good idea to come up with baby shower games ideas to break the ice
and let the guests get acquainted.
A great baby shower party game to play right off the bat is the
Introduction Game. The hostess starts by introducing herself, then
giving one descriptive detail about herself. This detail can be
anything. It could be her favorite color, dog’s name, her middle name
or even the last movie she saw or the book she’d read.
The next person in line has to add their name, a detail and repeat the
name of the hostess and her detail. It goes on down the line, with the
last person adding their name and detail. Then repeating the names and
details of all the other guests. By the time the game is over, everyone
will have had a few good laughs. And will have had a chance to talk to
each other more.
Don’t discount classic baby shower game ideas for free. The Baby Food
Game is always fun for everyone. Simply buy 5 different kinds of baby
food. Remove the labels. Mark each one with a number instead (be sure
to write down which number is which food). Prepare a paper plate for
each baby shower guest. Write the numbers 1-5 on each plate. Have each
guest put a little of the baby food from the jar with the corresponding
number.
At this point, the tasting begins. Each player writes down their best
guess as to what five baby foods they are eating. The player with the
most correct guesses wins. Be sure not to buy meat flavors just in case
any of your guests are vegetarians.
