Traditional or Unique: Baby Shower Game Ideas
There are many fun baby shower games that can be played on the day of the shower. Some of the games take more preparation than others since they use props or other materials to play the game properly. There are other baby shower game ideas that do not take much set up at all, only requiring guests to guess what is in a certain container or an answer to another question. These baby shower game ideas can be modified to fit any type of baby shower, from traditional to very unique. There are games that are appropriate to use in a religious setting and others that would not be appropriate there. Some of the games require individual play and others require teams and can work as ice breakers. There are others that are made to be used for all women showers and others for couples’ events.

There are some baby shower game ideas that require printing out materials to be used on the day of the shower. There are baby shower bingo games that are fun for the whole group to play. There are also some games that allow more than one person to win a prize at the same time, such as the right and left game. In this game, the guests sit in a circle and there are two to four gifts that are passed out at regular spaces around the circle. The number of gifts depends on the size of the group, but there should be a few guests in between each gift that do not have anything. The guest begin passing the gifts consistently around the circle while the host reads the story about the mother going to the hospital to have the child. During the story, the words ‘right’ and ‘left’ will appear, at which time the guests will need to change the direction that they are passing the gifts. At the end of the story there is the word ’stop’ at which point whoever is holding a gift gets to open it.
There is another funny baby shower game idea requires a little bit of set up. This baby shower game idea has a series of baby bottles that are filled with a type of drink, which can be milk, juice, or other beverage. When the host says, ‘Go’ the guests each take the bottle and drink it as fast as they possibly can through the nipple as a baby would. Whichever guest finishes first is the winner.
