Attending or hosting a baby shower can be a rather overwhelming experience. As a result, you need to find a way to make the entire endeavor worthwhile and allow for everyone to have a good time—particularly the mommy-to-be, of course! This is where baby shower games come into play. Anyone can give a present to the new mom and be invited somewhere for a sweet treat and finger food. It is the fun and camaraderie of baby shower games that make the event so special. However, no one wants to play the same old baby shower games that cause the entire party to become bored. The tried and true games, like guessing the baby’s weight or birth time, just will not cut it anymore. If you are ready to have a very special party, then you should look into these unique baby shower games instead of the ones your own mother played at her shower.
Look Who’s Talking
One of the most popular baby movies of its time (and it is still considered a classic today) is the film Look Who’s Talking – and, of course, its subsequent sibling movies. This unique baby shower game uses the main premise of the movie to create a fun way to giggle through the party. Every guest is given a random picture of a baby or toddler or perhaps have the option to pick out their own from the selections. Then, they get to create a caption for what the baby in their picture is thinking. The one voted the funniest wins!
Name That Baby Item
This game is a fun and unique way to take an element from your childhood and pull it into the shower. You will need several common – and perhaps a few uncommon – baby related items, such as a bottle, pacifier, diaper, etc. Then have the participants blindfold themselves and hand them one of the items. They must determine what the baby item is based only on touch, with the winner being the one to get the most correct answers.
Drink Up
If you want to have an element of speed or a special race at the baby shower, this is the game for you. All you need are a few inexpensive baby bottles and some type of drink such as punch, soda, milk, or even water. The participants must drink from the bottle exactly like a baby. The one who drinks the most of the liquid in the allotted time is declared the winner.
