Playing Baby Shower Games

What’s a baby shower without games? Games are ever-present at baby showers and any other type of shower for that matter. It is a way to get all the guests together and perhaps even get to know one another. It also makes the baby shower enjoyable for everyone present.

There are many baby shower games resources on the internet that you can get for free. You can even try being a bit more creative by inventing some games yourself or even modifying some well-loved childhood games into baby-shower appropriate games.

The internet also provides you, the baby shower planner, with lists of great baby shower games, how they are played, and what materials are needed if any. The suggestions on these sites – many of them baby shower planning sites themselves – are very fun and are quite easy to follow. These are worth checking out.

And since baby showers these days tend to include the husband and the husbands and significant others of the guests, make sure you choose coed baby shower games that could also involve the males in the group. It could be team games that have all-male teams, or male-female teams. It’s up to you.

What to give for prizes?

Prizes don’t have to be big. After all, these are just little fun games. You can all play a game where the prize is food, i.e. winner gets a brownie or cookie. Have plenty of these at hand because even though your guests are adults, they’d still want to win. Other good game prizes are little office supplies such as sticky notes or tape flags.
