Things to Do: Games

There are several games that you can play, ranging from old standards like charades, to more modern ideas like trivia games. A trip to your local toy store will fill you with several ideas of what could work.

However, you may feel like creating a game that has a kind of special baby shower feel to it; something that is entertaining and mildly competitive, but ties into the fact that it’s being played at a baby shower.

So in light of that, here are some great baby shower-specific games. You can alter these games in any way that you wish to specifically suit your theme.

Short on time and just want something tangible to work with? Then check out our beautiful baby shower printable games (oh happy day, they're free!).

• Game: The Winning Plate
  This neat little game involves what most people love in life: food! Simply put a picture of a baby beneath one of the plates that will be handed out to guests as they eat. Don’t tell anyone that the picture is there; just let them eat. When the eating part of the event is coming to a close, tell your guests to peek under their plate, and give the lucky guest who has the picture a prize!
  
  
• Game: The Price is Right
  People seem to love this game, because it’s based on what many feel is the best game show of all time: The Price is Right!
  
  
• Game: That… Was ME?
  This is a tremendously enjoyable game! Invite each guest to bring a baby picture of themselves. Collect each picture, and then put them on a giant board. During the baby shower, allow guests to go up and browse the big board of pictures.
