BABY SHOWER GAMES

ALL KINDS - Paperless - Guessing - Fun

• Make baby diapers out of napkins and place M&M's in them.  Take one diaper and place some mini chocolate chips in it.  Have each guest pick one diaper.   The person that has the dirty diaper (chocolate chips) is the winner.  Contributed by CF - thanks
• Use blue and pink pastel Kleenex tissues, small safety pins, mustard.  Fold Kleenex like a diaper, put a smudge of mustard inside the one you want to be the dirty diaper.  Guests will pin the diaper on their shirts or tops when they arrive.   The one with the dirty diaper wins a prize.  Contributed by round - thanks

• Before the mom-to-be comes to the shower, go around to all the guests with blue and pink yarn and ask them to cut it where they think it will fit around the middle of her belly.  Tape each persons name to their yarn.  After the mom arrives, try all of them and give a gift to whomever was the closest.  Contributed by LM - thanks.  Mom can stand in the middle of the room as this is done too.

• Take a roll of toilet paper and have the guest tear off a piece as big as they think the mother-to-be is.  Once everyone has torn a piece of the toilet paper, have the mother-to-be stand up and wrap the pieces around her belly.  The one closest to her size is the winner.  Contributed by CF - thanks

• Fill a clear baby bottle with pastel M&M's.  Each guest has to guess how many are in the bottle.  The exact guess (or closest) wins a prize.  Contributed by MK - thanks

• Similar to pin the tail on the donkey.  Draw a picture of a baby or use   poster.  Give each guest their own body part.  Blind fold guest and have them place it on the baby where it should go.   The closest wins a prize.  Contributed by Michelle - thanks

• You will need:
  1/2 bag of rice
  some safety pins
  a dinner plate or cake plate
  Pour the half bag of rice into the dinner plate or enough rise to cover the bottom of the plate.  Add the (closed) safety pins along with the rice and mix or stir up.   Blindfold the guests, one by one, and time them for 30 seconds.  The guest   must keep one had behind the back and use only one hand in the rice.  The guest who picks out the most pins wins.  Contributed by FL - thanks

• Everyone gets a safety pin (or diaper pin) to wear.  Whenever one person catches someone else saying the "word" the person that said the "word" has to give up his/her pin to the one who caught them.  The person who ends up wearing the most pins wins.  The "word" can be anything that is decided ahead of the party and then told to each guest.  You could use baby-cute-adorable-etc.   Everyone will have a good time playing it.  Contributed by Sharon - thanks

• Purchase 12 jars of baby food, remove the labels and number each jar (leave jars sealed).  Have the guests try to guess what is in each jar.  Then give the jars to the mother-to-be to use for her new arrival.  You may also want to use 3-4 as a blind taste test by mom or guests.  Contributed by Deb - thanks
• Remove labels and number jars.  Have each guess sniff contents and write down what baby food they think it is.  Contributed by Marlene - thanks
• Buy several jars of baby food - a few of each color - so they would look alike.   Remove labels from each jar and number the jars.  Be sure to write down what is in each jars before the label is removed.  Put them all on a tray and pass it around with toothpicks to taste.  Everyone guesses what each baby jar has in it.   Highly recommended - everyone really has to think - expressions on faces as food is tasted is extremely entertaining.  Contributed by Wendy - thanks

• Bring out a tray of baby items and let the guests observe it for about 3 minutes.   Take the tray away and the guest writes down everything that was on it.   Approximately a dozen or so items.  Cover with towel till ready to start.   REMEMBER to include the towel and tray as items that should be listed.  The items on the tray can them be given to the mom-to-be.  Contributed by Deb - thanks

• Put q-tips or cotton balls in a quart jar (or any jar you want to use).  Pass the jar around and the guests guess the quantity in the jar.  The closest wins a prize.  Contributed by Round - thanks

• Give each guest a paper plate and a pencil.  Have them place the plate on their head.  Hold plate with one hand and have them draw a baby on the plate with the other hand (include eyes, nose, mouth, legs, etc.  This is funny.  The closest plate that looks like a baby wins a prize.  Contributed by Michelle - thanks

• Items needed: 2 baby dolls, 2 boxes of baby wipes, 2 bottles of baby powder and diapers. Split guests into teams. At the sound of GO - the first team member must take the diaper off the baby, wipe the baby, put powder on and put on a clean diaper. Pass to the next team member and they repeat until they get to the last person. The first team to finish wins. Contributed by Mich - thanks

• Items needed: play money and prizes. When someone wins a game you play, give them a predetermined amount of play money. After you have finished all the games, start the auction. Auction off each prize and let people bid with the play money they won. Alot of fun. Contributed by Mich - thanks

• Items needed: diapers and babydoll. Divide guests into teams of two. One person can only use their right hand and the other person can only use their left hand. They must undress, put a new diaper on the baby, and redress the baby. First team done wins. It is fun using the cloth diapers with pins. Alot of fun.  Contributed by Tusi - thanks

• Items needed: diapers and 5 different candy bars. Melt the candy bars until they lose some of their shape and place some of the melted candy bar in each diaper. The goal is to get the guests to guess what each candy bar is. You need to number each diaper so you can also remember which candy bar is which. They can smell, look, taste, etc. The candy bars look bad in the diapers so you feel silly bringing the daipers up to your nose to smell (great photo moments) and of course you wonder if anyone is brave enough to taste. The person who guesses the most correct answers wins. Hint: Don't get candy bars that aren't well known. When they melt down and lose their shape they are hard to recognize so you can make it too difficult. .  Contributed by Jessica - thanks
