Baby Showers Are More Fun With Baby Shower Games

Who would not be so excited for a first born baby? The dad-to-be, relatives and friends must be all eager to see the coming of a new life. However, there is no one more excited than the new mom-to-be. To celebrate the coming of a new life, a baby shower is prepared. It is an occasion most anticipated by a starting family especially the baby shower games.

Family, relatives and friends are invited to join the baby shower and participate in baby shower games. Baby shower is all about sending gifts for the mom-to-be. However, gifts are usually useful for the coming baby. The word shower means to shower the coming baby with gifts. This shows how warm relatives and friends are welcoming the coming of a baby.

Baby shower is like a simple party where friends and relative are invited to share foods and drinks. Depending on how the party is planned, it can be a simple or grand celebration. Baby showers are meant to be fun so there really is a need for entertainment. Baby shower games are used to break the ice and can really make any party a memorable one.

It is more fun if both children and adults can join the baby shower games. Children are fun to watch playing games so you can prepare the first game for them. “Guess what’s inside game” will be enjoyed by most children. Any baby-related item can be used as long as it fits a paper bag to be used. The items will be sealed separately in a paper bag and will be put inside a sack. Players will guess what is inside the sealed bags. The player who guesses the most correct items wins the game.

To get the participation of the adults, “diaper the baby” game may be included in the party. Couples will have to diaper a baby doll. The couple who finishes putting on the diaper will get the prize. However, the game is not as easy as most would think for there is a rule that only one hand from each couple must be used. This game builds teamwork for the playing couple.

You may also prepare baby shower games where both adults and children can play together. “Measure mom’s tummy” is one good ice breaker for all guests. A roll of sanitary paper is used in this game. Every participant tears off an estimated length of it and sees if it fits the mom’s-to-be tummy. The one who tears off the closest size to the mom’s tummy size wins the game.
