Get the party going with our fun baby shower game ideas!

We've got some fun baby shower games that are sure to get your guests interacting and having fun.

Guess Mommy's tummy size: Have each person cut a piece of yarn the length they think would wrap around the mommy's tummy. Then measure mom's belly with string and see who came the closest.

Materials: yarn, scissors

Guess the baby food: Take the labels off of 5-7 jars of baby food in a variety of colors and flavors. Make sure to number each jar. Have everyone taste each one and write down what they think it is. The guest with most right, wins. To make it even more challenging, or in case of a tie, use a blindfold so they can't use the color of the food to help them. This is a classic baby shower game, but it can take some time with a large group.

Materials: 5-7 jars of baby food, spoons, paper and pencil, blindfold (optional)

Dirty diaper game- Get 5-7 different kinds of chocolate candy (Reese's, butterfingers, Snickers, etc.). Melt each one and put inside of a diaper. Have everyone guess which kind of candy bar is inside. They can smell it, touch it, and taste it if they need to. This is definitely a fun baby shower game. It is hilarious to see people smelling and tasting the "poop"!

Materials: 5-7 types of chocolate candy, 5-7 diapers, paper and pencils

My water broke- Fill some ice cube trays with water and put a tiny plastic baby inside each one and freeze.  After everyone arrives, give each guest an ice cube in a cup. Whoever's ice melts first and gets to the baby says: "my water broke" and wins a prize.

Guess the baby pictures: Ask everyone to bring a baby picture with them. Hang all the pictures up and number them. Have each person try to guess who the baby pictures belong too. This baby shower game works best for showers where everyone knows each other.

* If you are having a baby shower where many guests don't know each other, you could find pictures of celebrities and their babies in magazines and use those instead. Have everyone guess which baby belongs to which celebrity.

Materials: baby pictures, thumb tacks to pin them up, paper and pencils

Purse Scavenger Hunt:

Make a list of items that might be found in a woman's purse.

This fun baby shower game is easy and takes little preparation.

Materials: list of items

Diaper Bag Game: Fill a diaper bag with items that the new mom will need. Have the guests guess what items are in the bag. Make sure to include a few items that are hard to guess! The person who gets the most right, wins. The mom-to-be gets to keep the diaper bag and all the items inside.

Another variation of this fun baby shower game is to blindfold the mom-to-be and have her take each item out of the bag. She has to try to guess what each item is by feeling it.

Materials: diaper bag, baby items to fill it with (diapers, wipes, burp cloths, socks, pacifiers, etc.), paper and pencils

Dress the Baby: Separate the baby shower guests into groups of 4-5 people. Give each group a roll of toilet paper and have them pick one person to be the "baby". Then each group makes an outfit for the "baby" using the toilet paper. Let mom-to-be pick her favorite for the winner. This is a fun baby shower game that will have everyone laughing!

The Price is Right Game: buy a dozen baby items of various prices (like a package of wipes, a pacifier, a jar of baby food, diaper ointment, etc.) Keep a list of the prices for each item. Write all the items down on a piece of paper with a blank line next to it. Give each player a list and a pen. Show them each baby item on the list and have them write down how much they think it costs. Then, have them total it all up and see who came the closest to the actual total. Give mom the baby items to keep.

Baby Gift Bags: Take four gift bags or paper bags and label each one with the letters B-A-B-Y. Fill each bag with baby items that begin with that letter. Have the guests guess what items are in each bag. The person with the most right, wins. All the baby items go to mom-to-be.

Nursery Rhyme Game: open a nurserty rhyme book and select phrases from the rhymes. Give each guest a sheet of paper and a pen. Read part of the rhyme aloud (not giving too much away) and have everyone write down the title of the nursery rhyme. The person who gets the most right is the winner.

Another variation of this game is to read aloud a portion of a rhyme and have everyone fill in the missing word. For example: Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle. The cow jumped over the ____. I used an easy one for an example, but try to make them as hard as you can.

Baby Bingo- since this is a popular baby shower game, you can find baby bingo cards that are premade. If you want to make your own, just draw a five-by-five grid on a piece of paper and make enough copies for each guest to have one. Then you will need to make a master list of baby words like: bottle, diaper, pacifier, booties, wipes, etc. 

Write a word in each square (making sure that each bingo card is different). Put each word from the master list on a slip of paper and put in a bowl. Draw a word out of the bowl and say it out loud. Have everyone mark the word off with a pen or use bingo markers. Keep playing until someone gets "bingo".

Pacifier Toss: Have everyone stand in a circle. Have a guest toss a pacifier to someone else in the circle. The person who catches the pacifier must name a baby item and then toss it to someone else. Each person only has 5 seconds to name a baby item and cannot repeat what someone else has said. If they do repeat an item or can't name something fast enough, they are out of the game. Keep playing until the last person is left standing.

Materials: pacifier
