Fun Baby Shower Games Your Guests Will Actually Want to Play

Baby shower games are notorious for making guests groan when they're announced. That's why we decided to go out and gather up a list of games that guests will actually have fun participating in.

My Water Broke!

That's what your guests will be screaming as they melt their ice cubes to get the little baby figures inside.

Name That Poopy!

Alright, this one is a little gross, but it's also pretty fun once you get past the poo idea. Melt candy bars inside diapers, and have guests guess which kind is in each diaper.

This game of POOP is the perfect game for your guests! Which diaper can you guess right?" image="-1″ image_url="https://momspotted.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/poop2.jpg"]

Make a Baby Baby Shower Game

Playdough babies is another fun game. Provide little canisters of playdough and cupcake liners for your guests to mold their own babies. Have prizes for the cutest, ugliest, weirdest, etc.

Guesstimate Mom's Belly Size

Alright, so you'll need to feel out the guest of honor to see if she's comfortable with the "Guess how big Mommy's waist/belly is" game. Some women like it, and some don't, but it can be lots of fun.

Baby Food Taste Test

Feed the baby is fun for coed showers. Provide samples of several different types of baby foods, but hide the labels.

The guests try each one to see who can guess the most correctly. And it's just no fun if you don't put some real stinkers in there like spinach (which, oddly, was my baby's favorite) or beef.

Diaper Toss Game

And here's another fun coed idea: a diaper toss! If you're looking for an easy baby shower game, this is it.

It's a skill every parent needs to learn anyway, because who has time to walk all the way to the trash can when you're bleary-eyed and exhausted?

Perfect Bobbing for Apples Variation

Instead of bobbing for apples, try bobbing for bottle nipples instead. Even kids can join in this game!

Diaper Fashion Challenge

Have a crowd of fashionistas? Try the diaper fashion challenge! Have guests attach as many diapers as they can to their clothes. Choose winners based on the number of diapers or creativity for the "outfit".

Don't Cross Your Legs!

In this game, everyone gets a clothespin at the beginning of the baby shower, and if other guests notice someone's legs crossed, the pin is taken from that person. Some people are really competitive and observant with this one!

[wprm-recipe-roundup-item link="https://www.catchmyparty.com/photos/1898293″ name="Pretty In Pink Baby Shower Party Ideas " summary="Here's a game that will provide loads of laughs for the entire guest list!" image="-1″ image_url="https://photos-cdn.catchmyparty.com/PL/photos/0189/8293/002.jpg"]

Don't Say Baby!

This game is the same as the crossed legs game above, except instead of looking for crossed legs, you listen carefully and take pins from people who say the word "baby."

[wprm-recipe-roundup-item link="https://tulamama.com/dont-say-baby-game/" name="How To Rock Your 'Don't Say Baby' Game" summary="The 'Don't Say Baby' Game is very popular and one of the easiest baby shower games to set up. There's very little preparation involved; It's a fun baby shower game! " image="-1″ image_url="https://tulamama.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Social-Games-Images30.png"]

Tinkle in the Pot Game

To play Tinkle in the Pot, guests place large balloons under their shirts and ping pong balls between their knees to waddle over to the jars and drop them in.

It's a hilarious game, and if you've ever been pregnant yourself, you know just how real that waddling is in the last trimester.

Baby Jeopardy Printable Baby Shower Game

My favorite baby shower game has to be Baby Jeopardy. Behind each post-it note is an answer, and your guests have to come up with the correct question.

You may need to divide guests into teams to make sure everyone is included.

[wprm-recipe-roundup-item link="https://tulamama.com/baby-jeopardy/" name="The Easiest & Cutest Baby Jeopardy With Answer Key" summary="Baby Jeopardy is always a hit at Baby showers because it's fun and competitive. Tulamama's baby shower jeopardy follows the same rules as the Jeopardy you see on tv – but with a 'baby' twist." image="-1″ image_url="https://tulamama.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Baby-Jeopardy.png"]

Draw the baby

Of course, you have to make it more challenging than that! Provide each guest with an index card and a marker. The cards are placed on the forehead while everyone tries to draw a baby.

Have everyone sign their cards so you can look back at them years down the road!

Blindfolded Diaper Change

The blindfolded diaper change game separates the old pros from the newbies! It's a lot of fun, and it never hurts for the Mom and Dad to join in to fit in a little practice before the baby comes.

Babies Against Parenthood

Ever played Cards Against Humanity? It's hilarious. And this Babies Against Parenthood version is just as fun. It's a free download, so make sure you get it!

[wprm-recipe-roundup-item link="https://theecofriendlyfamily.com/babies-parenthood-game-free-printable/" name="Babies Against Parenthood Game" summary="Like Cards Against Humanity, but more PG13? This game is fun for baby showers or a late-night with parent friends." image="-1″ image_url="https://theecofriendlyfamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Babies-Against-Parenthood.jpg"]

I hope you loved these awesome and creative ideas for baby shower games!

Think of a baby shower like a birthday party. You want the guests to enjoy themselves but most of all, you want the guest of honor to know that she has a cheering section behind her supporting her as she begins this crazy parenting journey.
