| Baby Photos | Unoriginal
but still one of the best ice-breaking Baby Shower Games! Ask all guests to bring
a baby picture of themselves or better still, post one in advance. Take each baby
picture and arrange them onto a board. Assign each picture a number. Each guest
gets a piece of paper and has to match the adult guest name with the corresponding
baby picture. The guest with the most correct matches wins. Use the pictures as
name tags after the game. | $ |

| Drop Potato Game | Buy
1 Potato and 1 Jar making sure the Potato can fit in the jar. Place the jar in
the middle of the room. Each guest places the potato in between their knees and
tries walking to the middle and dropping the potato in the jar. Who ever does
it stays in. Start with a big jar (or bucket!) and get gradually smaller until
you have a winner. Use a small balloon for an easier version. Alcohol helps enjoyment
of this game! |

Bottle Suckers | This
game is especially good when its just for the guys at a mixed Baby Shower Party!
Fill one 4 oz.baby bottle per person with water or juice. Time the suckers to
see who can finish the bottle the fastest. Its great watching grown men (or women)
suck from a baby bottle! For more fun, 'set up' one contestant (father-to-be?)
by using a teat with a very small hole or even seal one bottle completely. | $$ |

| Pillow Talk |
Just
for fun, not a game. Write down everything the mother-to-be says when she opens
her gifts. After all the gifts are opened, explain that her comments were 'what
she said on the night the baby was conceived'! Read her comments out loud for
some hysterical innuendos. Some Grannies may not appreciate this! | $ |

| Baby Food Tasters |
Buy 10 jars of baby food. Provide a list of the 10 flavors. Cover the jars with
foil and write a number on the side of each jar. Give everyone a plastic spoon,
paper plate, and paper and pencil. Pass around each jar of baby food and have
players drop a spoonful and write the number next to it. Get them to taste the
samples and try to identify each flavor on the list. Remove the foil to reveal
the answers. Try sweet potato as a 'hard to guess' option. Get the camera out
to record some great faces! | $$ |

| Baby Birthday Card | Give
blank cards and envelopes numbered 1 to the number of guests (say 16) to each
guest. Ask them to write a birthday card to the baby for that year of his/her
life with appropriate comments and advice for that time of their life. It's a
great gift for the baby, especially as a means of remembering older relatives
who are present at the Baby Shower Party. |
