The Fun Of Baby Shower Games

If you are planning a shower, then you know how important some good baby shower games are. The games at the shower are half of the fun. Often the games are one of the things that make the baby shower memorable for everyone. The prizes that can be given to the winner of the games do not need to be costly to be meaningful and enjoyable. Some popular ideas include scented candles, designer teas and coffees, stationary, and hand lotions or massage oils. Not only do some people like to give the winners of the games awards, they like to find a way to make the loser stand out too. There are many harmless and fun ways to this including having the loser eat a whole jar of baby food, suck on a pacifier, drink from a baby bottle or wear a bib. There are all sorts of games with a baby theme that the host can plan to play. For one of the games each guest will be asked to cut a piece of yarn that they think will fit around the expecting mother’s belly. Whoever guesses the closest will win a prize. Another favorite is a guessing game. The host will fill a jar with items, such as safety pins, and then each guest will have to guess how many pins are in the jar. The guest closest to the right answer will win herself a prize. The new mother will, of course, get to keep the jar filled with the items to be used for her baby. Another popular game is also a guessing game of sorts. Each guest will have a pen or pencil and paper to write on. They will have 5 minutes to write down as many baby related products as they can think of. Initially it will sound like an easy time. After a few minutes, everyone will be squirming trying to figure out what else to write. At the end of the time, the person that has the longest list will be deemed the winner of the game. There are many ways to make a baby shower a lot of fun, but none quite as much as baby shower games. It is a sure fire way to encourage a setting filled with fun and a lot of laughter while making the new mom feel like a shining star!
