What Are The Best Baby Shower Games
Some people might roll their eyes at what they perceive as rather silly baby shower games. But keep in mind that a spell of silliness may actually be welcomed by the new mother, since the first few months of her baby’s life will keep her very tired, with few available moments for just kicking back and being light-hearted. So even if the guests at the shower aren’t crazy about such games, they are still an integral part of baby showers.
One “silliness” category of shower games is the kind involving blindfolds. One game plays on the old childhood favorite, Pin the Tail on the Donkey, instead doing something like Pin the Baby on the Mommy. Of course, there’s the more adult version, Pin the Sperm on the Egg, which might add an entertaining twist. Other blindfolded games involve partners feeding applesauce to each other or having to spoon cotton balls into a bowl. When baby shower planning, try to find out if the guests will play such games good-naturedly.
For those guests whose dignity just won’t endure being fed applesauce while blindfolded, other games may come to the rescue. Some people prefer a more thinking or trivia-related style of game instead. You might give everyone a list of items and see how many of those items each person has in her purse. You could add some odd ones, too, so it would be remarkable when someone actually had some of them. You could play memory games, or have everyone add as many song titles as they can remember with the word “baby” in them to a list. You can create a lot of unique baby shower games in which people can use their minds if they’d rather not lose their dignity or get messy.
There is enough variety in shower games that you shouldn’t need to impose certain types of games on people who are sure to dislike them. If you can get an advance idea of what the guests will be like when you’re planning baby shower activities, you should be able to find games tailored to the tastes of almost anybody in attendance. Whether they prefer to let their hair down or remain at least a little dignified, you should be able to show them a good time.
