To turn a boring shower into something more fun, you need to plan more than cake, decorations and gifts. Some baby shower consultants suggest guests make crafts during the event that the mother will keep for the baby forever. There are a number of excellent places online to look for ideas for baby shower games, but the best starting place may be your closet: Fill a small bowl with dry rice. Add about twenty-five small, safety pins and mix. Blindfold a guest and have her try to pick out as many pins as she can. Continue with each guest, keeping track of how many pins each guest has found. Whoever finds the most pins wins. Hand out clothes pins to each person as they enter the party. The object of this game is to not to cross your legs to honor the mom-to-be who cant cross her legs. When some one is spotted crossing their legs, guests should take that persons clothes pin. Or play a version of this game by picking a word that no one at the shower can say like cute or baby. Every time someone is caught uttering those words, they get their clothes pin taken away. At the end of the shower, whoever has the most clothes pins wins. Another great baby shower game idea is Baby Charades: Like traditional charades, the person who acts out the word is not allowed to say anything verbally, spell anything out with their fingers, or point toward any object in the room. The first team to guess the correct word gets the point Some baby related things to act out: Middle of the Night feeding Changing a diaper Fussy Baby Burping Baby Highchair Feeding tasting baby food and realizing how bad it really is You can also purchase 12-15 baby food jars without labels, number them, and send them around the room for guests to taste and guess what it is. The object is to see how many they can guess correctly. The winner with the most correct flavors wins. Another variation on this game would be to mash or melt a variety of candy bars. They can be served in diapers. The goal is for guests to guess the candy bar. Prizes are usually awarded to the winners and they can be something as simple as a basket of goodies or sweet smelling soaps; its the thought that counts. If you have ideas for prizes but arent sure how to make them, there are commercial sites like beau-coup.com that can not only provide tips for baby shower games, but wonderful gifts and favors as well.
