Free Babyshower Games to Keep Your Guests Entertained
Babyshower Games?? This is the question which comes to every hostess’ mind when she has to plan a baby shower and also brainstorm her mind to come up with an innovative activities idea.
There is also so much to be done in so little time. You have to organize and prepare invitations, food, drinks, party favors, schedules, and activities. You don’t want your party to be exactly like every other shower your guests have attended.
The challenge is to come up with new Babyshower Games that aren’t too complicated. You don’t want to spend half an hour explaining to everyone the rules of a five-minute activity. You also want your activities to be entertaining for your guests. When the guests start to lose interest, the activity is basically over, whether it’s supposed to be or not.
Let the activites begin!
The best Babyshower Games are activities that make your guests interact with each other. People who attend showers all know the guest of honor, of course, but they don’t all necessarily know each other. There is a bit of awkwardness when the party first begins. It’s a good idea to come up with
games to break the ice and let the guests get acquainted.
One of the great activities to play right off the bat is the Introduction Game. The hostess starts by introducing herself, then giving one descriptive detail about herself. This detail can be anything. It could be her favorite color, dog’s name, her middle name or even the last movie she saw or the book she’d read.
The next person in line has to add their name, a detail and repeat the name of the hostess and her detail. It goes on down the line, with the last person adding their name and detail. Then repeating the names and details of all the other guests. By the time the activity is over, everyone will have had a few good laughs. And will have had a chance to talk to each other more.
Don’t discount classic free babyshower games. The Baby Food Game is always fun for everyone. Simply buy 5 different kinds of baby food. Remove the labels. Mark each one with a number instead (be sure to write down which number is which food). Prepare a paper plate for each guest. Write the numbers 1-5 on each plate. Have each guest put a little of the baby food from the jar with the corresponding number.
At this point, the tasting begins. Each player writes down their best guess as to what five baby foods they are eating. The player with the most correct guesses wins. Be sure not to buy meat flavors just in case any of your guests are vegetarians.
