If you’re going to be the guest of honor at a baby shower, or hosting one for a friend or relative, you’ll love these easy to play free baby shower games we’ve thought of!
Baby Alphabet Game
Have each guest of a sheet of paper write down on a paper as many items as they think of that are baby related for each letter of the alphabet. Whoever gets the most baby terms wins!
Baby Word Scramble
With this easy free baby shower game, all you need to do is choose a few baby related words such as diapers, pacifier, bottle, crib bedding, baby wipes, burp cloth, formula, etc. and then scramble them up. You can award a prize to whoever gets them all right first. (or if no one gets them all, have a few for whoever gets the most)
Nursery Rhyme Game
Have guests write down the words to a few popular nursery rhymes. (Examples are Mary had a Little Lamb, Itsy Bitsy Spider, Where is Thumpkin, etc.) Whoever gets the most ones right wins.
Memory Game
Put 15-20 baby related items on a tray or table. Let each guest spend some time trying to memorize what is on it. Then, have them write each item down. The person to remember the most wins!
Pass the Parcel
In this free baby shower game you wrap a prize in several layers of wrapping paper. You will then have the guests sit in a circle and pass the parcel around while music is playing. When the music stops, the person holding the parcel has to start to unwrap it and they have to top as soon as the music starts again. (You will need somebody to man the music player to control the music turning on and off!) Whoever actually gets to the bottom of the present gets to keep it. You may want to have a few extras for several rounds just in case this game goes too fast.
Get Crafty
Your baby shower guests might enjoy doing some sort of craft together for the baby. You could have them each make a scrapbook page or decorate a baby onesie with fabric paint, etc. etc. You could also have each guest create a story book for the mom to read to the child.
Mad Libs
Create a story about the mom to be or the baby and then leave out some words to have the guests fill in – things like nouns, verbs, colors, place, person, etc. This can be really funny with the right crowd!
