Famous Mothers 

For this baby shower game, challenge guests to think of as many famous pairs of "mother & child" as possible. The prize goes to the guest with the longest legitimate list (fictional pairings are perfectly appropriate!). As an alternative, offer guests a list of famous individuals, and have them come up with the name of the famous parent. (For example - Judy Garland/Liza Minelli, Joely Fisher/Connie Stevens, Patti Davis/Nancy Reagan.) 

Memory Game 

Fill a tray with lots of baby necessities such as a pacifier, bib, bottle, nipples, teething ring, thermometer, bottle brush, baby monitor, nail clippers, rubber duck, etc. Try to fill it with 25-30 items. Cover the platter with a baby blanket. Pass out paper and pencils, and then lift the blanket and show your guests the items on the tray for 15-20 seconds. Cover the tray again. Whoever can remember and record the most items wins the game. The items on the tray can be given to the mom-to-be. 

Memory Game with a Twist

This is a classic baby shower game with a twist.  Purchase several baby items (diaper, bottle, pacifier, comb etc) before shower and arrange them all on a tray. Have the mom-to-be pass the tray around then find a reason to excuse herself. Once she is gone the hostess tells the guests to write down as many things as the Mom-to-be was wearing (color outfit, hair accessories, earrings etc). This will shock your guests because they are expecting to write down the items. They were probably not looking at the mom so it will be tough, but a fun baby shower game. 

Motherly Advice

Upon arriving, each guest is given an index card and is to write a question a new mother would ask (example: How can I stop my baby from crying?)  Then during the shower, these same cards are passed back out to the guests only face down so questions can not be seen by anyone. 
Guests are to write the answer to the question on the back that they placed on their card from the beginning.  Then someone can read question from the front and then answer on the back (This is a hilarious baby shower game!) 

Name That Tune 

For this baby shower game, divide guests into teams, and have each team try to think of as many songs as they possibly can with the word "BABY" in the song. After a specified amount of time, each team will have a list. At that time, you can share with them how the scoring is determined. They can choose to read their list, and receive one point per song, or they can sing a few bars of each song, and receive five points per song. Let them know that there will be no deductions for singing off key! The team with the most points wins. If your group needs a little help to start with, here are a few songs to inspire them: 

I got you Babe ? Sonny and Cher 
Baby Face ? Art Mooney 
Yes Sir, That's My Baby ? Frank Sinatra 
Maybe Baby ? Buddy Holly 
Love Shack ? B-52s 
You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby ? Bing Crosby 
Baby Baby ? Amy Grant 
Baby Love ? Diana Ross 
Babe, I Love You ? Styx 
Baby of Mine ? Bette Midler 
For a slight variation on this baby shower game, ask teams to come up with titles of Nursery Rhymes, famous Parent/Child pairs, or animals and their babies (for example - swan/cygnet; pig/piglet; frog/tadpole). 

Next Mom-to-Be 

This is a fun and simple baby shower game. Tradition says whoever brought the seventh gift opened at a baby shower will be the next to get pregnant. I made a badge with a picture of a pregnant woman and the caption "I'm Next!" for her to wear. 

Nursery Rhyme

This is another easy baby shower game.  Pick certain lines from nursery rhymes and have the guests figure out which rhyme the line came from. Example What! Lost your mittens. Answer Three Little Kittens 

Pudding Game (Great for Couples Showers)

This game is the best baby shower game ever! Before the baby shower, buy those already made pudding cups for each person playing the game or whom you think would play this game. 

Before you start the baby shower game, pair up couples across of each other, blind fold them, and put a trash bag over them so their clothes won't get dirty. 

Start the timer for 30 seconds or how ever long you prefer, and as soon as you say "GO", each couple will have to feed each other as fast as they can. The couple who finishes their pudding first wins!! 

Switch or Keep

Deal out a deck of cards to the guests. Each guest receives three cards. You might have to deal two decks. Keep two decks of cards for yourself. Yell out the cards. Those with corresponding cards then hand them to the hostess and grab a gift. There should at least be five gifts (non expensive, be creative). This gift can be kept by the recipient or taken by another person playing. The next card is called and the game continues with the gifts being passes around until the last card is called. The gifts are then opened by those who still have one. ENJOY!!! 

The Bag Game

For this baby shower game, you'll need large paper bags (you can get them free at the grocery store!) Give all your guest a bag and have them to place the bag over their head. Then ask the participants to take off something they really don't need. It may sound boring but it is so funny when you see women taking off rings, shoes and even clothing not thinking it's the bag on their head that they really don't need. And of course whomever takes off the bag first is the winner! And the participants who still have the bag on, you continue to ask them to take off something they really don't need, if the participants still don't get the hint just tell them without laughing too loud to take that silly bag off their head(s). 

Touch and Tell 

Label 10 pastel colored (adult-sized) socks with numbers 1-10 by using small pieces of paper attached with safety pins. Fill each sock with a different small "baby item" such as a pacifier, mucous suction syringe, formula scoop, thermometer, nail clippers, baby brush, rattle, teething ring, bootie, etc. Give a piece of paper labeled with numbers 1-10 and a pencil to each guest, and pass the socks around the room. Guests can only feel the outside of each sock to try to guess what is inside. The person with the most correct answers wins the game---but it's not as easy as it sounds! This baby shower game is great fun! 

Venus and Mars (Great for Couples Showers)

Divide the players into two teams, men vs. women.  Send each team into a separate room or on opposite ends of a big space.  Give each team index cards and a pen and have them come up with gender-based questions designed to stump the other team. The women might ask: What's a bobbin? What is Martha Stewart's area of expertise? How much does a newborn weigh? The men might ask: What's the role of the carburetor? Who played in the first Super Bowl? What does RAM stand for?

After the cards are finished, place them in two piles in the center of the room. Each team member will stand and take a card from the opposite team's pile and try to answer the questions. Teams get one point for each correct answer. The team with the most points at the end of this baby shower game wins.

When I Was Born

Ask guests to recount the story of when and where they were born, and to offer any special details of unusual events surrounding their birth. Based on the warm and inspiring conversation, provide prizes for a few of the following: "longest labor", "highest birth weight" (there's a 10 pounder in every group!), "most interesting birth environment", "traveled furthest from birthplace to be at this shower", etc. 

Who Am I?

Write the names of famous people the same number of stickers as there are players of the game. Place a sticker on the back of each player.  Players mingle and ask each other questions to try and figure out the name on their own backs. Players may only answer yes or no to questions. First person to correctly guess the name on his or her own back wins.

You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby

Prior to the baby shower, contact your guests and ask them to send you one of their own baby pictures (or have them bring the photos to the shower). Number the pictures with post-it notes or attach the photos to a piece of poster board with numbers assigned to each picture. Hide the photos until all the guests have arrived, or the early arrivals will have an unfair advantage. Distribute paper and pencils to your guests, then display the photos. Have guests try to identify who each baby has grown up to be! The guest who identifies the most baby faces wins the game.
