Games for every kind of baby shower
For a mom-only shower, lead with how well do you know the mom-to-be or baby shower would you rather. For a co-ed shower, the baby shower shoe game puts both parents on the spot and gets the most laughs.
Guests who don't know the parents well still have a fair shot at guess the baby weight, the baby shower price guess game and the baby shower trivia ladder.
Keep one game for the baby book
Wishes for baby, baby shower predictions and, at a gender reveal, gender reveal predictions cost nothing, need no winner and give the parents something to read later. Start them as guests arrive and collect them before gifts.
During the gift opening
Baby shower bingo turns a long gift opening into a game. Every guest gets a different card, and the first to get five in a row wins. On phones, the cards mark themselves as the host calls each gift.
Questions people ask
- How many games should you play at a baby shower?
- Two or three, plus one that runs in the background like bingo or wishes for baby. Parents-to-be tire quickly, so keep the whole shower around two hours.
- What are good baby shower games for a co-ed shower?
- The baby shower shoe game, the price guess game and trivia. All three work without anyone having to do anything embarrassing.
- Can guests who aren't there play?
- Yes, with the live version. Share the big screen on a video call and remote guests join from their own phones with the room code.
