Basic Games to Play

Baby showers are known for their funny games and goofy fun.  One game that is especially fun is “Don’t Say That Word” such as “baby” or “girl” or “boy”.  Another favorite is a baby food game where the guests either smell or taste various flavors of jarred food and try to guess what food it is. One game that’s really fun as well is to pass a diaper around, just like musical chairs, and inside of the diaper is a scoop of warm chocolate frosting. This one is sure to get belly laughs from the party guests!  Don’t forget gifts for the winning players; choose girly gifts like lotions that smell pretty, fresh baskets of plants or flowers, cards loaded with gift money, or a gift bag full of something themed such as “all-things-manicure-related”.

Baby Shower Decorations

Decorations are neat, because they set the happy mood for the entire celebration.  If you don’t know the gender of the baby, choose neutrals that would suit either sex.  It creates a fresh color palette and brightens everyone’s mood!  The cake can even add to the decor; add small plastic baby bottle favors and rattles, etc. that can be purchased from a low-cost party store.  They add novelty to the dessert as well as to the topic of the party.
