Game festivities are guaranteed to liven up and thrill the guests invited along to your baby shower party. Baby’s day should be fun filled action packed and full of laughter and a sure way for this to happen is when Baby Shower Games are in play.
You don't have to be at a loose end when it comes to providing entertainment for the guest invites attending the baby shower party. One of the best options for additional fun is to play games.
Have your friends and family join in The Name Game
The start of this game is where you ask the players to write down two names for the baby, and then ask them to find as many words as they can from their chosen names. The winner will be the player with the most names. Be sure to mention before play that words with less than three letters are not valid.
To make the name game even more exciting ask the guests to keep the names they chose a secret from the other entrants. The reason for this is because they will be given the opportunity to guess from the words made up what names were chosen at the beginning of the name game.
Feeding Time is another particular favourite; this is game where cotton balls are placed into a basin with another empty basin at the side. Blind fold the players for this game who will then be prompted to transfer the cotton balls from one basin to the other with the aid of a spoon. Put a time limit on this game because this game is not as easy as it looks. The winner is the one with the most cotton balls moved.
Another unusual named game is the Rice Bowl but very popular at baby shower occasions. Take a bowl and fill it half-way with plain uncooked rice. Into the rice throw in safety pins (be careful with safety pins). Blind folded once again the guests task is to take turns in retrieving the pins.
Guess the Guest is a real fun game where guests are asked to bring a picture along of when they were a baby, On entrance to the baby shower celebration these photos will be handed to whoever is in charge of the entertainment scene. Participants in this game join in the fun by identifying the picture and putting the right face to the right person.
Baby Shower Games highlight the whole of the occasion adding fun and laughter. Most games entail being blind folded. A word of warning - too many of these baby shower games then you don't get to see as much of the baby shower as you would like!

7 Themes for holding a Baby Shower
It is always an immense joy to have someone added to your family, especially if it is a cute little baby. And how else would you celebrate the joy of having one? Plan the most fun and unique baby shower you’ll ever have. Preparing for a baby shower should be fun and exciting. You can be as creative as you want. Go simple or go real extravagant. As long as you will make your party special and unforgettable, you can go ahead and experiment on the different themes you can have.
You can go traditional or get a little creative and make your baby shower a lot more unique. You can spice up the party with different themes that can either be serious, adorable or humorous.
Below are some popular themes ideas that would definitely be a hit in any baby showers.
Fairytale Themes
There are thousands of fairytale characters that have been a tradition throughout baby shower parties. Cinderella and Snow White are the most common ones for girl. Peter Pan is the most suitable character for boys. This kind of theme can be made interesting with colourful decorations and creates a fantasy- like atmosphere.
Baby bottles theme
You can have a baby bottle as your centrepiece in this particular theme. Use them as cute containers for game prizes. You can make fun of them too by using baby bottles as cups or mugs.
Teddy bear theme
Everyone loves these cuddly teddies. They are perfect for decorations. You don’t have to buy teddy bears though to fill up the room. Old but presentable ones will do. It would be memorable to have the guest of honour’s favourite teddy as a centrepiece.
Nappy theme
Begin with sending cute nappy cut- out invitation. Guests should bring their own nappy gifts with a particular size. This way, you can save on nappies even up to three months!
Nursery rhyme theme
It’s a good idea to make nursery rhymes as theme for your party. You can make use of famous character like Humpty Dumpty, Little Bo Peep, or the famous Mother Goose. Pictures could be nice as decorations but it would really look nice if you have some kind of a replica. You can also add on some of the line to your invitations.
Themes for twins
Remember the famous Noah’s ark story? All animals are paired in two’s when lodging the ark. It’s the perfect theme for expectant mothers of twins. Don’t forget to note in your invitation that you will be having twins, this way; guests will have to bring two gifts of either the same kind or two different ones.
Colour themes
The usual colour themes for girls are pink and blue for the boys. These are simple themes that can be just as fun as other themes. Decorate your venue with your chosen colour theme. In putting up collared ribbons, intertwine them with a white ribbon too. This would give the room an elegant look. If you are unsure whether your baby would be a boy or a girl, settle for neutral colours like green or yellow.
Having a theme in your baby shower can add a little more coordination in the things you need to prepare. A theme would dictate which kind of food you need to prepare, the look of the invitations and how you would decorate your chosen venue. With a theme, you would have to be groping in the dark on how you would create that wonderful baby shower.
