There are various activities that you can undertake in order to make baby showers fun-filled. Over the years, many activities have emerged that people undertake in baby showers. There are many activities out of which some are known as activities only for mothers or ladies and some can be undertaken by anybody irrespective of their genders. Not to forget, there are certain activities that target the males as well.
Here are some baby shower activity ideas that can make the event thrilling and a memorable one:
Some popular games:
'Guess the size of the expected mother's tummy' is probably the most popular game ever of baby shower occasions. The game is simple and fun! Participants are provided with yarns and they have to cut it off the size of the lady's stomach who is expecting a baby. At the end, which ever participant has measured the closest is the winner and is offered a prize. Another amusing game is guessing the food inside the jar. In this game, there are several jars of baby food kept on a table with no labels and hints and the participants are asked to guess the food which is inside the jar. Whoever, guesses it right is the winner.
There is another popular game which is usually played on this occasion and it is the game nearly everyone enjoys. In this game, participants are given a paper and pen and they are asked to make a list of as many baby items they can think in a certain time frame. Whoever, writes the most is the winner! This game might sound a bit boring but in actual playing it is pretty much fun.
Again, another popular game is 'Finish the nursery rhyme' one! Most of us have already heard of it but those who haven't read on to know how it is played. The game is pretty simple! There is host who will read a nursery rhyme and would exclude a word from it. The participants have to guess which word is missing. The first one to guess out the word is the winner and gets a prize.
Another good game idea is to create a list of jumbled words relating to baby items and ask the participants to solve them. Of course, the person who solves them first would be the winner but the catch should be of the time. There should be a given time limit within which the participants should solve the words.
You can also have an arts and crafts activity game such as provide all the participants with materials and ask them to make a handmade wall hanging. They would use these materials and create the wall and the lady who is expected would choose which one is the winner.
Games especially for males:
If you want to keep the males entertained as well and you want them to participate then here is an idea that can cater the males in your party too. Get some baby bottles with nipples and fill them up with drinks; whichever drinks you want. Now, the game is simple…you need to ask the participants to suck the drink and whoever does it first is the winner.
