Here’s an easy, but fun game for a baby shower. I especially like it because the supplies are inexpensive: pins and a prize.

Pick up a set of clothes pins, we found a cute set of mini plastic pink and blue pins. Get enough for one per guest.

Give a pin to guests as they arrive. Have them pin it to their sleeve. Instruct them to ‘steal’ a pin from someone when they say the word BABY.

 At a pre-determined time during the shower, award a prize to the guest who has the most pins collected.

Also works well for baby showers where  men are present too.

Here’s a fun activity for a baby shower. Prep is easy and will give mom to be a few nice things for baby at the end of the party.

Suggested supplies to purchase, 20-25 items: (go to the dollar store!)

• bib
• bottle
• pacifier
• onesie
• socks
• bottle brush
• gift card
• diaper rash cream
• baby spoon
• sippy cup
• clothespin
• assorted toys
• baby tylenol
• ipecac
• medicine spoon
• pacifier clip
• rubber ducky
• Several other small assorted new baby needs

Other supplies:

• large tray or container
• paper
• pencils
• timer
• prize(s) for winner(s)

How to play:  Arrange all goodies onto tray. Hide tray in an unused room. When it’s party time, bring out the tray and pass around for guests to get a good look. Once everyone’s had a chance to see the tray, remove it from the room. Give guests the paper and pencils and have them list from memory the items on the tray. Bonus points question to ask: What character or design was on a specific item? (Figure this out ahead of time.) You can set a timer, and the guest with the most correct items when the buzzer goes off wins. At the end of the shower, new mom gets to take home all the goodies.
