Super Fun Baby Shower Games to Keep the Laughter Going

Of all the resources out there for baby shower game ideas, the list is definitely by no means lacking; however, there is always room to add a few time tested favorites that will make sure your baby shower guests' attention doesn't stray from the festivities. Try out these hilarious games that will keep everyone's interest at bay!

Diaper Pins & Rice -- Use a large bowl and fill with an entire bag of white rice. Use standard safety pins or diaper pins and mix well with the rice. Have a guest sit down in a chair and be blindfolded. Tell the guest they have two minutes to find as many diaper pins as possible strictly by sifting through the rice using hands only. Whoever finds the most diaper pins within the two minutes of all the participants wins the game. This is not as easy as it sounds but is so much fun to watch and giggle.

Grab Bag Surprise -- Take some common baby items and put one item in a brown paper lunch bag and staple shut. Number the bags and keep a separate list hidden so you know what is in each bag by the number. Give each guest a sheet of paper and pencil to write with and pass each bag around to all the guests. Ask them to write down what is in each bag simply by feeling the bag. Squeezing and shaking the bag is allowed, but no trying to peek inside. The guest who gets the most answers right wins. Try to make the baby items unique in shape and size so it's not the easiest to guess. Some great suggestions would be a baby thermometer, medicine dispenser, bulb syringe, mini bottle of powder, little food dipper, nail clippers and unique shaped tube of diaper cream.

Diaper Duty Countdown -- Granted the skills needed for this game doesn't have to apply in real life after the baby comes home; however, it's a great way to turn up the laughter. Get a medium sized baby doll (large enough that a size 1 diaper would fit properly) and a supply of diapers, 1 per guest is sufficient. Ask each guest to try their hand at changing the baby's diaper in record time. A certain level of consistency with the quality of the diaper change needs to be assessed to determine the winner here. Whoever properly changes the diaper in the fastest amount of time wins. The best part is, the diapers can be given to the expectant mom.

I hope you will try out these super fun baby shower games and find them to be a big hit at your baby shower. Just remember that imagination is key to coming up with some great games that will have everyone cracking up. Just don't make the mom-to-be laugh so hard that her water breaks!
