Top 5 Baby Shower Team Games
Often at a baby shower the guests will not all know each other, especially if friends, family & colleagues have all been invited. Many party hosts worry that the guests will be too shy or self-conscious in such a scenario that they will hesitate to get involved in the baby shower games. However, there’s no need to ditch the games, instead go for team games that will bond your guests together and have everybody in stitches! Here are our top 5 baby shower team game ideas.
1. Baby Shower Charades
A fantastic twist on an old favourite. Get your guests acting out baby-related activities and you might be surprised by some of the guesses! You can buy these games already made to co-ordinate with many baby shower themed partyware.
2. Baby Taboo
Play in two teams with each guest taking a turn to describe the baby related word/s on the card to their teammates without saying any of the ‘taboo’ words. Easier than it sounds but actually very difficult to do under pressure!
3. Teddy Racing
Great for playing outside in the garden or park, you’ll need two dolly sized toy buggies and a couple of teddies. Set up a little obstacle course with baby related objects such as baby t-shirts, disposable nappies and baby bibs. A person from each team race each other down the course, pushing the teddy in the buggy and dressing him along the way. Once the first person has fully dressed the teddy and returned to the beginning the next person has to take each item off along the course. The winning team is the one whose members have all had a turn and got back to the start first. This one is especially good for baby showers where men are also invited and can get very competitive!
Like the TV programme family fortunes, the questions are set in advance and people are surveyed to collate the answers. You don’t have to do a real survey but write down baby related questions such as ‘name one item you would find in a hospital bag’ or ‘name one item you will need to change a baby’. Write down five answers to each question in the order that you think of them. To play put the guests into two teams, and a guest from each team goes head to head to guess the most popular answer. The guests ‘buzz’ in to answer and the first person to buzz gets to answer first. If they get the top answer they score a point. If they don’t get the top answer then the other guest has a guess to try and get the most popular answer. Each guest will take a turn and the winning team is the one with the most points at the end.
5. Baby Trivia
Make up some questions all about pregnancy, birth and babies and research the answers. Make sure you get the accurate answers! You can play by asking each team alternately a question and giving them a point if they are right, and giving the other team the chance to answer if they are wrong. Or read out the questions to all teams at the same time like a pub quiz and have them write down the answers to score all together at the end. Cue lots of frantic whispering and covering up answers to stop cheaters!
