Baby showers are one of the most memorable times you will share with your family. Just like planning any event, the more time and effort put in the better the party will be. Before starting a baby shower, you will want to make sure you have ice-breakers planned ahead of time. Games are usually the cheapest and funnest way to involve people. Below you will find some ideas for games to help make this event a worth every second.

What’s That Jar: This Game is one of the more interesting. Very affordable and possibly reusable. You will need to purchase 10 to 15 jars of baby food. First, document what each jar is and mark a number or significant marking on the jar to identify it. Than remove the label and place them on a table. Guests will be asked to come up and inspect each to guess what flavor each jar is. Placing some ground rules ahead of time can make this game a little tougher. Common Rules: No tasting, No smelling and No sharing.

Guess Her Tummy: This can be a very exciting game that is easy and affordable. The only supplies you will need are scissors and some string or yarn. Each person who attends and wants to play will need to size up the mother to be, so men – don’t get too jealous. Each person will take the spoll of string and cut it to the length they feel will fit mommies tummy (think of a belt). The person who guesses close enough or right on the button gets whatever fun reward that is available.

Mommy Tips: This game requires only some index cards and pens. Each guests will write down on the card what advice they feel the mother to be should known. The best part about this game is that you don’t have to be a mom or even a female to offer advice. Whether it has to do with raising a child or improving a relationship, this game can offer some really interesting ideas. Especially from the guys that were forced to attend.
