With that being said, there is nothing worse than the awkwardness of a room full of women staring at each other, with nothing to talk about.

Dirty Diaper Game ~ Great for couples showers too! Using a Sharpie pen, number 6-8 disposable diapers. Melt or smash different kinds of candy (M&M's, Snickers,Baby Ruth, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups) into each diaper. Give each guest a piece of paper numbered 1-8 (or however many diapers you are using.) Pass the diapers with the smashed candy around the room. Each guest must examineand smell the contents of the diaper to determine what the candy it is. They then write down which candy bar they thinkis on each diaper. The guest with the most right wins a prize. Have your camera ready for this game, you will get somepriceless pictures!

String Around the Belly ~ Pass around a big ball of yarn and some scissors. Have each guest cut off how much string they think would fit around the mother-to-be's belly. Measure each guests' string by placingit around the mother's belly. The baby shower guest who comes the closest wins!

Pass the Package ~ This is really fun! Take an item (such as a candle, picture frame, dish cloths, etc)and place it in a box. Gift wrap the box with several layers of giftwrap. Play some music while passing thepresent around, when the music stops the guest with the gift in her hand starts to unwrap it. Then the music startsagain and the box is passed, keep doing this until someone finally unwraps the last layer...this person is the winner.

Nursery Rhyme Game ~ Each guest is assigned a nursery rhyme charactér's name at the start of the shower and are given a name tag with that name. Throughout the shower each person is to be addressed by that name rather than their real name in conversation and at all times. If a person calls you by your real name, that person will have to recite your character's nursery rhyme. haha fun! ~ Submitted by Charla

Don't Cross Your Legs ~ Give each guest a clothes pin when they enter. Anytime somebody crosses their legs the first person who catches them gets the clothes pin. Person with the most clothes pins at the end wins. The game ends at a designated time, or after one person has all the clothes pins.

Safety Pin in Rice Game ~ Fill a small bowl 3/4 full with dry rice. Add small safety pins to the mix. Blindfoldeach guest and give them the chance to remove as many safety pins as possible in one minute. The guest who finds the most pins wins the game. This baby shower game idea is actually pretty hard to do since the pins and the rice feel the same. Make sure to returnall the pins into the bowl before each guest starts. Then everyone gets a fair chance at winning! Preparation: small bowl,small safety pins, blindfold, paper and pen to record guest results.

Baby Shower Bead Unscramble ~ Find some small beads with letters on them (craft stores have them.) Come up witha baby word such as diaper. Buy enough lettered beads for each team (group of 2-3 guests) to spell the word diaper. Have guests pair up and hand each team a baggy with the lettered beads in it. The first team to unscramble the beads andcome up with the word is the winner.

Unwrapping Game ~ For this baby shower game idea, set a timer to go off every five to ten minutes as the mom-to-be is opening her gifts.The guest whose present is being opened at the time the buzzer sounds, gets a small prize. Easy and fun!

Tray Game Variation ~ This baby shower game idea is similar to the classic "Baby items on a tray memory game", only with a fun twist!Have the person go around the room with baby items on it as planned, but instead of asking questions about the itemson the tray ask the questions about how the person carrying the tray is dressed! FYI - Havethe person carrying the tray leave the room before asking questions about them.

Guess the Baby Food ~ Have 10 or so baby food jars. Remove each label from the jars & number eachjar lid 1-10. On a poster board tape the labels from the jars, have the guest try to match them with the right babyfood by writing their answers down on paper. Just make sure you write the correct answer down so you can check themonce everyone is done. This baby shower game idea is fun, kind of gross, and pretty hard!
