Easy Baby Shower Games

When it comes to planning, we know you are looking for easy baby shower games that don't take a lot of time to plan - and aren't too complicated for guests to play. With that in mind, below is a list of easy games that your guests will love!

"This was our favorite baby shower game to play"

First off, I have to tell you about this silly but super fun game called "Pin The Pacifier On The Baby" – it's perfect for getting guests to relax and feel comfortable. The way it works is basically like the traditional "Pin The Tail On The Donkey Game."

It comes with a big, colorful poster, an eye mask, a soft blindfold, and removable and reusable pacifier stickers that you can write your name on. 

You put on the blindfold, grab a pacifier sticker, and try to pin it on the baby poster. Whoever gets closest wins! I found the one above on Amazon and it had so many good reviews that I bought one for my nieces baby shower - like I said, it is super silly, but does its job at getting guests to feel comfortable, and is the perfect ice breaker game.

The "My Water Broke" Baby Shower Game

Printable Game Sheet

My Water Broke Baby Shower Game

The "My Water Broke" baby shower game has always been a popular choice among our readers.

The night before the baby shower, you will want to freeze the little plastic baby figurines in ice cube trays so they will be ready in time for the baby shower.

Then, the day of the shower, have a small table or space on the counter designated for this game.

We thought we'd make your planning a bit smoother by making up a printable game sheet explaining how to play.

You can get it over at our printable site - then simply print out the PDF file, and place it in an 8x10" frame. We designed them in blue, pink or green.

Place the framed instructions, cute drinking glasses, straws, light colored punch or soda, and a bowl full of ice cubes (to keep the ice cubes frozen while they sit on the table, you can fill a large bowl with crushed ice, and then place a smaller bowl, filled with the ice cubes/plastic babies inside of the smaller bowl.)

Have guests fill their glasses making sure to only use 1 ice cube. The first guest to have their "water break" is the big winner, and gets a prize!
