The
Tray Game
Played at baby showers, bridal showers or
anywhere.
What you'll need a tray and other household items,
examples below.
Everyone
is handed a piece of paper and a pen. The object
of the game is to see who can remember the most
items on the tray. A tray full of items is brought
out with a towel over it covering the contents of
the tray. The tray is uncovered and placed in the
center of the room preferably on a table. The
guests have exactly two minutes to look over the
tray. The tray can be rotated so that it can be
seen from other angles but no touching the
contents. After the minute is up everyone writes
down what they remember. The person who remembers
the most gets a prize. To be successful you should
have a lot of things on the tray, and a list of
what is on the tray.
Examples
of tray contents ( should be small, or sample
size) Baby shower- pacifier, baby spoon, bib,
diaper, qtips, thermometer, diaper rash tube, baby
powder, baby sock, pen, invitation, fork, baby
comb, ball, regular or plastic keys, can opener,
jar of baby food, barrette, extra large safety
pin, crayon or small box of crayons... etc Thanks

Tray Game Variation
Have the person go around the room with baby items
on it as planned, but instead of asking questions
about the items on the tray ask the questions
about how the person carrying the tray is dressed!
FYI - Have the person carrying the tray leave the
room before asking questions about them.
It always gets a great laugh!! Thanks - Eileen
Clothesline Game
Hang baby items on a piece
of rope. Tell people to exam carefully and then walk out of the room
with the rope and items. When you come back into the room, most people
will think you want them to have memorized the items so they can write
them down. Fool them by asking how long the rope was.

is up (1-3 minutes), place all plates on a table or floor
and have mommy to be choose the cutest one - to win a
small prize!!
Thanks - Monica, San Pedro CA
Draw The Baby
Supplies needed: Paper plates and
writing utensils.
Each guest receives a paper plate and a writing utensil, the paper plate is
placed on top of each guests own head. They must then
accomplish the following task - draw a picture of the
mother-to-be's baby while the plate remains on their
head. (Have a camera ready, because everyone is going to
look a little silly doing this) They are not allowed to look and continue. Once
they remove the plate, they are done. After everyone has
finished, the hostess collects the plates and hands them to the mommy-to-be for judging. She then chooses which "baby" she
likes the most (cutest, funniest, whatever the mother decides as a basis) and that
person wins the prize. You must imagine how some of these babies turn out, remember, you're not looking!
Thanks - April, Whittier CA
Draw
The Baby
This baby shower game requires paper
plates, pencils/pens, and a timer.
First, the guests will put their
initials (or name) on one side of the
plate. Then flip it over to begin. The
guests have to draw a picture of a baby
on the paper plate. The key is, the
paper plate is on the top of their heads
while they are drawing. They cannot stop
and look at their drawing during this
and have 2 minutes to complete. At the
end of the 2 minutes, someone collects
the paper plates (NOT the mom-to-be) and
the mom-to-be is the judge and picks the
one she likes the best. Thanks - Dora H

| Guessing
Games for Baby Showers |
Mystery Guess:
Place odd shaped baby related objects in brown paper bags. The guests have to guess
what is in each bag without opening it.
Name the White Stuff:
Place 10 different white powdered substances in
sealed numbered plastic bags. Use things like Flour, Powdered Milk, Baby Powder, etc. Have them out
for the guests to see, and guess what is in each bag. I have made a game sheet with 10 items to
use, and a blank form for the guests to fill out.
Jelly Beans Guess
Fill a baby bottle with jelly beans or nuts, and have the guests guess the number
it took to fill it.
Pass
The Diaper
Take a newborn diaper and put 5 little baby items in the diaper and close it up. Have the guests pass the diaper
around and guess what is in the diaper. The one to guess the most items wins.
Thanks - Kim - Summerville, SC
Measure mommy:
Pass out yarn, string, or
toilet paper and have the guests take off the amount they
think will fit around a part of mommy's body. (Everyone will think it
is going to be her tummy, but instead use her
head, neck, or ankle!)
Photo Game
Collect a baby photo from each guest and one of the mother,
display them and have the guests try and pick which photo is the mother
when she was a baby.

Something Baby Showers Activities |
Create a
Keepsake
Buy a flannel baby blanket, and some pastel colored permanent fabric markers. You
will also need an embroidery hoop, to help hold the blanket tight. During the course of the shower
pass around the blanket and markers and let everyone
"autograph" the blanket, or draw, or and add any comments for the "baby to be".
You'll get some great and personal responses were so, it will be something that "baby" or mom can
keep forever.
Thanks -

Shower Activity - Baby's First Bank
Before the shower ask everyone to bring
some spare change. At the shower, I
passed around a plastic baby bottle or
you could bring a piggy bank and
everyone put in their spare change out
of their pockets or purses. As the
bottle gets passed around, have each
guest give a piece of advice for the new
mother. This should be loud enough so
all the guests could hear. Then the
money and bottle were given to the new
mom to start the baby a savings account.
It was a fun little thing for the mom to
bring home.
Thanks - Delinda
Build the Bank Game
Give everyone a name tag to wear when
they arrive. On the name tag you put
name of different baby items like: bib,
baby bottle, crib, stroller, formula,
etc. During the shower everyone must
call everyone by the item on the name
tag rather than their real name. Whoever
calls the person by her real name intead
of the baby item name has to pay .50
cents and put it in the piggy bank. If
the shower is big, this can add up to be
a great start for a savings account.
Thanks - Mina
Create a Baby Library - Activity
Place a note inside the baby shower
invitation for everyone to bring a
child's book to the shower. This is used
to start the baby's library with. The
mother-to-be will go home with a stack
of everyone's favorite books. You can
also stamped each book with a rubber
stamp that says "From the Library
of ______________" and after the
baby is born the mom can write in the
baby's name. Thanks - Delinda

Pass The Box (Can be used for any type of shower)
This is really fun, Take a small gift, like a pretty candle and place it in a box, then gift wrap it, but keep
wrapping it with different layers of gift wrap. Play some music while
passing the present around, when the music stops, the guest left
holding it unwraps the first layer of wrapping paper, then the music
starts again and the box is passed, then every time the music stops,
another layer is removed until someone finally unwraps the very last
layer,,,,, and that is the winner. Thanks - Marylou, Wyoming
Things in your Purse Game
All each guest needs is their own purse. Before the
quest arrives make a list of things you would expect to
find in a purse. Examples include a comb, lipstick,
credit card, etc.. To play: Have everyone get their
purse, have one person call off the things on list one
at a time until all the items have been called. The
person with the most items on the list wins a prize.
Thanks - Yolanda, Capital Heights - MD
