Mommy or Daddy
Remember high school superlatives? Maybe you won “Most Likely to Succeed,” or “Class Clown.” Well, this baby shower game is similar, and it’s fun and easy to play. The host comes up with a list of superlatives that the guests will then assign to either the new mom or dad. There is no “winner” with this game, but if the parents-to-be have a good sense of humor, it’s a great opportunity to get a lot of laughs from baby shower guests. Who will get “Most Likely to Get Peed On,” “Most Likely to Put a Diaper on Backwards,” or “Most Likely to Helicopter Parent”? Bonus: this one is easily adaptable for a virtual baby shower!
