Grab your good luck charms and your lucky stamps (devoted Bingo players, you know what we’re talkin’ about) and get ready to yell, “BINGO!” In Baby Shower Gift Bingo, guests receive Bingo cards — but instead of letters and numbers, the spaces they’re trying to fill are common baby shower gifts. In a twist on this classic game, the spaces are blank and guests get to fill them in with what presents they think the parents-to-be will receive. This means every Bingo card is different!

Candy in a Bottle
This next game is fun and helps guests get into the baby shower spirit ahead of the big day. Get a container — we recommend a large, glass jar or a baby bottle — and fill it with candy. Take a photo (or a video) and send it to shower guests. Tell your guests to guess the amount of candy in the container. The person whose guess is closest to the actual amount of candy in the container wins! (Bonus: think of all the candy you get to eat after the baby shower!)
Baby Wishes
Less of a game and more of an activity to bring joy to the parents-to-be. Give our Baby Wishes printable to your guests to fill in and get them to hand into the host at the end.
Baby Shower Memory Game
This baby shower activity has the added benefit of exercising the mind! To play the Baby Shower Memory Game, gather 15-20 baby-related items ahead of time and place them in a box or on a large tray. We recommend getting things like diapers, onesies, stuffed animals, diaper pins, baby wipes, pacifiers, bibs — you get the picture. On the day of the shower, gather your guests and place the items in a spot where everyone can see. Give your guests about two minutes to inspect the collection, and then cover it with a blanket. Hand out pencils and paper, and tell your guests to write down as many items as they can remember before time runs out. Whoever remembers the most items wins! Check out this post for a comprehensive list of item suggestions and more notes on how to play.
Baby Shower Pictionary
Budding artists, now’s your time to shine — it’s time for Baby Shower Pictionary! This shower game is fun, lively, and easy to prepare for. The idea is simple: Using our FREE printable, print out picture prompts ahead of time and cut them out. Fold them up, and put them in a large bowl. On the day of the shower, divide guests into teams. Each team will pick a designated artist, who will choose a prompt and draw what’s on the paper without making a sound. Their teammates will then guess what is being drawn! With prompts like “water breaking” and “driving to the hospital,” this game has the potential for absolute hilarity.
