Baby Shower Game Please Help: Questions for New Mom
I am planning a baby shower for my sister-in-law.
I really like the bridal shower game where you ask the groom a list of questions in advance and then the bride has to guess the answers.
I would like to do a similar game at this baby shower, but I'm thinking of: (1) asking the mom-to-be to answer questions I will have previously asked either her mom about her growing up, or (2): asking her husband questions in advance about her pregnancy.
Any ideas for quesitons?
Re: Baby Shower Game Please Help: Questions for New Mom
Here's what I've come up with so far:
New Mom / Her Mom:
- What was Holly's least favorite chore growing up?
- What was Holly's first word?
- What was Holly's favorite food?
- Who was Holly's first crush?
- What was Holly's favorite toy?
New Mom / Husband
- What has Holly craved the most while being pregnant?
- Who first suggested Holly may be pregnant?
- How long was Holly sick for while being pregnant?
- Who will do more diaper duty?
- Who was the first person Holly told she was pregnant after dad?
Thank you! Thank you!
Questions for (1)
Her favorite book
The one thing she couldn't leave the house with.
Her first CD/cassette (depending on age)
The one toy she had too many of (for me it was Barbie everything!)
Was she more of a girlie girl or a tom boy?
Questions for (2)
What did she always crave?
Her favorite meal while pregnant?
Her favorite baby names, or what were the names she and her husband diagreed on?
First thing they bought together for the baby.
Where was she/he when she found out she was pregnant?
Hope these help!
A few years ago, we went to a couples shower where they sat the parents-to-be back to back with each other and gave them each a marker and about 8 or 9 small pieces of poster board . . .a la newlywed game . . . then asked them questions. They wrote down their answers to each question and then shared them all. HILARIOUS stuff.
They knew they were having a girl and I only remember a few questions:
1. Who chose the name Isabella?
2. At what age will she be allowed to date? (he wrote something stupid like 30, she wrote something reasonable like 16)
3. When will she get her ears pierced?
4. Will she go to public or private school?
.. . . It was funny because her mom and his mom came up with the questions based on the things they knew they had discussed and maybe even disagreed on
