My sister is having her 4th and final child. We are throwing her a baby shower next month and I really want some unique ideas as far as games and activities. Been to lots of baby showers so got all the common games...but have you seen any different games or activities that really stood out at a baby shower?
Re: baby shower
Why are you throwing a shower for a 4th child?
One cute one they had at my baby shower was they took various containers of baby food (carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, etc.) and removed the labels. They passed them around and everyone could smell them, but not taste. You had to guess what each one was. It was funny watching my older relatives "fight" over what was in each jar!
I'm also a big fan of the bingo while she is opening gifts. It keeps people engaged during the process.
How sweet of you to do this for her!
This.
That sounds fun with the baby food! Thanks!
Everyone of my friends and family I know has a baby shower for each baby they have. Is that a VA thing or something only? I just assumed that was the norm...cause it is here. Isnt every baby just as important to celebrate as the first born?
Baby showers aren't celebrations of the baby, they're celebrations of the mother-to-be. And you're only a mother-to-be once.
I've heard that in some circles this is the norm, but in my circle it's tacky. Your sister should have everything that she needs for a baby by now, considering this is round #4. Now it's just an AW gift grab.
i like the poopy diaper game,
melt a variety of candy bars in cheap diapers, number them and pass them around ladies get to look and smell but not taste. person to get the most right wins.
makes for some great pics!
babyruth and sugarbabies are fun of course
also have each guest dress a babydoll blindfolded, time each guest, remove a few secondes for missing buttons or being on backwards etc, fastest wins. (also funniest looking wins?)
