shower games help *edited
My friends shower is this weekend and we realized that we have a few more prizes to give out and not enough games. I hate doing the usual games like bingo so we are trying to come up with like 3 more short but cute and fun games. Any ideas? TIA!
I should add that it is a bridal shower...that would have helped. I am not a huge fan of games either but the one bridesmaid (grooms sis) just had to have games.
Paige and Heather- Those games are cute though for baby showers. Love that candy bar one. I heard it being done with baby food but not candy bars.

I realized that too and edited! I think this baby is already taking my brain!
Sounds like this is her problem, not yours.
At mine to give the centerpieces away they gave it to the people who had birthdays the closest to mine.
how about bridal shower memory game?
You can make a large cardboard like the memory game with bridal shower/wedding related items. Once a person gets the two pieces correct, they win a prize.
We did this for my sister's baby shower but it can easily be turned into a bridal shower as well.
I'm not a big shower game person either. But, the one we did at my shower that wasn't so bad was that I walked around with a tray that had common household items on it (spatula, slotted spoon, loofa, matches, etc.). I made sure everyone had a brief look at it. We told the guests it was a memory game. Then, I left the room with the tray and they had to write down what I was wearing. Whoever got it right (down to the jewelry) or closest won. It was kind of fun to trick people.
The other one that is ok is to ask the guests questions on how well they know the bride and groom (moms usually win this one). Or, ask the bride questions to see how well she knows her future husband (ask the groom the questions beforehand). For the second way, you could have each guest get a card with a yes on one side and no on the other. Before the bride answers the question, they hold up whether they think she will get it right or not. They get a point if they get that right (does that make sense?).

I like that twist. I will have to suggest it to the MOH. And yes, it makes sense. (how well they know the bride and groom)
Oh, I love that memory game!

We did this at my baby shower. It was a huge hit.
For a generic game, if you are using disposable plates, you can right something on the bottom of a plate. Like "I Do" or something wedding-y. Whoever has that plate wins.
You could also do the clothes pin game for a bridal shower. Just instead of saying baby, make the word be wedding or bride.
