I’ve attended a lot of baby showers, including my own, where fellow party guests and I have played all sorts of baby shower games. I’ve guessed the baby’s weight and arrival date, I’ve ooh’d and aah’d over the cute baby items from my friend or family member’s registry (tiny clothes really are so cute), and I’ve even smelled diapers full of melted candy bars to guess their contents.
At the most recent baby shower I attended, we had to attempt a baby-themed word scramble and word search. Through the process, some fellow moms sitting at the table with me discussed how we could make a more modern version. We’d remove outdated words like “Baby Powder” and add terms like “Paid Parental Leave” and “Pumping at Work.”
So, our team created a word scramble for the modern mom, along with a few other free printable games for your next baby shower. Plus, we’ve rounded up a few other baby shower games and activities that don’t require you to sniff any faux doody-filled diapers. None of us need any more of those—fake or not.
All of these games are low-effort to make and easy to facilitate. Trust us, your baby shower guests will thank you. Keep scrolling for 20 of the best baby shower games and printables!
Don’t worry, this baby shower word scramble comes with the answer key. If some of these scrambled words look a little tricky, don’t feel bad, we even had a hard time cracking some of these and we made them! Download the free baby shower printable below.
Test your friends’ musical knowledge with this low-key mad-lib style game that lets guests complete the title of a song with the word baby in it. Also serves as solid baby shower playlist inspo, too!
Let’s face it, emojis bring a smile to everyone’s face. This fun game lets guests have fun on their own time by “reading” the emojis to discover the title of popular children’s books—it can get really creative, and funny!
The baby wishes game is a classic for a reason—parents leave with a sweet memory they can look back on for years. It’s also keeps guests engaged with minimal effort, and they often come up with some great answers. Consider printing on these on cardstock for a longer-lasting keepsake.
This is easy to execute with a quick Google search and a printer. The photos could be displayed as part of the baby shower decor or simply collaged to create your own printable worksheet. Number each image and let the guests loose to have fun guessing. Not into the DIY? Purchase a digital download ‘Guess the Celebrity Baby’ game from the Etsy links below!
