baby shower GALOR part #2

Lately, a lot of my friends are having children and I have constantly been going from one baby shower to the next. Here are some of the different foods/recipes and activities




Games:

1. Crap happens: my friend laid out diapers on a table. Each diaper had something a little different in each one. The guests are supposed to guess what is in the diaper without tasting it. You can smell, touch, etc. The guest with the most correct answers wins!

2. Baby stats: have each guest guess how long, the weight, the date, the time, the eye color, the hair color of the soon the be newborn. My friend also added in some fun. The last part of the question was, what do you think the new mom steal from the hospital? Let's be honest! Who doesn't load up on the diapers, wipes, etc. lol! I was even guilty of this! My friends told me it wasn't stealing, more like taking what is yours because they are actually supposed to throw out anything that was left over from the room during your hospital stay.

3.Pacifier Toss Have guests stand in a circle and take turns tossing the pacifier to each other. The person who catches it has 10 seconds to name a baby item -- without repeating one that's already been said. If you repeat an item, or don't call out an item in time, you're out of the game. If you are the last person standing, you WIN!

4. Tinkle in the Pot: Each player puts a balloon under their shirt while holding a ping pong ball between their knees. Player must waddle down the line and drop the ball into a jar. This was actually really difficult for us, and we had a lot of people, so we lined up everyone that made it in the first time to race off against each other, the fastest won!.. But you can run the game however you want, even relay!

5. Rice rice baby!- Blindfolded guests will race to find baby pins in a bowl of rice. The one who gets them all moves on to the next round!

6. mom or dad baby shower game. One person read the questions one by one and we had to try and guess if the question applied to Mom or Dad. For example, the first question was "Who was born with blonde hair?" So if you thought it was Mom then you put on your lips and if you thought it was Dad you put on your mustache. ( I am not going to lie. I lost this game! lol )

7. Guess that baby food! You are better off blind folding the ones who are being fed, this way they can't even see the color of the baby food, which means they can only rely on their taste buds! Also, take the wrapper off so the ones who are feeding don't have any idea either and can also try it out for themselves. But the ones that were feeders for the one I was involved in were too scared to do it!


Clever Ideas:
1. Craving section- dedicate a WHOLE section to everything that the new soon to be mom has been craving during her pregnancy! Genius! That would have made me extremely happy! Make sure to add some tums close by! lol!


Rawkin pink punch-
