Name the baby food game.
Gather 5 different baby food jars or pouches and make sure to cover the labels or remove them to create a guessing challenge. One jar at a time, allow guessers to examine the appearance, texture, and smell of the baby food and write down their best guess. Award points for correct answers and the one with the most wins. Another fun way to play this game is to provide a baby spoon or popsicle stick for each player, so that they can taste the baby food if they desire.
Don't say baby baby shower game.
Play starts as soon as guests arrive. Some players will lose almost immediately (try not saying baby at a baby shower), but one will outlast them all. Warning: As each person forgets and says the forbidden word, everyone is bound to laugh and enjoy their loss.
Cotton ball baby shower game.
When a baby shower game is as much fun to watch as it is to play, you've got a winner...take this cotton ball game for example. Here's what you will need:
2 large bowls - one filled with cotton balls and one empty
1 large kitchen spoon
1 blindfold
With a large kitchen spoon, each player attempts to transfer as many cotton balls as possible into the empty bowl...in one minute and blindfolded. The challenge for the player is that because the cotton balls are so light, it's impossible to tell if any are actually making into the bowl. Onlookers may well be watching the player dip air into a bowl lol. The player who transfers the most cotton balls wins.
Dress up the bowls and spoon by adding decorative elements...
ribbon, stickers, or choosing colors that match the shower theme.

A familiar game with a modern twist. Pass out blank baby shower Bingo cards and ask guests to write in each square what gifts they predict the mom-to-be will receive. As mom opens her gifts, cross off the matches. The first player with five in a row shouts BINGO.
