Cucumber pass

Materials: cucumber and music

Have music ready. Have everyone makes a circle. Have a shower member put the cucumber between the knees, then have them pass it to the next person while the music plays. The person receiving the cucumber has to try to grab the cucumber without using hands. If it falls pick it up and continue playing. Once the music stops the person with cucumber still between the knees is out. ( It’s a baby shower version of hot potato).

Baby Shower SayLibs

Materials: pen and paper

This is a great game for those baby shower guests that don't want to play any baby shower games. As the couple opens gifts, you write down the statements they say regarding the gift (i.e. "It's sooo cute", "look how tiny", "I love it"). At the end, the game is "What was said on the night of conception" and you read back all the statements. Very funny!

Don't Drop the Baby
Materials: Hard Boiled Eggs, spoons, markers, pens, yarn, glue, glitter and tape for a finish line.

If the weather is nice, this game is very fun. Have everyone decorate an egg like a baby. You can draw a face and hair with a marker or you can get out some glue and use glitter and yarn. Baby shower guests will be using these eggs in a spoon race. Each person holds a spoon between their teeth or hand and balance their newly created egg-baby while trying to cross the finish line. No hands allowed!
