by

Baby showers are an elaborate affair.

Club them with the gender reveal, and it will be an even more extravagant soiree.

This brings us to the next agenda for the party- games.

Coming up with interesting games will require too much brainstorming.

Thus we have compiled a list of baby shower games for you.

  • Timer

How to Play:

Fill the baby bottles with a drink of your choice. Guests race to see who can finish their bottle the quickest. They can’t use their hands, which makes it even funnier to watch. The first one to finish their bottle wins a fun prize, like a baby-themed mug or small toy.
