Have everyone bring a baby photo and try to figure out who's who.
Write down a list of animals and see who can guess the terms used for their young. Did you know a baby kangaroo is a joey?
Gather up a few unusually flavored baby foods (ham and pineapple puree, anyone?) and have guests perform a taste test.
Nasty, but a classic. Melt different types of chocolate bars (caramel, nuts, etc) in baby diapers and have guests guess which is which- or have them race to devour their diaper first.
Have guests flex their sculpting skills by making play doh babies. Give prizes for categorizes such as most anatomically correct, creepiest, funniest, and best overall.
Like the apple version but with the tops of baby bottles instead.
Fill baby bottles with your drink of choice. Make it a bit more fun for non-pregnant guests by adding some booze, then have guests race to chug them down.
A gift that'll make the mom-to-be's endless changing sessions a bit easier to bear: have guests write funny messages on a bunch of diapers.
Challenge guests to not say the word "baby". If someone slips, they have to give up their clip (or bow tie, or whatever). Whoever holds out the longest gets a prize.
Babies come with a whole lot of stuff. See who's best at guessing the cost of it all.
Go a more sentimental route by having attendees write down their wishes for baby. Check out this free printable.
Set up a onesie decorating station. Having cute iron-ons already prepared ensures that even non-crafty guests can participate.
Set up this version of the childhood classic, or make your own board.
Have guests cut pieces of yarn to a length they think corresponds to the circumference of the mom-to-be's belly. Might as well have fun with the one time it's OK to comment on a woman's growing waistline.
In this spin on the classic, guests score when a gift they've predicted (nursing bra, hooded towel, Diaper Genie) is opened.
Leave a newborn-baby-themed word scramble at each guest's place setting for an easy and optional ice-breaker.
See who can guess the length of different animals' gestation periods. You can use this free printable or make your own list. It'll make you thankful to not be an elephant.
Have guests strap on fake baby bellies and navigate their way through a game of Twister. Let the real pregnant lady judge from the sidelines.
Write down prominent lines from well-known children's books, read them aloud, and see who knows their kids lit best.
Blow up photos of mom and dad (and other relatives if you'd like) and cut them into strips so guests can rearrange them to see what baby may look like. The results are equal parts funny and creepy.
Have guests write down their words of wisdom on notecards or pieces of paper, and store them in pretty envelopes or a notebook for the mom-to-be. This blogger had the idea to adapt Martha Stewart's wedding album for this purpose.
Set a timer and see which guest can write down the most songs featuring the word "baby."
Fill a giant bottle with candies, and have guests guess how many there are. Whoever comes closest takes the treats home.
Write down a list of names of characters from different TV families (like The Brady Bunch, The Simpsons, The Adams Family) and have guests try to guess the correct show.
For a more active baby shower, set up a bunch of baby bottles in a triangular formation with a bit of sand in them. Have guests use a tennis ball or other small ball to knock them down.
