Baby shower games men may enjoy

April 30, 2009

With co-ed baby showers a rising trend among contemporary couples, the traditional female-only shower games may not be appropriate anymore. Though this hardly means the party won't still be fun.

Games are a big part of baby showers and there are many baby-themed games that can be enjoyed by men and women.

One popular game is the baby bottle drinking contest. Fill several baby bottles with milk or juice and challenge the guys at the party to see who can finish off the bottle the quickest. Be sure to have a camera ready, as it will most likely turn into a hilarious spectacle.

Another game to try out is mirrored from the popular game show The Price is Right. Display various baby items such as carriages or toys, and have people guess how much they cost. Incorporating prizes into the game for the winners will only elevate the fun factor.

Finally, a game that expectant mothers may truly appreciate is diaper Olympics, where the dad-to-be, along with his friends, take a toy baby and attempt to see who can change a diaper the quickest. In most cases, it may turn out to be vital practice for the new dads.
