Fun Baby Shower Games for Moms-to-be
Most women who are getting started to being mothers often find it difficult to adjust to their new life. They usually worry about building a bond with their babies. You do not master the art of motherhood overnight. You have to be with your baby more often than you imagine understanding the different cries they make for each different need. It usually comes naturally to determine what your baby exactly needs. It is called mother’s instincts.
Baby shower games are created not only to entertain your party guests but also in order to learn some basics about being a mom because being a mom is the hardest job on earth. In preparing baby shower games, you have to pick something that is both enjoyable and substantial. Here are two entertaining baby shower games that will help new moms in their life as new parents.
Do I Smell a Smelly Diaper?
This baby shower game teaches moms-to-be to determine the type of foods that are usually advised for babies. The materials that you will need in order to play this baby shower game are a pack of diapers, 6 dissimilar baby foods, papers, and pens.
Instructions:
Put a small amount of baby food in different colors and tastes in a number of diapers and crease them nice and tight. Baby foods can either be vegetables or fruits. Then, give every baby shower guest a piece of paper and pen. Pass around the diaper and let every baby shower guest presume what baby food is in the diaper just by smelling. They should not open it or else they will be disqualified. The, have them write down the name of the baby food on their piece of paper. The baby shower guest with the most correct answers becomes the winner.
After the baby shower game, you can talk about what foods are appropriate for babies and at what age should the first solid foods be given. Since, newborns only drink milk for the first few months; you can talk about ways how to prevent aspiration or how to make your baby burp.
Mother’s Instincts
It is amazing how a mother’s instincts can solve problems of their little ones and keep them out of harm. It is simply because there is no greater bond created than the bond between a mother and her child. It has been proven in several experiences of every person in the world though they do not admit it. Surely mothers know best. To play this baby shower game, a baby safety pin is all you need.
Instructions:
The first player will take control over the baby safety pin. The guest of honor will be the investigator. She will only make use of her “motherly instincts” in order to know who really holds the pin. All baby shower guests must wear an innocent or poker face. One baby shower guest will be chosen to keep the baby safety pin by the baby shower host. The mom-to-be must not know who was chosen. All of the baby shower guests should sit with their hands in a praying position. Their hand should be flat with the finger tips pointing upward. Consequently, the baby shower guest who is really holding the baby shower pin will perform the same instructions with her own hands, but with the baby safety pin between their hands. Everybody can sit in a circle with the mommy-to-be at the center coming towards every participant and asking if she has the baby safety pin. She has to instinctually discover who has the pin. Every baby shower game participant must say, “I do not have the pin” keeping an innocent baby face.
