Hi ladies,
I'm starting to plan my gender party for mine and DH's family and I was wondering if any ladies have any ideas for really fun games for men and women to play.
I thought some of you may have had awesome baby showers before or been to one. So I will just incorporate the shower games into the gender party.
I would like to go beyond the classics like: baby food game, diaper chocolate game, baby bottle game, dress the doll blind folded etc.
Some new fun ones I have found are not kid friendly but hilarious!
The plunger toilet paper 'how babies are made' game, and the cucumber passing game.
One that I have found I think would be fun
It's for men only. They hold a phone to their ear and have a baby doll under the crook of their arm while they hang baby's clothes on a 'clothes line' that two people are holding.
Another one where they have to blow up a balloon and put it under their shirt after which they have to tie their shoes.
Also there was a musical pass the present around a circle where a present was wrapped in several layers of paper and every time the music stops the person opens a layer of the paper.
That's what I have come up with thus far. Maybe the last two games.
Then an oldie from the first baby shower DH and I had from his family with DS#1
A bowl of rice and small and med sized safety pins! It's FUN and challenging!
As for the gender reveal I think DH and I will just take the 'pretend' U/S scan result to the party store or bakery and we will either fill a box with pink balloons or have the baker bake a cake with pink inside... I just love the balloon box thing though, that's what I did for my mom.
Thanks for your help ladies!
I can't wait to have this fun simple little party...his family is going to go nuts at the result!!!!!!
