Play the Name Game! Write down potential baby names on flash cards and put them in a hat. Next, write down the meaning of each name on separate cards. Let your guests pick a name out of a hat and try to match the meaning to the name.
If the mom-to-be already has diapers and baby gear in good supply, try giving her gifts that she can use to pamper herself. Gift certificates to salons, for pedicures or a masseuse are a good start!
Put together a hospital gift basket filled with small items that the mom-to-be can enjoy after the birth. Picture frames can be put to good use. And small cellophane bags filled with DOVEŽ Dark Chocolate Miniatures will be gone in no time.
Test your guests' memory with a nursery rhyme quiz. Play a nursery rhyme CD and stop it in the middle of a rhyme. Let your guests try to finish it. If they get it right, they win a fun baby shower favor.
Make a baby shower memorable with a creative Baby Books theme. Have everyone bring a favorite book from childhood and take turns reading them aloud. Give the books to the mom-to-be when you're finished.
