We’re here to put an end to lame games and bring a whole new vibe to your baby shower!
Here at Cotier Brand, we’re hosting connoisseurs who love to spread our love and knowledge far and wide – especially when it comes to something as intimate and special as your baby shower. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at our hand-picked selection of awesome baby shower games – that aren’t messy or annoying.
1. Guess The Baby Photo
First up on our curated list of baby shower games is a classic icebreaker: Who’s That Baby? This game is a great way to bring your guests together, especially when you’ve got a blend of friends, family, and work colleagues attending. And of course, bring on some healthy competition! Before you get started, pick up one of these awesome Who’s That Baby? templates on Etsy and print out the number of guests your expecting – plus a few extra.
How To Play:
You’ll need a pen, a corkboard, and some numbered stickers, along with a pen and one template per guest. Ask each of your guests to bring a baby photo along with them to your baby shower. Upon arrival, take each photo and number it with a sticker, and pin them up on the corkboard. Once everyone’s arrived, gather all of your guests and hand out the templates. Set the timer for five minutes and get everyone to write down their guesses. The guest with the most correct guesses wins!
2. Did Baby Poopie?
Next up on our list is our very own baby shower game: Did Baby Poopie? It’s the ultimate entertainment – and game – for any baby shower and we just know you and your guests are going to love it! Think of it as a lottery scratch-off game on the hunt for a lucky card, with a total of two potential winners. Want to know how to play?
How To Play:
Simply hand out one of the Did Baby Poopie? lottery scratch-off cards to each of your baby shower guests. Provide a coin so they can scratch their ticket off to reveal what’s underneath. If any player reveals a poop emoji, they’re instantly a winner and have to scream the word “POOP”! From there, it’s up to you as the host what their prize will be.

3. Baby Shower Bingo
Another nostalgic game adapted to an awesome baby shower game is Baby Shower Bingo. Much like its classic counterpart, Baby Shower Bingo incorporates a cross-off list, but the trick is that your guests will be looking out for each baby shower gift you open and that’s where the fun really begins! Pick up one of these awesome bingo templates from Etsy and print them off ahead of time to be super prepared.
How To Play:
In this classic spin-off, each of your guests will receive a baby shower bingo sheet and a pen to cross off what they see as you open your baby shower gifts. One by one, they’ll tick off what they have on their sheet until one lucky guest has crossed off five gifts in a row and gets to shout, “BINGO”! And they are crowned the lucky winner.

4. Baby Bottle Bowling
Now, our baby shower games list wouldn’t be complete without something a little more unorthodox – and this is certainly one of those! Welcome to Baby Shower Bowling: where the classic bowling game meets your baby shower. Pick up a bunch of multi-colored baby bottles like these ones from Amazon and grab a handful of tennis balls from your garage and away you go. Oh, and they are multi-purpose, of course!
How To Play:
Set up your baby bottles into a triangular formation – ideally in your backyard with a little bit of sand or mud to hold them. Get your guests into a line and give them each tennies ball to take their shot at knocking them down. Each guest gets five chances and the guests will the most points wins!
5. Advice And Wishes To The Parents-To-Be
Last but not least on our list of baby shower games is something a little sentimental – and completely necessary for your baby shower – the advice and wishes to the parents-to-be from your nearest and dearest. This is a wonderful way to round off your special day and you can choose to read them aloud among your guests – or save them for a rainy day with your partner. It’s totally up to you, but be sure to order some of these gorgeous cards on Etsy to help you along your way.
How To Play:
Put a little table up near the bar and have a little sign up that says “Best Wishes To The Parents” or something similar. Set up a jar of pens and your favorite cards from Etsy and ask each guest to fill out their words of wisdom before they leave your baby shower. Once you’ve got all the completed cards, gather them and keep them in a box until you’re ready to ready them with your partner.
