Once you’ve got your baby animal themed baby shower planned, the last thing left is to decide how you will entertain your guests. Baby shower games are a long held tradition and can be anything from pencil and pen games to silly games. Here are some animal themed suggestions:
Name the baby animal :
Type up a list of animals on a piece of paper Number beside the animals and leave blank. Explain to guests that they need to write down the baby names of that animal. It is a lot harder than they will expect it to be! Here is an example list to start you out:
Lion – cub
Elephant – calf
Monkey – infant
Deer – fawn
Frog – tadpole (or polliwog)
Goat – kid
Goose – gosling
Fish – fry
How long is pregnancy?
Pregnancy for women can feel like forever sometimes. But, in the animal kingdom some animals are pregnant a whole lot longer than nine months. List animals down one side of a piece of paper.
On the other side list the amount of days a typical animal is pregnant. The guests must match the correct animal to the amount of time they are pregnant. Everyone will start feeling sorry for the poor things that are pregnant longer than a year!
Diapering Game:
This is a traditional baby shower game with a twist. The idea is to see who can diaper the baby the fastest, but in this case, guests will rush to diaper their baby animal the fastest. The competition can be between a few volunteers or can be done in rounds. This is a really great one to have the guys do if the shower is co-ed.
