A baby shower is a simple celebration of family and friends to celebrate the upcoming birth of a new baby. It is a great tradition around the world in many religions and ethnicities.
With a little bit of difference from place to place the basic motto remains the same. To shower the new mom-to-be with flowers and gifts.

With a few well chosen baby shower games, you can help your guests have fun. While at the same time they get to know each other. The baby shower games act as an ice-breaker between the baby shower guests.

Speaking of baby shower games. There are a large number of baby shower games to choose from. You could go for the a simple game such as, Who Am I? In this baby shower game, guests get to play detective. As guests arrive at your party, pin on their backs the name of a famous Mother. Then they have to ask other guests "yes" or "no" questions that will help them figure out who they are. For example, "Am I a real Mom?"; "Am I still alive?".
