Baby Shower Quiz Activity

A great activity to do for a baby shower is to make up a personal quiz about the mother-to-be. Use the following questions as a quide and add a few of your own aswell. 

Divide the guests into 2 – 5 teams. The mother-to-be will be in a team of her own. Each team can select a team name. Team names are a good opportunity for a bit of fun, you could ask each team to come up with a name based on what the team thinks the babies first or middle name will be. Or the team could guess the due date of the baby and that becomes their name.

Write questions based on the personal details of the mother-to-be, for example her birth weight & height, the first word she spoke when she was a baby (you will need to have a secret conversation with the grandmother-to-be to find out this information). Write other questions about motherhood and what the new mother can expect. Also think of some group challenges for the mother-to-be and a team to have fun with. We have included some
examples of questions and challenges, use them or let your imagination go wild and think of your own! This quiz will make your party stand out as a unique baby shower.
