Baby Shower Bingo

One of the recently popular games played at baby showers is a modified version of bingo. If you're looking for additional entertainment for your party, baby shower bingo could definitely bring harmless delight to your guests!

How to Play Baby Shower Bingo
There are two ways to play baby shower bingo.

The first version would require you to give your guests a blank bingo card. The number of squares will depend greatly on how many guests you've invited to your baby shower. You should still stick with columns B to O but you don't have to provide five blank boxes for every column. Of course, don't forget to label the center box FREE.

Now, ask your guests to label each box with items they believe you'll receive as gifts. For greater fun, you can ask them to draw the items instead. You may or may not allow your guests to use the same label for more than one box. When it's time to open your gifts, ask your guests to cross out the boxes that correspond with each gift item you receive. What the winning pattern would be is all up to you. It can be a plain horizontal, diagonal, or vertical line. It may also be the first guest to cross out the corner boxes, get a black out (having all boxes crossed out), or the first one to get five boxes right, regardless of the pattern.

The second version can be played by any number of guests and follow the same rules of the original. This time, however, you'll be handing them printed bingo cards. The items listed in the boxes are items that moms-to-be are most likely to receive during baby showers.

You have two options on how to proceed with the game. You could write down the same items on separate pieces of paper, place them inside any non-transparent container, and draw out pieces of paper from it one by one until your guests form the winning pattern. Likewise, it's up to you to determine what the winning pattern would be.

On the other hand, you can also base it on the gifts you have received. Guests tick out boxes in their bingo cards that correspond with the gifts you've opened up.
