<\/p>\n
A coed baby shower is simply a baby shower for men and women, rather than the traditional women-only event. Instead of the mom-to-be celebrating with just the “girls,” both parents-to-be host together and invite everyone who’s excited about the baby, including partners, dads, brothers, and friends of every kind.<\/span><\/p>\n Coed baby showers (sometimes written “co-ed baby shower”) tend to feel more relaxed than a classic shower. Think a backyard barbecue, lawn games, and a mix of active and trivia games rather than dainty crafts. The best coed baby shower games avoid overly traditional or niche elements and lean into universal fun that any guest can enjoy.<\/span><\/p>\n The key to a coed baby shower everyone loves is choosing baby shower games for men and women that foster teamwork, friendly competition, and a few laughs. Here’s how to keep a mixed crowd engaged:<\/span><\/p>\n Now, on to the games. From the funniest baby shower games to easy baby shower activities and fun baby shower games for every guest, these fun baby shower games and baby shower game ideas cover it all. We’ve grouped these coed baby shower games by type so you can build the perfect lineup for your crowd.<\/span><\/p>\n If you want a few laughs, start here. These are the funniest baby shower games on the list, and they’re some of the best baby shower games for breaking the ice with a mixed group. Funny shower games loosen everyone up fast.<\/span><\/p>\n Among the most hilarious baby shower games, the infamous dirty diaper guessing game is sure to have people laughing (or at least wrinkling their noses). Melt various chocolate bars and smear them into clean diapers. Guests smell each dirty diaper and guess the candy bar. The person with the most correct guesses wins a prize.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Newborn diapers and a variety of melted candy bars.<\/span><\/p>\n This drinking game kicks off the fun with friendly competition. Fill small baby bottles with water, milk, or juice, and line them up on a table. On “go,” participants race to grab a baby bottle and chug it through the nipple as fast as possible. The first person or team to finish wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Several baby bottles and a drink of your choice.<\/span><\/p>\n One of the funniest games on this list is a race to change a diaper the fastest while blindfolded. Give each guest or team a teddy bear or baby doll, a diaper, a blindfold, and clothes pins. On “go,” each person puts on the blindfold and changes the diaper on the baby doll. The first to finish wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> A teddy bear or baby doll, newborn diapers, and blindfolds.<\/span><\/p>\n This baby-themed spin on beer pong swaps ping pong balls for pacifiers. Fill six to 10 cups with a beverage of your choice. Instead of tossing ping pong balls, guests bounce a pacifier into the cups. When someone makes a cup, the other team drinks it and removes it. The first team out of cups loses.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Cups, a drink, and a couple of clean pacifiers.<\/span><\/p>\n Don’t like complicated games? “My Water Broke” is a waiting game that takes care of itself. Freeze miniature plastic baby dolls into ice cubes and drop one into each guest’s drink as they arrive. Once the ice melts and the baby doll is freed, that guest shouts “My water broke!” to win a prize.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> An ice cube tray and small plastic baby dolls.<\/span><\/p>\n One of the most popular coed baby shower games is harder than it sounds. Give each guest a clothespin as they arrive and tell them they can’t say the word “baby.” If they slip, another guest can claim their clothespin. Whoever has the most clothespins at the end of the party wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> A clothespin for every guest.<\/span><\/p>\n This classic party game uses one cheap supply: toilet paper. Split guests into teams and pick one “baby” per team. On “go,” teammates race to wrap their baby head to toe in toilet paper like a swaddle. The team with the fastest, neatest wrap wins. It’s a guaranteed photo op.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> A few rolls of toilet paper.<\/span><\/p>\n A novel twist on pong that keeps things baby-themed. Set up cups in a triangle and have guests toss baby socks (instead of ping pong balls) into the cups. Make a cup, and the other team is out one. The first team to clear the other’s cups wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Cups and several rolled-up pairs of baby socks.<\/span><\/p>\n Active and Team Coed Baby Shower Games<\/b><\/p>\n Design: Bonjour Berry<\/a><\/p>\n These active baby shower games get everyone moving, and they’re perfect for large groups and coed crowds who’d rather compete than sit still. Active shower games are also a great way to make a baby shower fun for men who don’t love the traditional baby shower games.<\/span><\/p>\n For a <\/span>fun baby shower game<\/b><\/a> that requires no diapers, try baby bottle bowling. Set up 10 baby bottles in a triangle like bowling pins and mark a lane with a carpet or plastic runner. Guests roll a small ball down the lane to knock down as many baby bottles as they can. Highest score wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> 10 baby bottles and a small ball.<\/span><\/p>\n If you want to get moving, the stroller race is one of the best baby shower games. Grab a kid’s toy stroller and have each participant run it to a set point and back. The fastest guest wins. To make it a team game, set up a relay so each person runs one leg before handing off the stroller.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> One or two toy strollers.<\/span><\/p>\n Take the classic game of Twister and give it a baby shower twist. On each colored circle, tape a baby-related word like “diaper,” “bottle,” or “pacifier.” When a guest spins and lands on a circle, they call out the word before placing a hand or foot. Last one standing wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> A Twister mat and baby-word labels.<\/span><\/p>\n With a small-to-medium guest list, baby shower charades keeps everyone entertained. Before the party, make cards with baby-related actions to act out, such as burping a baby, playing peek-a-boo, or rocking a baby to sleep. Divide into two or three teams and give a point for each correct guess. Most points wins a <\/span>baby shower favor<\/b><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Charade cards and a timer.<\/span><\/p>\n A team version of the diaper challenge. Line teams up relay-style, and one at a time, each blindfolded teammate runs to a baby doll, changes its diaper, and races back to tag the next player. The first team to get everyone through wins. Chaos and laughter guaranteed.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Baby dolls, diapers, and blindfolds.<\/span><\/p>\n Guessing games are the easiest way to include every guest at once, from grandparents to the guys who “don’t do baby shower games.” Whoever gets the most correct guesses wins.<\/span><\/p>\n For this fun baby shower activity, pick up several jars of baby food and remove the labels. Guests taste each one and guess the flavor. The person with the most correct guesses wins a prize. (Tip: keep a cheat sheet so you can call out the answers.)<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Several jars of baby food and spoons.<\/span><\/p>\n If you love pop culture, you’ll love this celebrity baby guessing game. Make a list of <\/span>unusual celebrity baby names<\/b><\/a> like Blue Ivy, North, and Apple. Guests match each baby name to the celebrity parents, and the guest with the most correct answers wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> A printed list of celebrity baby names.<\/span><\/p>\n This guessing game doubles as an icebreaker. Before the shower, ask guests to send a baby photo of themselves. Print the baby photos, number them, and post them near the entrance. As guests arrive, they guess which baby is which guest. Most correct guesses wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Baby photos and a poster board.<\/span><\/p>\n This coed baby shower game gets guests competitive while they learn about the parents-to-be. Write trivia questions mixing clever baby facts with details about the couple’s parenting style and the mom-to-be’s childhood. You can also find printable questions to match your <\/span>baby shower theme<\/b><\/a>. Most correct answers wins.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> A list of trivia questions.<\/span><\/p>\n Raising a little one is expensive, and this fun game proves it.

The guest with the most correct answers can spin a wheel to win a prize.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> A list of baby items and their prices.<\/span><\/p>\n A passive guessing game guests can play as they arrive.

It’s an easy way to get people mingling early.<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> A baby bottle and small items to count.<\/span><\/p>\n Test your guests’ knowledge of baby animal names.

Great for a coed crowd that wants the laughs without the “ick.”<\/span><\/p>\n What you’ll need:<\/b> Diapers and a handful of baby items.<\/span><\/p>\n Design: David Michuki<\/a><\/p>\n Some baby shower classics are coed-friendly with zero tweaks. These popular baby shower games are easy to set up and familiar to everyone, and they’re the shower games your guests will recognize right away.<\/span><\/p>\n This classic baby shower game keeps the entertainment going while the guest of honor opens gifts.
