Tips for Hosting

Set a 3-minute timer for the word scramble. The most correct answers wins a small prize.
Print the word search on cardstock and leave it on the tables for guests who arrive early.
Have a few pens tied with ribbon at each table so no one has to hunt for one.
Keep the answer keys folded in your pocket so you can crown the winner right away.

How do you play the baby shower word games?

Hand each guest a game sheet and a pencil, set a timer for five minutes and say go! The guest who unscrambles the most baby words (or finds the most words in the word search) wins a prize.

Answer keys are included, so the host can check answers quickly. Play both games back to back, or one early and one later in the party.

How to Make Your Printables Last Year After Year

Want to use these game sheets again and again? Print them on sturdy cardstock and run them through a laminator, or slip each page into a clear sheet protector. Then use dry-erase markers and simply wipe them clean when you are done. Store them in a folder or binder and they will be ready to go next time!
