A great activity to do for a baby shower is to make up a personal quiz about the mother-to-be. 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, her first word etc (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.
