"My Water Broke!" Baby Shower Game

My Water Broke Baby Shower Game

I didn't see this one on your website, though I have seen it on others and I have done it at a friend's shower.

Need:

Ice cube trays

Small plastic babies (that will fit in ice cube tray sections) (I actually took that thin foam in a pink and cut out shapes of babies and put in the ice cube trays because I couldn't find plastic babies at the time)

Dixie bathroom cups

What you do:
Beforehand, freeze one baby each in an ice cube.
When guests have arrived, each one gets a "baby ice cube" in a Dixie cup. They are instructed they may not touch their "baby ice cube" or take it out of the cup but they can do anything else they want to "deliver the baby". The first person who has a baby free of ice yells "My water broke!" and they receive the prize! It's a hoot to see the ladies breathing on the cup, or some put it between their legs or just squeeze the cup real tight. You can do other games while waiting for someone's "water to break"!

I've played this game a few times at baby showers. It is lots of fun! If you don't want to spend your time trying to piece together the babies and ice trays that you need to play it, you can buy the whole kit or the babies online. Hope that helps! Have fun at the baby shower!
