Icebreaks and Games For Baby Shower with Halloween Theme

Pregnancy How Sweet It is

This is one of the yummiest halloween baby shower ideas.

You can let your guests find out just how much candy bars and pregnancy have in common as they race to match the pregnancy word with the candy name.

Another alternative is to pass around a dish of M&M's and have each guest grab as many as they want. Once they've taken as many as they want, announce that they have to say something about themselves for each candy! You can make it easier by having guests name a favorite movie for every green candy, or a favorite food for every red candy - Mmmm, yummy!

Carve A Pumpkin Baby

Want to see some art masterpieces? Well, you probably won't find it here, but you will get a good laugh at some of these works of art.

Give each guest a small pumpkin and a knife because they'll be carving a baby face on the pumpkin...but first, they must put the pumpkin on top of their head! When guests are finished carving their baby, have the parents-to-be judge the artist's masterpieces to find a winner.

Or you can use this Draw The Pumpkin as an alternative.

Baby Food Guess

One of the most classic ideas all about eating strange and gross things for a baby shower with halloween theme!

And you can have lots of fun in many ways.

The easiest is to mark a paper plate with numbers, in a clockwise circle. Then dab a bit of food next to each number. Give each guest a plate that they can then sample, trying to name the baby food - it's great fun to pick out the worst tasting baby foods! To make it harder, use pairs of foods with the same color, like peas and green beans, pears and applesauce, potatoes and bananas, or squash and peaches.

Or even throw experienced guests a curve ball:
1. Wash out 3 of the jars and make some new "specialty foods for the modern baby" like minced Cheetos with a little apple juice, peanut butter and grape jelly, or broccoli.
2. After filling the jars, heat them in the microwave and re-cap. As they cool, the pop-up seal will suck back down, and no one will know they've been opened.
3. Then ask guests look at jar and name it, but no tasting allowed.
