As we LOVE a themed party, we decided to throw our friends Jon & Jenny a jungle themed baby shower to compliment their newly decorated jungle themed nursery !
games we played were;
Jungle Juice
Each person was given a full baby bottle of juice (not that I condone this being a dental nurse !) and the first person to drink all the juice won the game. It was harder than it looked and some did a lot better than others using various techniques !
This was the standard; buy a selection of baby foods, disguise the name and the guests had to guess what the flavour was. We found a variety of answers for the ‘egg custard’ one which included ‘apple pie’ and ‘rhubarb and crumble’ ! amazing how your senses can so easily get confused !
Guess the week of the belly
I printed a selection of photos of the lovely mummy to be; Jen, and all the guests had to put the photos in order with the weeks attached to how far gone she was in her pregnancy !
We had the daddy to be; Jon and his friend compete to dress their own animal (a monkey and a lion) in a nappy, vest, baby grow and cardigan BLIND FOLDED. This was very funny to watch and they did surprisingly well !
following on from that, mummy to be then had the challenge of putting a ‘terry nappy’ or in our case a bath towel on her husband using 3 safety pins… again, amusing and she did a great job !
another standard baby shower game; passing a ball of string around and asking each guest to cut it to the circumference of Jenny’s belly. A couple of guests were way out ! but two of her friends got it more or less spot on !
for the grand finale …
Shower Surprise !
my husband Nic’s genius idea. Both husband and wife had to sit down together side by side.. four willing guests took a jelly baby filled balloon and dramatically popped them over their heads creating a colourful shower of jelly babies over their heads.
We had a great time, and hope everyone else did too.. thanks to everyone who came !
