Mother Goose is one of the most popular and most favorite nursery rhymes for most children. If this is your second child it would also make a great theme and an awesome way to have your firstborn or other children also be able to participate in the celebration and excitement of the new baby. Your existing children will love being involved and playing these baby shower games and hopefully will cherish the fun times and the arrival of the newly anticipated baby.

Here are some ideas on how to play Mother Goose Parade Baby Shower Games:

1. As an icebreaker, write the names of nursery rhyme characters on separate slips of paper and attach a slip to each guest's back upon arrival. Challenge your children and your guests to learn the names on their backs by asking yes or no questions to the other guests. Award a prize to the last person to learn her nursery rhyme identity!

2. Play Mother Goose Rhetoric - Distribute a game sheet and pencils to your guests when you are ready to play this game and set a timer for five minutes. Challenge players to write down the first line of the nursery rhyme alluded to by each phrase. The player who gets the most correct answers in the least amount of time is the winner for this baby shower game. Award the prizes that correspond to each rhyme such as a pie pan for Little Jack Horner or a pair of mittens for the Three little Kittens.

3. Another great baby shower game is to make a storyboard for the future toddler. Provide wool felt in assorted colors along with scissors, glue, markers, fabric pains and many other embellishments that are not choking hazards to toddlers. Your guests can then cut the nursery rhyme characters and props from the felt.

These are 3 awesome ways to play Mother Goose Baby Shower Games and involve your existing children in the celebration of the new baby! Also, most of your guests will enjoy playing these games and reminiscing about their own childhoods or the childhoods of their children.
