The custom of helping parents plan for a new baby has been a tradition for centuries, the origin of the modern baby shower is unknown. There is evidence that ancient cultures, such as the Egyptians, often gave gifts upon newborn children, or presented the parents with a hand-made gift after the child was born. However, baby showers as we know them today were not common until after World War II - one of the first manifestations of the baby boom. Where did the baby shower games originate?

Baby showers have always served several purposes. They allow friends and family to share the joy and excitement of welcoming a new life into the world, and they provide emotional support to new parents. It is not uncommon for an expectant mother or father to be nervous about their new role as a parent. A friendly word of advice from a friend or family member can be extremely helpful, and the presence of everyone who attends the shower is a supportive gesture that many appreciate.

The expense of a baby can put quite a strain on a couple's budget, especially if the mother will no longer be working. Baby showers offer a chance for friends and family to help expectant parents with the costs of preparing for and caring for a newborn. New parents always need both fun and practical things, and hand-made gifts or toys create memories that last a lifetime.

Traditionally, baby showers were celebrated by a new mother and only her closest friends after the baby had been born. At the time, it was considered presumptuous to hold a baby shower before the child was born (which is still the case in some cultures.) Over time, however, old traditions have relaxed, allowing for "couple showers" to which men are invited, and celebrations in the workplace that co-workers can attend. It is no longer necessary to wait until the baby is born, unless the mother-to-be prefers to wait until after she has given birth.

Baby Shower Games Planning Etiquette

It is perfectly acceptable for a friend, co-worker, or relative to throw a baby shower for the mother-to-be. Traditionally, it was unacceptable for a family-member to throw the shower since this would look as if the family was asking for gifts. However, this rule has been relaxed over time and anyone - except the expectant parents themselves - should feel free to host a baby shower.

While there are many free baby shower games and free printable baby shower games on the web, a membership to our baby shower games offers hundreds of printable baby shower games, along with printable games for other holiday parties such as printable bridal shower games, wedding shower games, birthday party games, Christmas party games, Valentine party games, Halloween games, Thanksgiving games, trivia games, bingo games, printable crossword puzzles, word puzzles, and more. We think that our library is much more exciting than the free printable games out there!

When planning a baby shower for expectant parents, be sure to consult them and learn their expectations. Ask them to choose a time that is best for them, and let the parents provide you with a guest list. Find out if there are specific baby items that they need or prefer, and if they are registered at a particular store. Mail the invitations at least 3-4 weeks before the intended party date, so guests are more likely to have an open schedule. We still aren't sure where the baby shower game started.

Couple Showers and Baby Shower Games

It wasn't so long ago that men did not participate in the birth of their children. However, the involvement of fathers in baby showers today is not unusual. Just as men are active participants in birthing classes and in the delivery, many are interested in being a part of the community celebration that welcomes their child into the world.

Modern baby showers for couples tend to be like a casual family party. Close friends may attend as well, but there are significant differences in comparison with female-only baby showers. Instead of putting an emphasis on games, the goal of a couple's shower is to spend time with family and friends, and share a good meal. Remember to offer a variety of dishes when planning food for a couple's shower - although female guests would be satisfied with a light snack consisting of a few finger foods, male guests will expect something more substantial. Parents who adopt an infant or young child also deserve a shower. Just like natural parents, new adoptive parents need baby necessities and would certainly welcome warm wishes for their new child. When planning the shower, be sure to find out what the new parents need. Let guests know ahead of time if the child is a boy or a girl, or what size clothing the child needs, etc.

Although baby showers were traditionally thrown for first-time parents only, it is not uncommon today for friends, family or co-workers to throw a shower for the second, or even the third child. Every baby deserves a special welcome into the world and parents will appreciate your help updating their requisite supply of baby items.
Unless the newborn has come along years after the couple's other children, the expectant parents will probably have kept many baby items. Consider buying personal items for the new baby, especially if you know it will be the opposite sex as the first child. The safest route to take when planning this type of baby shower is to ask the expectant parents what they have and what they need. Items include the following printable baby shower games.
