3. A Diaper Raffle

Usually, at baby shower parties all the attention and surprises are on the mom-to-be. Break the rule, and amaze your guests with a diaper raffle.

It is funny baby shower activity for your mates, plus you will get enough diapers for the first days for your baby.

Your friends need to bring diapers in order to enter a raffle to win a prize from you. It would be a good idea to make your gift an impressive one.

4. Write A Dipper Message

Changing diapers has never been so funny! It is one of the baby shower activities you remember for longer. Add a basket with diapers, and markers, so everyone could write silly, funny, or sweet messages you can read changing your baby diapers.

5. Onesie Making Station

Definitely one of my favorite baby shower activities so far.

All of your friends would embrace the idea to design a unique, one-of-a-kind, a super cute onesie for your baby.

Get enough plain onesies (make sure you washed them in advance), permanent markers or paints, decoration, and iron stickers, and let’s see who is the next fashion star.

6. Advice & Wishes Cards

Similar to the wish cards activity, here your guests could include useful tips, advice, and useful hints for you as a future mom.

If you choose notes in cute animal patterns you could create a wonderful display in your nursery.

7. Polaroid Photo Booth

There is nothing more precious than your sweet memories from your baby shower.

With a polaroid photo booth, you will take incredible pics with your guests.

You can make them leave a message on each photo, and use them for decoration with fairy lights in your baby’s nursery.

8. Bow Tie Bib or Headband Making Station

Design unique bibs, and headbands if you are expecting a baby girl. In the end, your baby will have personalized accessories.

9. Memorable Baby Picture Scrapbook Guestbook

Having a scrapbook instead of a guest book is a super cool idea. You can steal it as one of your baby shower activities. Ask your guests to send their baby pictures in advance, and print them.

Set a photo booth where you will place the scrapbook, some tape, colorful markers or pens, and a polaroid camera.

Your guests will have to find their baby picture, take a photo with the mom-to-be, and tape both in the scrapbook, adding a sweet message.

10. Decorating Blocks Station

Your baby’s first wooden cubes could have special personalization. Same as baby onesies, and bibs here your friends will have a lot of fun.

Fun for your guests, and cute hand-made gifts for you.

You will need burp cloths, blankets, or swaddles, stamps, or patterns of your choice. One of the best things about these baby shower activities is that you can match some of the most usable items with your nursery interior.

12. Sign A Baby Book

Such a lovely way to get baby wishes, and advice. Your guest doesn’t have to choose a greeting card for your baby shower. They can choose a baby book where to write their blessings.

13. DropBox Guestbook

Probably you have seen this on wedding or bridal shower parties, but the idea could be used for a baby shower too. Super cool decoration for your nursery.

14. Wooden Letter Message

It is really popular to have a letter decoration in nurseries. You can use it as a guest book where your friends could also leave a lovely message to your baby.
