You only need to prepare a few materials if you want to play Baby Bingo at your shower party. You’ll need pre-printed Bingo cards and several pens or pencils. You should already know how many people are coming to the party. The amount and numbers printed on your Bingo cards depend on how many guests will be there. For example, if you’re certain that there’ll be 20 people, print 20 Bingo cards with the numbers one through 20 on them, but randomly arranged.
Before the game, label the gifts with the same number you used on the Bingo cards. Then, ask the guests to sit around the mom-to-be, holding their pen and Bingo cards in their hands. When the mom picks a gift to open, she reads out the number on the present, for the guests to mark on their card. Whoever gets to receive bingo first wins the game and gets a prize.
Baby Bingo is an enjoyable shower activity. It’s a nice deviation from other games that involves cheesy stuff or tiring mechanics. Have fun with your guests by playing this Baby Bingo. They will certainly find this game exciting! If you’re interested in reading this article, might as well read The Guide to Baby Shower.
