If you say it, the person you’re talking to gets to collect your clothes pin and put it on their own clothes.

Five Little Ducks

I may have saved the silliest game for last. The Five Little Ducks game from Play Party Plan is a blast, but fair warning: things might get a little wild!

Anything that involves kids and throwing things is probably going to get a little out of hand, right?

All you need are a bunch of little rubber duckies and a bucket to get the fun started!

Gather up all the kids at the party–call it getting your ducks in a row–and bring them outside. Split them into pairs, with one partner standing about 8 feet away from the bucket. Put their partner in between them and the bucket.

The name of the game? Toss rubber duckies into the bucket, all while the partner in the middle has to “duck” when the ducks fly over their head!

Hopefully this has given you some great inspiration for baby shower games for kids. Have fun getting the party started!
