MelissaJoanne`s poll Show results | Hide results


Other-poll poll Baby Shower games: I`m planning a friend`s shower, and I`m looking for game or activity ideas. She and I both think that the majority of shower games are stupid/not fun, but if anyone has an idea for something that`s actually fun or unusual, I`d be up for suggestions! Thanks.

I work for a hotel and there is a lady that set up a baby shower the other day with little stations (tables), one station was the cake station, the snack station, the present station, there were big glass jars with candy and little pink chinease take out boxes where everyone could mix and match their candy for a take home souvinear of the party, and they had a station (this was where the cool idea comes in) where they went to a craft store and bought all these little white cotton bibs (she said she got a dozen for like 5 bucks) and a bunch of fabric paint, and everyone can make a bib for the new baby. I think that was the neatest idea ever!! Bibs will last forever and you can either save them or use them.

Hahaha ok my mom did this one for me. You get 10 different types of chocolate bars, break off a piece put it in a diaper, then in the microwave until it melts. Now have everyone guess what kind it is! It`s funny, some people will go as far as tasting the `Poo`

here`s a few i like and also had done at my shower thanks to my creative friend who threw mine: print out a bingo sheet and tell everyone to write down everything that they can think of that the mommy-to-be would get as a gift (diapers, shoes, pack n play, books, sleep outfits, booties, you get the idea etc) and as the mommy opens up gifts they mark off the ones they had on their sheet. choose at least the 1st 5 to get a prize or something~it keeps them from getting bored to easily by this point!! another game was the string measurement game, another was just as people arrived to the shower, have them write down their name on an envelope for the mommy-to-be to send as a thank you card and sometime during the shower just pick 1 or however many you want to give a prize (it`s helpful for the mommy to know who was there and saves time later before sending thank you`s!) i just went to a shower where the mommy asked for size 3 diapers and whoever`s name was drawn out of a hat would win a $25 gas gift card....hope these help :) enjoy and have fun!!!

I don`t know why I like this game but it`s probably cuz I have a gazillion things in my purse. You do a purse scavenger hunt. You list a bunch of things like a toy, candy, nail clippers, a coupon, a $5 bill, etc. Whoever has the most stuff wins.

We did the guess how many inches the tummy is game...we also did the one where you taste all the baby foods out of the jars and try to guess what flavor it it.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
