Baby Shower Activity Generator
Suggests a game or activity idea for a baby shower from a list of 8 — guessing games, advice cards, keepsake activities — for hosts planning something beyond the usual gift-opening.
What this generator does
Draws a baby shower game or activity. The suggestions avoid the ones that centre on the guest of honour's body, which are a long-standing convention and are frequently unwelcome — worth choosing around deliberately rather than by accident.
What you'll get
This generator draws from a hand-checked list of 8 entries. Here is a spread of 6 of them, so you can see the style before you generate:
- Guess the baby's arrival date — everyone writes a guess, checked when the baby comes.
- Guess the baby's weight — closest guess wins a small prize.
- Advice cards — everyone writes one piece of parenting advice for the new parents.
- Guess-the-parent baby photo round — match baby photos to the adults in the room.
- Fill a wishes jar — everyone writes one wish for the baby's future.
- A 'price is right' style guessing game with baby products.
A fixed sample of the list, not a live draw — your own results are picked at random from all 8, without repeating until the list runs out. Original authoring for Generate Random — general baby-shower activity prompts.. Last reviewed 2026-07-18.

How this generator works
Picks one activity from a fixed list of 8, each as likely as the next: four guessing games, three keepsakes and a word scramble, and nothing centred on the guest of honour's body.
Limitations and good to know
- 8 activities in the pool, so a long shower drawing repeatedly will repeat.
- Baby showers can be difficult occasions for guests dealing with infertility or loss. Activities that require everyone to share their own experience are worth avoiding for that reason.
Entries are chosen with your browser's cryptographic random number generator, so every entry on the list is equally likely. How Generate Random works.
