others, has inspired many adorable baby showers. Entertain guests by reminding them of their childhood with this

several Dr. Seuss baby shower games that can be played.
“An Elephant Never Forgets”
Dr. Seuss’s famous character Horton, from “Horton Hears a Who” is an elephant. In keeping with the old saying
that “elephants never forget,” have party guests test their memory skills with a tray full of baby items
covered with a blanket. Remove the blanket for one minute and let the participants view the objects. Replace
the blanket and then give them five minutes to remember all of the items. The person who gets the most items
correct wins this game.
Those are not Stars, What is in the Jar?
Using a play on the book “Star-Bellied Sneetches,” Dr. Seuss baby shower games can also involve baby food. One
variation of this game uses ten jars of baby food with the labels removed and new labels of one to ten placed on
the jar. Line the jars up and give each guest a piece of paper. Then let them figure out what kind of baby food is
in each jar. Another variation of this game involves tasting each food and determining the flavor. Try to keep
these single flavored baby foods to reduce confusion. The person who gets the most jars right wins.
Don’t Forget to Say the Things that Went on There That Day
No Dr. Seuss baby shower games theme should go without a rousing game of trivia. Select a few Dr. Seuss books
and pull a few passages from each. Then read them aloud to the party. Let guests guess which books they came from.
Some favorites to use are “The Cat in the Hat,” “Horton Hatches the Egg” or “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue
Fish.” Quotes about the characters Thing 1 and Thing 2 are particularly popular to use for twin baby showers.
The individual who gets the most references correct gets a prize.

the bottle is always fun. Be sure to remember to count the jelly beans before the party however. Another game
that can be played is a game to guess the expense of certain baby related items. For this game, simply pick
ten items and write down the total purchase price of each thing. Then let participants guess how much each
item is worth.
