Not too Into Shower Games - Is this Good Instead?

So i'm not a huge fan of all the games played at showers. I’m so tired of playing bingo at every shower. I was thinking of doing the following instead…do you think this is good

Baby prediction sheets on everyone’s place setting (I want to keep all of these in a book)
A baby bottle filled with candy – guess how many is in there
How Big is the Mom to Be’s Belly – guests guess how big the belly is with streamer or something similar
Advice cards on Table
*was thinking of doing the celebrity baby match up but not sure, opinions?

So basically the only “game” would be the measuring of the belly. The rest of the things would be done at their leisure

I like ur ideas! We actually did 2 of the ones you mentioned for my shower.

1) We bought a giant baby bottle and filled it with gummy bears and had the women guess how many gummy bears were in there.....they loved it.

2) They also had to guess the size of my belly, it was pretty funny seeing how big so many of them cut the ribbon!

We also did bingo with the gifts so it kept them paying attention as I opened my presents.

I had a small shower so we only had 2 winners for each game, otherwise everyone would have gotten a prize. And we gave out Bath & Body lotion as a prize....I got them on sale so I was able to get the big bottles for like $3 each.

I like your ideas.
We are also doing note cards with out LO's name on it and having everyone write a cute message to the baby. We bought a scrapbook to pass around for everyone to put their notes in and then we can keep it in the baby's room.

my friend did a price is right game at her shower that was fun. there were a bunch of baby products (wipes etc) and 3 contestants and whoever guessed closest to the price of the product without going over won a prize.
