Family Feud
Introduction
A game that brings everyone together a hilarious twist on the classic show for your baby shower.
Baby showers in the U.S. are always a mix of sweet and silly. There are the decorations, the onesies, the sentimental toasts and then there are the games. The games are what flip a shower from “nice gathering” into something people actually remember. They break the ice, spark laughter, and give guests stories they’ll be retelling long after the cake is gone.
If you’re after a game that’s interactive, a little loud, and guaranteed to get people yelling out answers, Baby Shower Family Feud is a winner. Borrowing its format from the TV classic, it’s perfect for showers of any size. Picture Grandma chiming in with “Bottles!” while your cousin shouts “Wi-Fi!” that mix of generations is exactly what makes it so much fun.
What You’ll Need
- Question cards or printables (make your own or buy pre-made).
- Answer key so the host knows what counts.
- Scoreboard whiteboard, poster, or a digital slide.
- Markers/pens to keep score.
- Buzzers or bells (optional); clapping or raised hands also work.
- Small prizes to reward winners.
How to Play
- Split into teams. Two teams is classic, but more teams work for big groups.
- Explain the rules. Teams take turns guessing the most popular answers; points depend on ranking.
- Play rounds. Each question is a round. Alternate turns or do face-offs for extra excitement.
- Track scores. Keep the scoreboard visible to maintain energy.
- Announce the winner. Team with the most points wins bragging rights (and a prize).
Fun Variations
Co-ed showdown: Mix in questions aimed at dads for hilarious contrasts.
Kid-friendly round: Let little guests answer simple prompts like favorite Disney movies.
Virtual feud: Run the game on Zoom/Meet and use a shared doc or slide for scores.
Speed round: Ten-second lightning round to wrap things up with a bang.
Themed feud: Tailor questions to the shower’s theme jungle, woodland, etc.
Why Guests Love It
- Family Feud is familiar, fast, and funny most guests know the show so rules are intuitive.
- It’s competitive in a friendly way, inclusive across generations, and highly memorable.
- The parents-to-be leave with laughs and stories instead of just a stack of opened gifts.
Conclusion
Baby showers should be joyful and connected Family Feud delivers both. It’s loud, silly, and simple to run whether the shower is traditional, co-ed, or virtual. Add it to your lineup and expect guests to say, “That was one of the most fun showers I’ve ever been to.”
