Pram Pong
Introduction
You’ve played beer pong. You’ve maybe even played water pong at a family party. But have you ever tossed ping pong balls into a stroller and called it a baby shower game?
Welcome to Pram Pong a gloriously ridiculous challenge where guests aim to land ping pong balls into baby-related containers like strollers, bottles, buckets, or (if you're brave) diapers.
It’s goofy, competitive, and a weirdly good way to get people out of their seats and doing something vaguely athletic in the name of baby fun.
What You’ll Need
- 1–2 baby strollers (any kind will do bonus if the wheels squeak).
- Ping pong balls at least 20 for nonstop play.
- A few containers of varying sizes: baby bottles, burp cloth buckets, plastic cups, etc.
- A long table, floor space, or hallway to serve as the ‘court.’
- Tape or markers for throw lines based on difficulty.
- Optional: a score sheet, team signs, or mini trophies for flair.
How to Play
- Set up your ‘pram pong court’ with strollers or buckets at one end and the throwing line at the other.
- Guests can play in teams or solo. Each player gets a handful of ping pong balls to toss or bounce toward the stroller (or chosen baby-themed targets).
- Every ball that lands inside the stroller or target earns a point. Trickier targets = more points.
- Rotate turns, keep score, or go free-for-all depending on the crowd’s vibe.
- Optional rule: if a ball bounces off the stroller and lands in a diaper pail? Double points. Because chaos.
Fun Variations
Bottle Bonus Round: Try to bounce a ball into an upright baby bottle. Not easy. Very satisfying when it works.
Diaper Dunk: Place clean diapers open-side up on chairs. It’s a weird visual, but a hilarious challenge.
Speed Toss: One-minute clock. Sink as many shots as possible while your teammate yells fake encouragement.
Team Relay: One player throws while the other runs to collect balls and refill the stash. Fast, frantic, fun.
Moving Target: Have someone slowly push the stroller across the court while players aim. Good luck with that.
Why Guests Love It
- It’s familiar enough to understand quickly, but silly enough to feel brand new.
- You don’t need skill just a willingness to chase rogue ping pong balls around the room.
- It gets people out of their chairs and into full baby-shower-game mode without feeling awkward.
- Watching grown adults argue over whether a ball ‘definitely bounced in’ is comedy gold.
- You get to say things like ‘Nice stroller shot!’ or ‘Did that land in a diaper?’ which is strangely satisfying.
Conclusion
Pram Pong brings the perfect amount of party chaos to a baby shower. It’s just structured enough to feel like a game, and just goofy enough to make everyone relax and laugh.
Whether people get competitive or just enjoy the spectacle, it’s always a hit (sometimes literally).
So grab some ping pong balls, roll out the pram, and prepare for one of the weirdest, most entertaining baby shower games on wheels.
