How to Play Baby Shower Jeopardy
If you are familiar with the popular Jeopardy game, then you know usually there is a physical board with different categories that the contestants get to choose from.
Each category has answers attached to a different dollar amount. The questions get harder as the dollar amount increases.
On the TV show, contestants would buzz in and the first one with the correct answer would win and that amount would be added to their total.
But since a baby shower is usually a large group, the Jeopardy board is a printed out sheet that every guest from the bridal party to friends and family gets their chance to guess the answers.
Another fun component of Jeopardy is that the answers are in the form of a question. So under each category, there are five different answers and the object of the game is to correctly answer “What is or Who is”.
The categories are all baby related since it’s a baby shower Jeopardy game! Guests will have to know trivia about nursery rhymes, pregnancy facts, baby items and supplies, baby movies, and baby facts based on the United States.
When you are ready to start the party game (probably before the baby gifts), hand out a game sheet and pencil or pen to each baby shower guest. Set a timer for 3-4 minutes and instruct everyone to answer as many baby shower jeopardy questions as possible. They will most likely not get through all the baby shower questions, some of them are hard!
The ones who are competitive about winning prizes will have different ways of maximizing points in the baby Jeopardy game. They might start at the bottom to increase their chances of winning the most points since the easy questions will be at the top!
If you want to get creative, highlight a box or two as a daily double or double jeopardy questions or add a final jeopardy question that you make up specifically about the expectant mother or newborn baby (think baby names, mom-to-be cravings, or something about the couple).
After the timer goes off, have everyone write a dollar amount on the back of the paper that they want to wager and then read off the question aloud. They will just write the answer on the back too!
Then read the answer aloud and everyone will grade their own game. At the end, they will add up the point value for each right answer in each column and then write the total points at the top.
The guest with the highest score (not the most correct answers) wins a baby shower prize! You might want to have a random tie-breaker question ready, just in case two guests get the same amount of points. You can find all sorts of baby jeopardy questions online about baby animals or baby food!
If you have a really big group of people, a fun way to play the game is by dividing the baby shower guests up into teams of 2 or 3. They will work together in various groups to answer the trivia questions!
Then the team with the point amounts wins prize bags! Once you have these printed, make sure to check that the games are prepped items on the baby shower checklist printable!
If you want to go all out and make a large physical Jeopardy game board on poster board or foam board, check out this DIY Jeopardy tutorial here. Then you could go by regular Jeopardy rules and have the first team that buzzes in or rings a bell guess the answer!
