There was beer for the guys and they included guy games to get them involved like who can change the doll's diaper the fastest, who can empty their baby bottle the fastest while drinking through the nipple, they poured different types of beer in a cup and you had to guess what type of beer was in the cup, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141518 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 23:48:52 +0000 BeachMama 141518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was co-ed but we didn't really play any games. There was a table set up where guests decorated bibs with paint and iron-ons. Some of the guys participated in that.</p> <p>Other co-ed showers I've been to had a game where guys raced to chug a baby bottle full of beer. It's pretty funny to watch. Another game was melting different types of chocolate candy bars in a diapers and having guests guess what they are. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141512 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 22:56:59 +0000 yoursilverlining 141512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My baby shower was coed. I have a lot of guy friends, and it would have been weird not to invite them. We didn't play any games though, just had a big brunch, chatted and opened gifts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141511 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 22:52:39 +0000 Grace 141511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been to one. It was basically the same as a normal one except that it was at night, there was alcohol and there were guys. It was actually really fun, because we played the game where you taste the baby food and try to guess what it was, and the guys got really into it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141458 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 19:52:47 +0000 MsMamaBear 141458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, none of the men I know would go to a baby shower.LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141446 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 19:08:46 +0000 Rubies 141446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine wasn't but we're going to one next weekend!

DH and husbands were invited to my baby shower. I was new to the area so ours was really small.. ~15 people. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141318 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 15:53:00 +0000 autumnlove 141318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My friend brought white scrapbook paper and art supplies.. She gave the people who wanted to participate a smaller piece of paper with a letter on it. They decorated the page with a word starting with the letter. I have i is for ice cream, a is for apple, x is for xylophone, etc.<br /> I had so much fun finishing the pages that weren't completed at my shower!<br /> Check your wall...I can send you pics! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141303 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 15:20:27 +0000 heffalump 141303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Tell me more about the ABC book activity! Sounds like fun. I'm ok if the boys don't participate in things like that, they can go talk about boy things while we do that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141293 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 14:56:31 +0000 autumnlove 141293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a coed shower thrown by my friends at a local restaurant and DH picked up the bar tab for beer and wine and it was a good time for everyone.<br /> As for games...my friends did a bingo game with gifts and a create a custom page for baby's first ABC book activity. Good times for the girls and kids but none of the guys really participated. They were too busy talking about sports, etc! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coed-baby-showers#post-141272 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 13:47:09 +0000 heffalump 141272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you have one? Have you been to one? My shower was coed and we had it at the minor league baseball stadium. But I'm throwing one for a friend and we're just going to do it at home. Any ideas for games? She's not very into the traditional baby shower games.... but I think it might be fun to have a couple of things going on other than talking, eating, and opening gifts. </p>
