Mother Goose: Passing On Nursery Rhymes to the Next Generation
When you are a hostess to a baby shower, you are going to have plenty of family and friends who will be attending. It’s up to you to choose a game that everyone can join in on. It may be difficult to do but it is necessary to the success of the baby shower. If you need a game, try the “Mother Goose” Game.
What is Mother Goose?
The Mother Goose game introduces fairy tales to the new mom while sharing traditions of childhood with everyone at the event.
How To Play Mother Goose
Look through Mother Goose nursery rhymes and pick different lines from the stories and write them down. When you write them down (you can also type them out) delete one word from the nursery rhymes you choose to go with. Give each guest a pencil and paper. As hostess, you will need to read them off, leaving off the one word. Guests will, then, need to choose which word is to be in the blank spot of the line.
Winning Mother Goose
The guest(s) who gets the most omitted words corrected will win. Be sure you have a door prize for your guest. If there is a tie, play a quick game to break it.
With this game, you are sharing favorite Mother Goose nursery rhymes with the next generation.
