We've also included a list of our best selling videos, puppets, and toys which make great baby shower gifts.Educational baby videos make great baby shower gifts because you're giving the gift of learning. The new baby will enjoy videos in the Baby Einstein series. These videos and DVDs capture even the youngest baby's attention. Baby Mozart, Baby Bach, and Baby Beethoven are reported to calm 1-month old babies, making these titles excellent choices for baby shower gifts or a new baby gift!

Baby Shower Games
1. Clothes pin "baby" game - As each guest arrives at the baby shower they are given 4 clothes pins which they are to clip onto their shirt. They are warned that each time someone catches them saying "baby", they will have to give up a clothes pin to that person. At the end of the baby shower, the guest with the most clothes pins on their shirt wins.
2. The Q-tip game - A large jar is filled with cotton swabs and is passed around during the baby shower. Each guest will try to guess how many cotton swabs are in the jar. The guest with the closest answer wins.
3. Baby items memory game - A tray of approximately 25 baby items are assembled and presented to the group of baby shower guests to review for 1 minute. The tray is then taken away and each guest must write down as many of the baby items as they can remember. The guest with the most correct answers wins. Common baby items to include in the tray are diapers, diaper rash cream, rattles, pacifiers, nightlights, baby food, small cans of baby formula, baby lotion, baby oil, baby shampoo, baby nail clippers, baby hairbrush/comb, diaper pins, and baby booties.
