Baby Care Relay
Required: Baby dolls, baby clothes, diapers, powder, small tub or dish pan, peanut butter, water and towel
Players: Small to medium groups
Try to come up with life size baby dolls to play this game. Each team will have close to the same size baby and the same items to dress their baby. Items to dress the baby for each team might be booties, t-shirt, diapers, a bonnet or cap and one-piece outfit. To add some excitement you can even put a scoop of peanut butter in each diaper and make sure each team has several diapers for diaper changes. You could even throw in a few diapers with pea soup for an added surprise. To start the game, have the babies dressed and across the room on a table. The first person on each team will undress baby, if the baby had a bowel movement remove with a diaper wipe and place baby in the tub. They return to the team and the next person will dry off baby, power and diaper bottom, dress baby and pat once on bottom to ensure the BM (bowel movement) connects to baby. The next person will remove clothes; wipe bottom and place in tub. The first team to finish rotation will be the winners.
This game is a great youth group game, great game for a child development class and for a baby shower. Discuss the do’s and don’ts about taking care of a baby after this game. One of them is never leave a child alone in a tub and baby powder is not used by many parents because it’s not good for babies to inhale.
