Gender Reveal Games for Guests: 8 Easy Party Games (Free, In Person or Online)
A reveal is over in a minute, so games fill the wait. These eight work with 6 guests or 60, need almost no setup, and also work online for relatives who cannot be there.
Short answer: the best gender reveal games for guests are a pink-or-blue vote, guess the bump, baby trivia, who said it?, old baby photo match, bump-size string, name the baby and predict the weight. Each takes under 10 minutes. For guests who are not in the room, run the vote and trivia on a free online party and everyone sees the same result.
