Fun Bridal Shower Game: Fun with Poems

Sometimes guests start yawning when it is time for the bride to open her gifts. Though the bride is excited some of the guests may feel bored. How can you prevent this from happening? Why by making them play a game of course which will keep everyone engrossed. One game which you can play while the bride is opening her gifts is fun with poems.

Write down one sentence about the bride in the form of poetry. It could be anything like the bride is like the red red rose or something suggestive like the bride is sleepy, she is dreaming of bed. Now ask the bride to start opening her presents. Meanwhile make the guests sit in a circle.

Now pass the paper and pencil and ask one person to write down the next line of the poem. State that the guests should not be alarmed that their poetry need not have rhyme or rhythm. After the first guest has added her line she passes it on to the next person who adds another line. The paper is then passed on to the third person who adds yet another line. Each guest is expected to contribute a line and help compose the poem on the bride. The game goes on until each guest has her turn. Some sentences may be sentimental, some romantic, a few naughty and some droll. When everyone has taken their turn collect the paper and read it out aloud. Most guests collapse with laughter.
