Who can resist nuzzling the feet of newborn babies?
As a theme for a baby shower, Baby Feet is different,
fun, adorable and attention-getting. Add Baby Feet
sugar shapes to desserts, foot-shaped cookies for a great
party activity, only a few Toe & Foot games…
you are sure to gets lots of
oooooohs and aaaaaaahs!
Toe & Feet Party Games
Toes Pick Up
Scatter tooth picks or Scrabble Tiles on the floor. Each guest gets 3 turns.
After removing shoes and socks, the player uses her toes to pick up as many toothpicks or tiles and
hobbles over to drop them into a bowl or plate. After the third turn, the objects
are totaled up and the player who collected the most is the winner.
Toes, Spoons & Cotton Balls
While barefoot, each player, using her hands, scoops up a cotton ball from the floor onto a teaspoon. She places the teaspoon between her toes or clenches them with all her toes, walks to a bucket or plate and dumps just the cotton ball into it. Each player is timed and the player to scoop, toe clench, walk and drop cotton ball is the winner.
Toe Nail Painting
Provide a small bucket of warm water with river rocks on the bottom for each guests. (guests should not use each others foot bath for health reasons). Provide small sample bottles of fragrant lotions, such as vanilla, petunia, etc. These small bottles and small guest towels can be purchased at Dollar Stores or other discounted places and guests can take home the unused lotions. Guests can soak their feet, talk, perhapswatch a video. Everyone can dry their feet, rub in the lotion and use towel to dab off lotion from toe nails. Provide an array of nail polish so guests can select a color and paint their own toe nails or for those that want, they can paint each other's nails. If the budget can afford it, hire a pedicurist to provide foot massages and pedicures for the guests, what a treat!
