Raise your hand if you’ve been to a baby shower and played games that you’ve played at a million others. Yep, we all have. But this Children’s Book Emoji Pictionary is a fun, new shower game that is sure to be a hit and a little different than all the ones you’ve played before!
Emoji Pictionary games have been around for a little while now, but they’re still new enough that most people haven’t played one. This Children’s Book theme makes people think (but not too hard) and everyone always loves it!
The idea behind this game is that the emojis are hints to the title of a children’s book. There are 25 book titles in total that need to be filled in and most of them are classics that people of all ages should be able to figure out!
The person who has the highest number of correct titles once the time is up wins! Don’t forget to give them a prize – we love homemade sugar scrubs, lip balm, and wine as gift ideas!
I made this FREE baby shower printable for my own shower a few weeks ago and thought you guys might enjoy playing it too! I’ve included a few helpful notes about that game and then you can scroll down to the bottom of the post to get the came itself!
Tips For Playing:
Have everyone start with their game sheet face down. This gives everyone a fair chance to compete!
Don’t forget the pens!
Time the game. This one might really depend on your audience, but I think 3 minutes is a good time for this game. With 5 minutes almost everyone will have filled out the sheet.
Have fun! Because that’s the important part!
Things To Know About This Game:
It was designed to be printed on 8.5×11-inch sheets of paper.
It’s best when printed in color due to the small images.
The printable game sheet and answer key are two separate files, so make sure you get both, I did it this way so it was easier to print multiples of the game and just one of the answer key.

This happens to me on my computer that isn’t attached to my printer – so instead of printing it wants to save it as a new PDF. I would double check to make sure your printer is connected.

I wanted to say that i figured it out, thank you for the amazing games!

I can not seem to get it to print, I downloaded it and saved it to a document file. Every time I click print it opens up a new tab to save in a file, i click save and give it a name, then it goes back to the print page, but still wont print, just keeps opening up a page to save.

Hi Melody, can you email me a screenshot of your print button? Is your printer just having a hard time receiving it from the computer or are you not able to find the printable game?
Melody Morris says
I cannot get the print button to work! This looks like a great game but sadly..not working
Tina says

Recently played emoji game at baby shower and it was super fun. We could not agree on one of the answers – its the clue above Rainbow Fish. Cannot find the answer sheet so would appreciate if someone could let me know the correct answer. There’s no money on it; only pride!! Thanks

Try it now. I’m not sure what the issue is as I can access both. I will have my tech developer look at it tomorrow.
Diann says
I can get to the answer key, but receive an error message when attempting to print it or download it. The error indicates page isn’t redirecting when connecting to the doc. Thanks.

Hi Mallory, So sorry about that. We’ve been making some technical changes and it looks like the code in the post was broken. All fixed now! Enjoy!
Mallory Taaffe says
The button does not work for me to get the answer key…Could you repost it please?

Hi Joyce,
It may not be a graphics card issue, this is just what I was able to find in my research. It’s also important that you download the file to your computer and not print directly from the link once it opens as this is just a preview. The game has been printed by over 10,000 people, unfortunately, there are some who have had issues and those are usually the ones who leave comments. So it’s not an issue with the file. There could be a compatibility issue between the file and certain computers but I can only test on what I have available to me.
Joyce says
After reading through all the comments, and seeing you gave the same answer about graphic cards in everyones pc I have to disagree. I too am having a problem printing the file and I have a very new pc. Soooo I am going to say this: I think something is wrong with the file. I downloaded it and it just wont print. Just my opinion and I apologize in advance but I seriously think its the file not everyones graphic card or the pc.
