Invitations
A fun and delicious way of inviting your guests to an oriental-themed baby shower is to bake a fortune cookie, but instead of the usual good luck fortune, place your invitation inside the cookie.
In the invitation, inform your guests that they are to have at least one article of clothing that represents the orient (eg. Pictures of dragons is a great start, but wearing something in red and gold will do as well). This will definitely contribute in making your baby shower as oriental styled as possible.

Name your price (Individual/Group Activity)
Chinese people are known for their shrewdness when it comes to money. We think that this makes a perfect game for an oriental shower.
Buy different baby stuff, and make sure that you keep the receipt of each. Ask your players to guess the price of each one. The person with the most number of nearest guesses, wins the prize!
Make sure you have extra items at hand, just in case you need to break a tie or two.
Bargain Hunt, Baby Shower Style (Group Activity)
If you and your guest don’t mind going out in the middle of the party, this is another
fun way of celebrating this special-themed party!
This is best played by teams. Prepare a list of the baby items that will be “hunted” for by your guests. Set a budget and a time limit so as to ensure that it will only take as long as you plan the game to be. Ask your guests to buy as much of the items included in the list, within the budget you set, and the time limit. Instruct them to keep their purchase receipts, since this will be important for the judging.
The mother-to-be will get to judge on which group is considered the best bargain hunter of the bunch. Basis will be the price and the quality of what they bought.
When playing this game, you might want to prepare some maps of the area, especially if some of the guests are not from around the place.
Name Game (Individual Activity)
What’s a baby shower without any baby name game? However, since this is an oriental baby shower, we’re going to do it oriental style.
We have prepared some Chinese characters that are usually used for baby names, grouped by those frequently used as boy names and girl names.
Choose the characters that will be copied by your guests. Since they are going to use brush and ink instead of pen, we're pretty sure that this will be an interesting experience for them!
Ask them to copy the chosen words. After they finished, the mother-to-be will judge which among the guests could be mistaken for a chinese calligraphy expert.
