The Online Baby Prediction Game Your Whole Family Can Play
Write the questions, share one link, and let the family guess the date, the weight, and the name. You crown a winner the day the baby arrives.
How it works
Create
Start from a library of ready-made baby props covering arrival day, weight, hair, and names, or write your own.
Share
Text the link to the family group chat, or print the QR code for the shower table. No app or account needed.
Pick
Guests lock in their guesses in about a minute, from the shower or from three time zones away.
Grade
Mark the real answers when the baby arrives, and the whole family sees the new standings.
More than the due date
A paper baby pool asks for a date and a weight. Your board can ask about the hair, the name, or which relative loses it first in the hospital hallway.
The stats
Arrival day
The family
Props are multiple choice, so you can grade them without a judgment call. Ask for the weight in ranges, and save the exact date-and-time guess for your tiebreaker.
One game, two moments
At the shower
Put the QR code on the gift table and guests pick it up without any prodding. They fill out their picks between the games and the cake, and the parents get to hear the room argue about the due date.
On the big day
The family locked in their picks weeks ago, so your announcement text arrives with a scoreboard attached. Grade the answers once you are settled, and the group chat has something to celebrate besides the photos.
No app needed
Retire the printable baby pool sheet
Printed sheets work fine until the baby shows up and someone has to find the stack, read the handwriting, and add it all up.
The paper version
- Only the people in the room get to play.
- Someone has to keep the sheets safe for weeks.
- You score them by hand, during the least convenient week of your year.
- Half the guesses are illegible or unfinished.
Your Picksy board
- Anyone with the link plays, from anywhere.
- Picksy saves and locks each pick the moment someone submits it.
- You tap the right answers once and the standings update for everyone.
- No money changes hands. Players compete for points and bragging rights.
Why families like it
Distance stops mattering
Grandparents four states away play the same game as the aunts at the shower. One link is the whole setup.
Something to talk about for months
You get a running joke to carry from the shower to the delivery room, and the whole family has a stake in the announcement.
Nothing for the parents to do
Whoever is hosting the shower can run the whole thing. Grading takes a couple of minutes, whenever someone gets around to it.
Pricing for any size group
Most baby pools fit in the free tier. Invite the extended family and the group chat, and the next tier up covers 40 people for $15.
