HosT Kit
Everything you need to throw the most SPRRAD baby shower of all time.
Welcome, Host
You know things they don't.
This isn't a game guests read and play.
It's a show you run.
You hold the candy.
You hide the surprises.
You control the drama.
Your guests know one thing:
"We're playing a memory game."
You know everything else.
Read this manual. Then hide it.
What's Included
In the box:
— 1 foldable game board (17" × 11")
— 24 numbered cards
— 1 SPRRAD card
— 1 MYSTERY card
— 1 WILD card
— 1 main gift (unwrapped)
— 1 mystery gift (unwrapped)
— This manual
What you provide:
— The candy (list below)
— Gift wrap + ribbon for both gifts
— A little attitude
Before Guests Arrive—
1. Unfold the board.
Lay it flat where everyone can see.
2. Scatter the 24 numbered cards.
Face-up on the board. Scramble. That's the SPRRAD way.
3. Hide the 3 SPRRAD cards.
Tuck SPRRAD, MYSTERY, and WILD under any three numbered cards. Be sneaky.
4. Stash the candy.
Out of sight. Keep it secret.
5. Wrap both gifts.
Get cute with it. Set them near you, out of reach.
6. Pour a drink.
Let them in.
What to Tell Guests
Say this. Only this:
"SPRRAD is a memory game with a twist. Call out two numbers. I'll do the flipping. Find a match, and you win the candy that goes with the pair. Everyone plays, one turn at a time.
Keep it SPRRAD.
Bonus points for headbutts.
Extra credit for cheating.
Now go get the confectionery of your dreams.
[First player] — you're up."
Do not mention:
— What candy goes with what
— The SPRRAD cards
— The wrapped gifts
— This manual
How to Run the Game
Each turn:
1. Player calls two numbers.
2. You lift both cards.
3. Read both cards out loud — with drama.
"Number 7… EPIDURAL. Number 14… also EPIDURAL. MATCH!"
4. Matched? Hand over candy.
"For your epidural… LIFESAVERS."
5. SPRRAD card underneath?
See The Three SPRRAD Cards.
6. No match? Flip cards back.
7. After everyone's played once, loop back to player 1.
The show is yours.
Milk it.

The Three SPRRAD Cards
When a player matches AND a SPRRAD card is underneath, reveal with drama.
SPRRAD Card

Hand over the main gift.

MYSTERY Card
The Wrapped Surprise.
Hand over the mystery gift.
Stays sealed until end of game.
WILD Card
The Chaos Agent.
One-time STEAL power.
Use before game ends.
See The WILD Rules below.
The WILD Rules
The WILD holder can steal, ONCE, anytime before the final match.
They can steal:
— All candy from one player, OR
— The unopened mystery gift from whoever has it
They cannot:
— Steal the main gift (already opened)
— Steal twice
— Wait until after game ends
Not used = forfeited
How to call it:
Holder says "SPRRAD STEAL!" and names the target. You enforce the swap. No takebacks.
Host Tip:
If they hesitate, remind them once. Build suspense. Make everyone sweat.
End of Game
When all 24 cards are matched, the game ends.
1. Last call for WILD.
"Still got the WILD card? Last chance. Steal or forfeit?"
2. The mystery reveal.
Whoever holds the mystery gift opens it. Everyone watches.
3. Count the candy.
Most candy wins bragging rights.
4. Group photo.
Mom-to-be + the winners. Tag us.

5. You're done.
Refill your drink. You earned it.
Trouble Shooting
One player finds two SPRRAD cards?
Jackpot. Celebrate it.
Feelings hurt by a steal?
It's a party. Laugh it off. If truly upset, WILD holder can voluntarily unsteal.
Someone challenges a rule?
You're the host. You're the final word. Candy allocation, gift selection, and rule variations are entirely up to the host. (It's on the box for a reason.)
Can I play too?
No. You know where everything is. Next shower, let someone else host so you can play.
