it's not about fun.
It's about accepting Jesus.

Best I can think of off the top of my head would be to have each of the participants write a message to the person being baptized, may be what baptism means to them personally or how it has affected them and place these messages in a book for later presentation (you didn't indicate whether this was an infant or not), or collect messages beforehand for them.

Would you please stop writing small "i" in the middle of a word written with capital letters? It drives me nuts.
When you say "baptism", you mean giving a name to a child in the name of God? Well, just through a party after everything is done. This is what we do in my country. Baptizing a child is something sacred, why do you want to make it...fun? You know, some things are meant to stay the way they are.

Flowers, candy, kool aid, pop, snacks, cake and ice cream and coffee all served on disposable ware for easy cleanup. Have a nice baptism.

I hope you are kidding. Baptism is an important joyous event but not one to make "fun". It is a time of consecration and dedication, a time of one's confession of faith and determination to forsake all and follow Jesus.
god bless

Just realize that baptism is a death, the old man must die, and the new man is to be raised.

I think the real question is why is "baptism" all in caps except for the i? And also in "ideas" and "bit"? Since you're apparently the "creative" (I mean, CREATiVE) type, you hardly need our suggestions, right?

Waterfight? Races in the pool? Diving competition?

Have each person being Baptized tell a bit about themselves!

Put that stuff in the water that turns purple if someone pees.
