BabyShowerShow is 20 host-led baby shower games for one shared screen, and none of them need personal knowledge of the parent-to-be, so a new hire can play as well as a best friend. Each paid game lets you play 3 questions free, Emoji Pictionary is free in full, and $9.99 unlocks all 20 games for 30 days from purchase. No subscription.
Half the room barely knows the mom-to-be. The other half has never seen a baby up close. These games work for both — no personal trivia, no awkward measurements, just things everyone can play.
The full Emoji Pictionary game is free to play. Test before the shower.
Pick questions every invited guest has a fair chance to answer. New hires, contractors, and cross-team coworkers may not know personal stories about the parent-to-be. Emoji decoding, price guessing, broad trivia, and pop culture avoid that disadvantage. Check your own workplace policies and the guest of honor's preferences before choosing any activity. If you'd rather not pick games yourself, the baby shower game picker suggests a lineup for an office group from your headcount and time slot.
Picked for one rule: a brand-new coworker who joined the team last week should be able to fully play.
Fits: Anyone in the room
Zero personal knowledge required. New hires, contractors, and remote teammates all have equal footing — everyone can decode an emoji puzzle. The safest opener at any coworker shower.
Fits: Coed teams + non-parents
The non-parent vs. parent gap is the entire joke. Coworkers without kids guess wildly, parents in the room nod knowingly. Engages the room without singling out the mom.
Fits: Teams of 3-4
Pure general knowledge — baby animals, milestones, old wives' tales. Doesn't depend on knowing the mom-to-be at all. Splits naturally into teams of 3-4.
Fits: Multigenerational teams
Pop culture is the great equalizer across coworker generations. Bluey, Finding Nemo, Toy Story — answers land whether your team is 22 or 52.
A real puzzle from the actual game. Click to reveal — no setup, no signup.

Coworker showers run on relationship math. The closer the room is to the mom, the more personal the games can get.
Three game types that consistently get called out as the reason office showers feel awkward.
New hires and cross-team coworkers can't answer. They sit in silence while close friends rattle off answers.
"What was Sarah's first ultrasound date?" — only her partner and best friend know. Everyone else stares at the floor.
Awkward in a professional setting, and it puts the parent-to-be's body at the center of the game. Plenty of guests of honor would rather skip it anywhere, let alone at work.
Half the room forgets the rule, the other half gets annoyed enforcing it. Works only when everyone is friends.
Game fit table, practical dos and don'ts, a full hybrid/in-person playbook, and a 45-minute lunch-break script.
Read the full guide →Splitting coworkers into teams is the easiest way to mix people who don't usually work together. The scoreboard and timer that make that work are built into the game screen.
Set up 2 to 6 teams, rename them, and add or take away points as answers come in. Undo fixes a mis-tap, and Reveal winner calls the result at the end, ties included. Scores stay on the host's device.
Give each question 15, 30, 45, 60 or 90 seconds, or leave the timer off. Pause and reset are one tap, and the clock stops when you reveal the answer. You can also shorten any game to 5 or 10 questions.
Queue several games, jump between them, and pick up where you stopped. Progress is saved in the browser, so a refresh or a break between games doesn't lose your place.
No downloads, no printing, no account. Go from landing page to playing in under 60 seconds.
Choose from 20 games across 5 categories. The full Emoji Pictionary game is free to play — try before you buy.
Open fullscreen on a TV, laptop, tablet, or phone. Share your screen on Zoom, Meet, or Teams for virtual showers.
You control the pace. Show each question, let guests shout guesses, then click to reveal the answer with dramatic timing.
No subscription, no account, no auto-renewal.
Stick to general-knowledge formats: emoji pictionary, baby price is right, baby facts trivia, and pop-culture trivia. None of them require knowing the mom personally. Avoid "how well do you know [mom]?" quizzes, pregnancy-knowledge trivia, or anything requiring guesses about her life — new hires and cross-team coworkers will sit in silence.
Pick games where they have equal footing on round one. Emoji decoding, price guessing, and animal trivia don't depend on tenure or relationships. Skip games that reward how long someone has known the mom — those punish exactly the people you're trying to include.
Emoji pictionary is a useful opener because it requires no personal knowledge, and its early puzzles are intentionally straightforward. Use it as game one, then move to trivia or price guessing if those suit the group.
Three rules: keep it under 45 minutes total, run games where there's no "correct social answer" (no "guess the mom's favorite snack"), and let people opt out gracefully. Project the game on a TV or share on Teams — guests can engage at their own level instead of being forced into a circle.
They can be when participation is optional and the activities fit your workplace. Emoji decoding, broad trivia, and price guessing avoid personal questions and physical contact. Check your own workplace policies and ask the guest of honor what they are comfortable with.
A 30- to 45-minute plan can fit a lunch break; an after-work or weekend gathering can run longer. For a short event, choose two or three brief games and leave time for food, conversation, and gifts.
