Virtual shower — share on a video call

3 methods
đź’»
Most common — Zoom

1. Zoom

  1. 1
    Open the game in your browser
    Pick a game on babyshowershow.com and tap Play. Keep the tab open.
  2. 2
    Start your Zoom meeting
    Host or join the call. Bring guests in before you share so nobody misses the intro.
  3. 3
    Click “Share Screen” → pick the browser tab
    Choose the babyshowershow.com tab (not the whole desktop) and enable “Share sound” so any effect sounds play for everyone.
💡 Zoom's tab share stays crisp even on slower connections — browser-based games don't stutter like shared video files do.
🟢
Google Meet

2. Google Meet

  1. 1
    Start or join the Meet call
    Open meet.google.com and start the session. Share the link with guests.
  2. 2
    Bottom bar → Present now → “A tab”
    Pick “A tab” option so guests only see the game, not your whole desktop. Select the babyshowershow.com tab.
  3. 3
    Go fullscreen on your side
    Hit the fullscreen button inside the game. Guests keep seeing the tab content but without your browser chrome.
đź’ˇ Meet's “A tab” mode auto-shares tab audio. If a game has sound effects, guests hear them too.
🟣
Microsoft Teams

3. Microsoft Teams

  1. 1
    Join your Teams meeting
    Desktop Teams works best — the browser version has more limited screen-share options.
  2. 2
    Share button → “Window” (not “Screen”)
    Pick your browser window showing babyshowershow.com. “Include sound” checkbox should be ON.
  3. 3
    Keep the game tab in focus
    Teams share is window-based — if you click to another tab, guests see that tab instead. Park the game in its own window.
đź’ˇ For office showers, Teams is usually mandatory. Schedule the meeting in Outlook for timezone-aware invites.

In-person shower — project on a TV

3 methods
🍎
iPhone / Mac → Apple TV

1. AirPlay

  1. 1
    Open the game on iPhone or Mac
    Pick a game on babyshowershow.com, tap Play, then hit the fullscreen icon.
  2. 2
    Swipe down → Screen Mirroring
    On iPhone: open Control Center, tap Screen Mirroring. On Mac: click the AirPlay icon in the menu bar.
  3. 3
    Pick your Apple TV
    Your TV name appears in the list. Tap it and the game projects on the TV within a second.
💡 Works with any AirPlay 2-compatible TV (most Samsung / LG / Sony 2019+ sets) — not just Apple TV boxes.
📺
Android or Chrome → Chromecast / Google TV

2. Chromecast

  1. 1
    Open the game in Chrome (desktop or Android)
    Pick a game on babyshowershow.com. Works in Chrome on any platform.
  2. 2
    Chrome menu → Cast…
    Three-dot menu in the top-right → Cast → pick your Chromecast or Google TV device. On Android, the same option is in the Chrome overflow.
  3. 3
    Set source to “Cast tab”
    Chrome will ask what to cast. Pick the tab (not the desktop) so you get a clean, full-quality stream.
💡 A Chromecast dongle is about 30 USD — pays for itself the first time you host.
🔌
Laptop → any TV with HDMI

3. HDMI cable

  1. 1
    Connect HDMI from laptop to TV
    Most laptops from 2015+ have an HDMI port. If yours only has USB-C, grab a USB-C → HDMI adapter.
  2. 2
    Switch TV input to HDMI
    Use the TV remote to cycle inputs until you see your laptop desktop. Usually HDMI 1, 2, or 3.
  3. 3
    Open the game and hit fullscreen
    Laptop screen mirrors to the TV. The fullscreen button in the game view removes the browser chrome automatically.
💡 Most reliable method. Recommended when you absolutely can't have a wireless hiccup — in-laws arriving at 2pm sharp kind of reliable.

Fallback — no TV, no video call

Just prop a laptop on a coffee table or pass a tablet around. All 20 games are responsive and work fine on a screen as small as a phone. For hybrid showers (some guests in person, some remote), pair any in-person method with any virtual method — you can run both at once.
