Planning guide
Office baby shower games for coworkers
A work baby shower has a hard stop, guests who don't all know each other, and a lower bar for what's appropriate. The games need to be quick, inclusive and fine to play in a conference room or on a call.

The short answer
For an office baby shower, pick one or two quick games that need no personal knowledge: baby trivia, a price guessing round or guess the baby weight. Keep it to 30 minutes, skip anything about the pregnancy itself, and run it on the meeting-room screen so remote coworkers can join.
Games that work at work
Coworkers may not know the parent's favorite food, so skip the personal quiz unless the team is close. Baby trivia, a price guess round and a nursery rhyme quiz need no inside knowledge.
