Virtual Baby Shower Ice Breakers for a Fun Party

Whether or not you’ve hosted a virtual baby shower before, each party is different — you want it to be fun and you want it to keep guests engaged. 

So, you should avoid boredom at all costs for yourself, the guests, and the parents-to-be!

Making your event memorable is super simple, and this includes more than just playing games. Enjoy these virtual baby shower ice breakers that are sure to keep everyone entertained!

Choose a Party Theme

Choosing a theme can liven up your event, and keep it colorful and feeling like a huge celebration. The wonderful thing about themes is they can tie everything together — from the invites to the prizes to the decor — and can even be part of the games you play.

WBS has ready-made designs at the ready — including over 80 different themes — to help you celebrate your party in style.

You can easily add a themed background to your virtual baby shower website for instant decoration. All of your guests will appreciate the thought and effort of a theme!

Break Up Your Guest List

While it can seem more manageable, hosting a massive party for everyone you want to invite all in just a few hours can actually be a recipe for exhaustion and complications.

Instead, break up your guest list into comfortable, small groups of people that get along and relate to one another.

An extensive guest list can make it hard to play games and stay organized, so smaller events are the way to go. Since your guests will want to interact and talk to each other, keeping groups small makes everything less intimidating and more fun for them.

As for you, the host, you get the added benefit of not feeling overwhelmed by a big party!

Throw Multiple Short Events Over More Time

Want the easiest way to host an event? Keep it short and straightforward, separating different groups of guests into different time slots. Then, plan and spread all your short events to take place over one day or over a few weeks or so.

You can use the same themes, foods, and virtual baby shower ice breaker games for all the events if you want — or you can change it up for something different each time, to better suit each group or to make it more fun for you and the parents-to-be.

You know what your guests will like the most, so it’s up to you!

Deciding on a longer time frame for your short events is a great help to prevent fatigue or feelings of being overwhelmed.

Keep each event to a few hours or less if you want, or allow for more extended parties and have a few over several days or weeks.

This game works well for Zoom baby showers or for any type of virtual party. Ask your guests to give their best guess for various predictions about the baby, including things like date of birth, how tall they’ll be, and how much they’ll weigh!

You can even do mail-in predictions or emails if that suits your event better. And don’t forget the prizes for the winners!

Pick out fun songs that include the word “baby” and ask guests to hum the tunes while others have to figure out what song it is. It’s a fun game for co-workers and groups of friends around the same age, and works great as one of your Zoom baby shower ice breakers!

5. Celebrity Parent Charades

Ask guests to figure out which celebrity is being discussed. Each guest gets a celebrity’s name and to win must get others to state the celebrity’s child’s name. This game can be played in tons of different ways, such as by answering questions like the celebrity would.

It’s a really fun virtual baby shower ice breaker that can liven up any party!

Virtual Baby Shower Ice Breakers Can Save the Day

If you want people to start having a good time as soon as they join your party, ice breaker questions or fun games are the perfect thing.

Games in particular relieve the social pressure of people needing to chat too much when they’re still getting used to the party environment. Instead, they can get right into a fun activity that will have them laughing and interacting with each other quickly!

Use a couple of ice breaker games at the beginning of your virtual baby shower, and then give the guests a chance to chat and say hello to the parents-to-be.

By the time the games finish, your guests will probably have learned each other’s names and will be excited about the rest of the event. Virtual baby shower ice breakers keep the excitement levels high and get everyone ready to party!
