Zoom Shower Advice?
Hey all,
Setting up a Zoom shower at the end of September. Does anyone have any tips or tricks to help make sure it goes well? I'm kind of on my own with this.
Thanks in advance!

My coworker had one and I think the thing that made it successful was the use of games and breakout rooms, and constant conversation starters to keep people engaged with each other. She also had a friend orchestrating everything so she could focus on responding to questions, being comfortable, and opening gifts.

I went to one last March that I thought was great! They mailed out some printed game cards and had us mail some stuff back for the couple , the games were for everyone to participate in and had another friend kind of facilitating. It was 15 ish people and I still felt like everyone got to participate. They didnt open gifts which I felt actually helped the flow of it. I find opening gifts awkward in front of folks so I liked that aspect of it.

Plan some games, maybe do like taboo - I always play that game with my coworkers and it’s pretty fun. I could see a baby version be lots of fun. I personally wouldn’t just open gifts on a zoom call, my anxiety couldn’t handle that lol I’d also have some sort of “host” who got conversation and games and what not going.

My best advice is smaller is better. Try to limit the number of people you invite, Max I would recommend would be maybe 12-15?
