Adults need consolation prizes at baby showers now? *eyeroll*</p> <p>I agree with PP that one prize per game is fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-prizes-at-a-baby-shower#post-2807547 Sun, 04 Mar 2018 03:50:24 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2807547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’d do a prize per winner. There can only be one winner a game so in your case two prizes. The shower is not about the guests. Unless you already have the best every party favors picked out and purchased I’d skip that. </p> <p>@MamaCate: ooh I hadn’t thought about a tie though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-prizes-at-a-baby-shower#post-2807543 Sat, 03 Mar 2018 23:56:50 +0000 ALV91711 2807543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd do one prize per game. </p> <p>If everyone is getting favours, they don't all need to get a prize. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-prizes-at-a-baby-shower#post-2807537 Sat, 03 Mar 2018 22:36:01 +0000 crazydoglady 2807537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would always think one prize per game! So, I didn't vote. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-prizes-at-a-baby-shower#post-2807536 Sat, 03 Mar 2018 22:24:10 +0000 MamaCate 2807536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meadow: that seems totally excessive (one prize per guest) to me! I think that in general of showers I have been to or hosted we have done top 2-3 with maybe an extra for a tie. So maybe for 2 games 6 prizes total? </p> <p>I agree that if you are doing favors especially a prize for everyone seems unnecessary and complicated—how do you make sure everyone gets one if some people aren’t good at/interested in the games? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-prizes-at-a-baby-shower#post-2807521 Sat, 03 Mar 2018 20:47:07 +0000 raspberries 2807521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd probably do top 3 for each game - if you think there may be multiple winners (I feel like bingo sometimes has a key square and a few people will win as the same present is unwrapped) you can maybe do up to five.</p> <p>I don't know why you'd need to plan on having a prize for everyone at the party if you're also giving them favors?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-prizes-at-a-baby-shower#post-2807512 Sat, 03 Mar 2018 20:31:56 +0000 meadow 2807512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm helping with the "games" portion of a baby shower. There will be a favor for everyone attending. But I was trying to think about how many prizes there should be for the games. We are playing two games (one being bingo) that should have prizes. About 40 people invited to the shower - I am thinking 5 prizes per game. Someone IRL is telling me I should plan one prize per guest.</p> <p>Where does the HB community fall on this? </p>
