Baby Shower Prizes and Favors

Are prizes and favors the same thing?

No. Favors are usually given to every guest while prizes are a little more expensive and are given to baby shower game winners of individual party games. Favors are usually valued at less than $5 each while prizes are often in the $5 to $20 range.

You will probably need both for your baby shower so we’ve included items that can be used as both prizes or favors in this list.

Gift Cards

Don’t be afraid to use gift cards as prizes for the winners of baby shower games. Giving gift cards ensures the recipient gets something they can use and they look cute tucked into a diaper-shaped cardholder.

Give gift cards on their own or pair them with any of the prize or gift basket ideas we shared above.
