I am planning a bedtime stories themed baby shower for my sister. I am trying to come up with prizes for the games that will relate to this theme (so either bedtime or books/reading). So far I have come up with slipper socks, a Border's gift card, pillow mist/linen spray, bedtime tea...any other creative and inexpensive prize ideas?
Re: Shower Game Prize Ideas Needed
sleep mask (walmart has them cheap)
book light (this will probably be at least 10)
book marks (very inexpensive)
magnification cards with a lite (pretty cheap maybe 4-5 dollars and good for tiny print)
I would also check out the bargain book section in borders/ barnes & noble and maybe get some clearance books on relaxation. Sometimes you will see really great deals.
Also lavender hand lotion (walmart has this) is nice and soothing...
I think major bookstore (Borders/Barnes&Noble) gift cards are the best idea to suit the theme. I know if I was at a shower and saw someone win a GC to a bookstore, and then I won a pillow spray or some tea, I'd be a little bummed. I would never use any of the other stuff you listed, so I'd feel it was a bit of a waste on the hostess' part.?
Someone else mentioned bookmarks. I think that's a good option as well (or possibly in conjunction with a GC). Maybe some nice metal ones, rather than the paper/fringe varieties. ?
