Since we had a range of kids from 2-10 we had to find a way to make the games fair for everyone.
So each childs "PRIZE" or favor bag was marked with a number of tickets required for "purchase"
The number of tickets was the child's age multiplied by 3...So if you were 2 you needed 6 tickets for your prize and if you were 10 you would need 30!
A simple roll of carnival tickets from Amazon Prime was just what we needed!
The Prizes:
