What is a Diaper Raffle?
A diaper raffle is a baby shower raffle where guests bring in a pack of diapers for the new mom in exchange for a diaper raffle ticket. Guests are usually given the diaper raffle card in the baby shower invitations ahead of time.
During the baby shower or baby sprinkle, a raffle ticket is drawn to reveal the big winner. The winner gets a diaper raffle prize! This is a fun way for the new mom to stock up on packs of diapers (which is the whole point of a diaper raffle!).
Check out this guide on how to host a diaper raffle for a more in-depth look into hosting one.
How Many Diaper Raffle Prizes?
Usually, there is one lucky winner who receives the prize. However, if you have a larger guest list, you might want to consider 2-3 winners to win the diaper raffle prizes.
How Much Should a Baby Shower Raffle Prize Be Worth?
If you consider a pack of diapers costs, on average, $8-10 a pack, you’ll want to have a prize that is worth at least twice the amount. Here is a great list of top-rated diaper brands to consider bringing in exchange for a raffle ticket.
Diaper raffle prizes usually are worth at least $25-$50. However, some people choose to have a huge grand prize worth around $100.
We will cover diaper raffle prizes for all types of budgets in this guide.

- Gift Card to a restaurant
- Bottle of wine
- Candle

Experience Ideas
Give the lucky winner a fun experience as their prize!
12. Painting with a twist

13. Cooking class
Consider giving away a fun cooking class if you have any local spots that offer them.
14. Amusement Park tickets
Do you have an amusement park nearby? Consider a family pack of tickets. This would be a great idea for a summertime baby shower.

16. Night away at a B+B
Do you have any local spots that would make for a great getaway? Look into air b&b for a night get away at a bed and breakfast.

Monthly Box Subscriptions
Consider giving away a monthly subscription box! You can often purchase them in increments of 3 months, 6 months, or 12 months. If you purchase them all at once, rather than monthly, you can usually get a discount as well.
22. Self-care box
The TheraBox is one of my favorite subscription boxes to gift. It’s a self-care subscription box with awesome items for someone to pamper themselves and focus on their mental health. It comes beautifully packaged and is an impressive subscription box. You can give a three-month subscription for a discounted price directly on their website.
23. Meal Service
I personally would love to win a meal service monthly box, like Hello Fresh! The lucky winner would be able to choose the type of food they’d like to be sent and it comes with all the ingredients to make dinner.
24. Candle Box
Consider gifting your diaper raffle winner with a candle of the month club! They can enjoy a new scent each month.
Yearly Subscriptions
Yearly subscriptions are also an outside-the-box idea that I like. Sure, this could be a little more practical than a typical prize, but as adults, we like a practical gift, right?
25. Netflix
Gift a 6-month or year membership to Netflix! Even if someone already has an account, they can add it to their current membership.
26. Spotify
Spotify is an app where you can play almost any song you can think of without commercials. This could be a cool diaper raffle prize idea, but I’d think about who your overall guest list looks like to see if this would be a good fit.
27. Amazon Prime
An Amazon Prime membership would be another great idea. If the lucky winner already has a prime membership, they can wait until it expires to renew it, or they can exchange it for an Amazon gift card.
Tech Gadgets
Tech gadgets are always a great idea for a raffle prize. Here are a few favorites:
28. Echo devices
There are so many new and fun echo devices these days. Grab the latest one to raffle off at the baby shower.
29. Kindles
A Kindle is a great baby shower raffle prize, and there are a few models to choose from.
30. Smart TV
Okay, so this may be an outside-the-box idea, but this would be a great idea for a co-ed baby shower. Smart TVs aren’t as expensive as they used to be. Who wouldn’t want to win an extra TV for their home?
31. Headphones
Either Apple AirPods or Beats headphones would be a great diaper raffle prize idea.
Home + Professional Services
When I think of raffle prizes in general, I think about gift cards or vouchers to cool services. I think home services or other professional services would be a great diaper raffle prize idea.
32. House cleaning
Gift the lucky guest who wins the diaper raffle a gift card to a house cleaning service.
33. Professional Organizer
You can also find a professional organizer and give the lucky winner a voucher to their services. The winner could use it to organize a pantry, garage or basement. I would personally love to win something like this.
34. Landscaping Services
Grab a voucher for some basic landscaping services your guest could use during the springtime to help with mulching or weed whacking.
35. Lawn mowing
How about winning lawn mowing services for the month?
36. Snow plowing
If you live in a place with a lot of snow, you could raffle off snow plowing for a month or a season.
37. Photography Session
This is actually one of my FAVORITE ideas. Raffle off a photography session. The guest can use it for their own family, their grandkids, their parents, or whomever they’d like the capture a moment with.
Pampering
One of the most popular ideas for diaper raffle prizes are the ones that are for pampering. These also tend to be my personal favorite prizes to win.
38. Spa day
Gift the raffle winner a day at the space with a gift card for a local spot. If you have a lot of out of town guests, you can also grab them a spa gift card that will work with thousands of spas around the country.
39. Facial
You can even gift your guest with a specific spa service, like a facial. There are many options to choose from and most women would love to win this.
40. Massage
A massage is another great baby shower raffle prize idea! This is often an indulgence that we don’t spend our own money on, so this is a great idea for a prize to win.
41. Mani + Pedi
Send your winner off with a gift card to get a manicure and pedicure!
42. Wellness Center
Do you have any local wellness centers or businesses? There are places that offer cool services like infrared saunas, hymaliah salt rooms, and body floats. This would be a cool experience prize.
Gift Certificates
Gift cards are always an easy go-to for a diaper raffle prize. I would try to have the gift card worth at least $50.
43. Restaurant
If you have a lot of out-of-town guests coming to the baby shower, choose a popular chain restaurant. If not, a local spot is a great idea too.
44. Coffee SHOPS
A gift certificate to a local coffee shop, Starbucks, or Dunkin’ Donuts is a no-fail prize idea.
45. Amazon
Everyone loves an Amazon gift card, so this is a great idea for a raffle prize.
46. Target
You also can’t go wrong with a gift card to Target!
47. Visa Gift Card
Lastly, a Visa gift card is basically gifting money and is a safe go-to that anyone would enjoy.
Smaller Items
These items are less expensive items, but prize ideas that anyone would LOVE to win. These are perfect options if you’re planning a baby shower on a budget or if you want to choose more than one winner.
48. Luxury Candle
Big, luxury candles are always a great gift idea. Choose a candle that not only smells nice, but looks great as home decor.
49. Tumblers
Tumblers are huge right now. The most popular type of tumblers are from Starbucks, Yeti, or Stanley. Gift out the tumblers alone or package them will a gift card for coffee.
50. Bottles of Wine
Most people like a nice bottle of wine. Consider your guestlist to see if this would be a good prize option, and if so, you can’t go wrong.
51. Hanging Plant or Flowers
Consider giving away a beautiful hanging plant or flowers. You can go with a seasonal flower, like mums in the fall-time or go with a beautiful plant someone would love anytime of the year.
52. Baked Goods from Bakery
Do you have a local bakery that makes really good pies? I have a local bakery that makes amazing blueberry and cherry pie, and these pies cost almost $30. I think these would make fabulous baby shower prizes.
53. Gourmet Chocolate
Gourmet chocolate is also a great diaper raffle prize idea. Package it up beautifully and consider bundling a few options together.
54. Soft Throw Blanket
Find a soft, luxurious feeling throw blanket to give out as a baby shower prize. I always love receiving a good throw blanket, and I know most people do too. Consider bundling it with a nice candle for a hygge-inspired prize.
55. Fancy Kitchen Tools
Give out a set of nice kitchen tools and bundle it with a set of kitchen towels.
56. Nice Cutting board
I love a good wooden cutting board, and I think this is such a great prize idea. You could bundle it with a beautiful set of kitchen towels.
57. Essential Oil Diffuser
Essential oil diffusers are becoming very common these days, and there are so many beautiful options to choose from. You could also bundle them together with a few essential oil blends.
Fun Kitchen Items
The best type of gifts or prizes are the ones you’d love to have but wouldn’t necessarily want to spend your own money on. I’m talking about that cool-looking popcorn machine or that fancy touchscreen toaster. These would make perfect diaper raffle prizes!
58. Popcorn Machine
How fun would it be to whip out a popcorn machine before watching a family movie? This is a fun baby shower raffle prize to win for sure!
59. Air Fryer
An air fryer is all the rage right now, so why not pick up the latest model for a diaper raffle prize? You could include the receipt in case the prize winner already has one, and it can be exchanged for something else.
60. Fancy Toaster
I had to include this because I’ve been eying this new touchscreen toaster that looks so cool. I can’t bring myself to purchase one because do I really need a touchscreen toaster? Nope. But do I want a touchscreen toaster? Yes. I think it’d be a fun baby shower prize idea.
61. Cookware
Find a beautiful dutch oven or baking dish and bundle it together with an oven mitt. Most people would love to win something like this.
62. Charcuterie Board
Charcuterie boards are all the rage right now, and they come in so many beautiful options. They aren’t quite cheap, so I think anyone would LOVE to win something like this. You could even pair it with a charcuterie cookbook.
