melissad2 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I think that all depends on the age of the children? Toddlers...get 4 Teenagers...get 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrothead Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I think two adults could share one and two more should cover the boys. They are little yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudoMom Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I would order 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn. Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I think you could get away with 4, but I voted 5. I would rather have too much than not enough, and besides, cold pizza the next day is yummy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenCat Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I think you could get away with 4, but I voted 5. I would rather have too much than not enough, and besides, cold pizza the next day is yummy! :iagree: 4 would probably cover it but I'd rather have leftovers than run short. Plus, you can increase the variety of choices with 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinder Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Let's see . . . 4 slices for the 11yo, 3 each for the rest of the boys (possibly only 2 for the 6yo), 2 each for the adults = 26 slices. So minimum 4 pizzas. Yeah, I tend to overestimate. But boys and pizza . . . in my personal experience you can't have too much pizza. Partly depends on how long they'll be together. Will you want extra in case they want to snack on leftovers? Then you should get 5. I'll vote 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FriedClams Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Little boys - 2 slices each - 12 Adults and 11 YO - 3 slices - 9 21 slices total - 3 pizzas at 24 slices so you'll have 3 extra I hate leftover pizza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Mousie Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 You can never have too much pizza. Really. It's a law of nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenmom5 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 what size are the pizza's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolly Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Unless they are toddlers, I always go with half a pizza apiece. I rarely have an entire pizza left. If teens, one half each plus two extra pizzas. I voted 5 for the ages you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngieW in Texas Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I would go with 5 pizzas. That will give you more variety in flavors. I would get two plain cheese and two pepperoni and then a good flavor for the last one, like meat lover's or veggie lover's or supreme. If you happen to know that a couple of the kids are more adventurous than plain cheese and pepperoni, then I'd do two specialty pizzas and do just one of either the cheese or the pepperoni. I'd rather have more than I needed than run out. Cold pizza the next day is wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
