Party Favor Ideas

Description

Kids love practically all types of party favors from little toys, stickers, candy and balloons. I love seeing the girls get excited over a tattoo sticker or a simple toy but I also love it when we get useful goody bag items. Below are some of the things we have given or received from kids birthday parties. You can tailor most of the items to any theme by creating your own stick on label or packaging it in theme favor bags.

Cool Party Favors

Bath Puppets

Bath puppets are fun and great for all ages. You can display them by putting them over water bottles to decorate your party too and have each child select one as a party favor.

Bath Sponges

These are great for young children and we found these cute ones at WalMart. Wrap in tissue and place in a favor bag or place in a clear cello bag and tie with ribbon matching your theme. You could add a cute soap for an additional favor. They also can be found Amazon.

Magic Towels

Magic towels that expand when they get wet. These are fun in the bath and you can find them in some of the popular themes like Cars, Sponge Bob, Spider Man, Dora and Diego.

Small Puzzles

Small puzzles for older children are a great filler especially if you have a larger favor container or bag to fill. You can buy some in bulk online or locally. Certain themes are easier to find to match the theme of your party. I've seen Disney Princess, Dora, and Hello Kitty puzzles.

Mini Notebooks

These come in all types of sizes and themes and are inexpensive. I always have a couple in my bag for the long wait in a restaurant or line. Add a cute pencil or pen and tie in a clear cello bag.
