Noisemakers and party hats can serve as part of the party favor "bag."
Once your child and his friends have thoroughly enjoyed themselves at his birthday celebration, you'll want to send the kids home with small reminders of this special day. Party favor bags give you the opportunity to present the young guests with several treats that fit the theme of the birthday party you've organized. Does this Spark an idea?
Color-Coordinated Favors
Put together a party favor bag filled with items in your daughter's favorite colors. If you are hosting a pastel-colored princess birthday party for her, select light green paper bags for the favors, and include treats like a mini cupcake iced in pastel purple, a light pink plastic charm bracelet, and small bottles of lip gloss and nail polish in soft shades inside. Fill a cherry red favor bag with a mini coloring book that features race cars, a set of miniature markers, and a bright red toy car to present to guests as they leave your son's red race car-themed birthday party.
Age-Specific Gift Bag
Fill the birthday favor bag with the amount of treats that matches your little boy's age. If he's turning four, include a mini basketball, a set of wrist bands, and a lollipop that matches the party's decor colors, like orange or purple to make up the four-item favor for his birthday event. Stuff the tea-party themed favor bags for your daughter's party with mini tea cups filled with mints, three shortbread cookies, and a headband adorned with a flower to give guests five trinkets to remember her birthday by.
"Favorite Things" Gift Bag
A favor gift bag of some of your daughter's favorite items makes for a personalized favor that is fitting regardless of the party theme. A cupcake in her favorite flavor, a CD featuring a few songs from the artist or band she likes best, and a gift card for a free dessert at the restaurant where she loves to eat make favors party-goers are sure to appreciate. Cards featuring stats from your son's favorite athletes, along with mini comic books conveying story lines from the characters he follows most often are impressive party favors to fill the bags with as well.
Initial Favor Bag
Present party guests with a favor bag that includes a few things that have the same initial as your child's first name. Fill paper favor bags with plastic colored sunglasses and iced sugar cookies if your little girl's name begins with S; give your son's guests mini robots and rock candy, since his name starts with R. It's a good idea to use stencils and cut out your child's initial from construction paper or fabric, then attach the letter to the outside of the gift bag with a stapler or hot glue to solidify the theme and provide additional decoration.
