Girls between the ages of 1 and 10 enjoy playing with and dressing up Barbie dolls. If your daughter has a love for Barbie, consider throwing her a Barbie-themed birthday party. After you organize the invitations, decorations and party menu, you need to purchase items to place in a loot bag for each of your daughter's friends. These bags are given out as a thank-you gift for coming to the party. Does this Spark an idea?
Pink Items
Since Barbie parties are usually thrown for little girls, anything pink would be a welcome addition to a Barbie loot bag. This can be anything from pink hair ribbons to a set of pink stationary. Younger children will enjoy a small tub of pink playdough, or modeling clay. Pink nail polish is appropriate for children who are a little older. Some other pink items that can be included in your loot bag are fake tattoos, spinning tops and pens with fluffy pink feathers on the top.
Jewelry
Barbies often come with accessories, such as jewelry. Toss a few pieces of play jewelry in each goody bag so that the girls can dress up like Barbie. Bracelets and necklaces with fake jewels make a nice addition to a Barbie loot bag. Plastic rings and silver tiara's can also be used. Clip-on earrings can be added to younger children's goody bags. Cheap pierced earrings can be substituted for older girls.
Barbie Brand
Parties that contain a Barbie theme are so popular that it is quite easy to find small items with Barbie on them to place in the goody bags. Barbie stickers, pencils, coloring pages and stampers can be purchased from either a department store, or a party supply store. In addition, you can buy a Barbie outfit or small accessory to toss in the loot bag for the girls to use on their own Barbies when they get home.
Candy
Candy is essential to any child's party loot bag. You can, however, choose candy that is more prone to the Barbie theme. Candy necklaces, for example, can be worn during the party, and then eaten afterward. Ring-pop rings can be placed on any finger while the child licks it like a lollipop. Pink pixy sticks work for younger children, while older children may prefer a roll of pink bubble gum tape.
