Pencils are the Perfect Return Gifts for Kids, So if You Need Ideas for Party Favors, Give Pencils! 10 Assorted Pencils and Pencil Sets That Can Make Your Kiddy Party a Hit with the Little Ones (2019)

Whether you like them or not, party favours are a big deal during any child’s birthday celebrations and are equally demanding, challenging and a big ask in terms of the creative planning involved! With all the chaos and stress of planning your kid’s birthday party, planning the party favours too is an extra ask that is easily overlooked most of the time. However, it cannot be ignored and hence shouldn’t be resorted to filling the goodies bag with junk items.

Amidst a whole plethora of things that can fill the bags to the brim, look for things that make for elements of fun for the little ones. For instance, a whoopee cushion which is like a wind blaster, a practical joke that the kids will enjoy playing a prank with, keeping them entertained and in splits for long! You’d also consider handing out gift cards for a small amount that could be used later at a local ice-cream parlour, an arcade or a toy store. Redefine the favours with a switch the usual variety of stickers, squirt toys, fidget spinners or whistles with the classic board games, mini Rubik's cubes, travel puxxles, yo-yo, silly putty or mood rings.

Books make for lovely keepsakes and can be a perfect match with a party theme as well. For instance, if you have a bounce house blow out the theme for your kid’s birthday, you can hand out copies of ‘Mr. Bounce’ or for a bowling-themed party, ‘Curious George goes Bowling’ would be ideal. You’d also offer a swap drive for favours, where the kids can bring their most loved books to the party and exchange it with other kids or give it to a book charity drive.

You’d also avoid cluttering your space with party favour bags, and instead think of a single item to give away which fits your theme, as a Lego set, a science kit, a Kite, an airplane/train kit, a pair of furry slippers for a slumber party or floats for a pool party. Better still, plan an arts & crafts project during your party and have the kids take home their creations as party favours. DIY photo frames, fairy wings, DIY silly slime, popsicle stick monsters, bookworm birthday boy/girl, a recipe attached to a cute cookie cutter or a rolling pin or some seeds to plant with portable fertilizer bags and other craft kits are some items you can think of as party favours.

When presented in beautiful and unique ways, party favours become all the more special and exciting for the kids. Think of some unique ways of presenting your goody bags with special packaging features like personalized ribbons, hang tags, stickers, favour bottles, baker’s twine, favour bags or boxes, favour tins, tokens and charms or personalized gift papers.
