Birthday Bash: Favors Galore

It’s always a challenge to figure out what to put in the favor bags for my children’s birthday parties. From bunny bags to handmade felt maps from our Dora and Diego themed party I try to make each take home bag special. It’s the last impression from the party and hopefully something that both kids and parents alike will enjoy. Here are a few favor bags from my girls parties:

I love making special items to go into the bags myself, but I know not everyone wants to or has time to put the effort into that themselves. There are a few different avenues you can use if you want a great favor bag without all of the work.

• Find someone who loves creating favor bags. Maybe it’s a mom friend who lives for parties or an event planning service who employs or can give references for businesses who specialize in party favor bags.
• Select one-of-a kind items and personalized that will wow your guests and be useful to them too.

Fran from Mia Grace Designs has a passion for shopping and put together some fun favor bags made just for kiddos! The favor bags included toys, hair accessories {for the girls}, sidewalk chalk, kid appropriate snacks and more. Because she loves putting things together she’s the perfect resource. Mia Grace Designs was spawned from a desire to find great priced items and make them into gifts that people would love.

Speaking of boys and girls, not only can you personalize your Mabel’s Labels by gender, but you can choose from several designs and add each child’s name, that way they can go home with something that’s made specially for them. I notice that kids get very excited about labels and bag tags from Mabel’s Labels for that simple fact. We have two girls with names that are not in the Top 10 lists and find it very hard to get items with their names on it, so these are perfect gifts for children like ours. No matter their name your child will want to put these great labels everywhere! Plus the labels are dishwasher and microwave safe so they can go on anything.
