Birthday party favors are almost as essential as the cake nowadays. It is almost expected at any birthday party.But with all that you have to worry about how do you get the favors together without busting the bank account or adding more stress than you can handle? It can be a very easy task.Listed below are some simple plans for favors that will add that special touch to your party.
Kids Party- Cowboy Themed
A simple way to make a party favor for this type of party is simple.You can find all of your items at your local discount store or dollar store. In order to do this favor all that you will need is enough small cowboy like belts for all of your guests. With these belts you can buy numerous plastic guns and badges and the boot spurs. Then all you will need to do is place all of the items together in each of their holders. You can also purchase the hats in bulk which will cost little to no money. The cost of these favors is approximately $4 or less depending on where you purchase your items.
Kids Party-Princess Theme
This favor is a easy as putting items into a small bag. This is one of pure choice. If you have a little girl that wants a princess birthday you can purchase a small purse,large enough to put a few prizes in. You can get things such as lip glosses and hair ties. Basically you can get things that a girl would need to be a princess. Such items as tiaras and necklaces are a good addition to any little girls collection. And these favors work out to be about $5 per child. This will depend on much you decide to put in each bag.
Kids Party- Sports Theme
As with many kids birthday parties they want something to take home with them. A sports party is no different. You can base the favors on whatever sport the child is interested in or you can make it a general sports theme with all the sports included.This can be done with simple sports bottles. Leave the bottle empty and on the inside you can fill them with the small inflatable balls and perhaps sport ball stickers and other small games like Ajax or marbles. These are just small games that the kids could play with indoors when they can’t go outside and play.
Kids Party- Fire Trucks/Fireman
This kind of party is not as hard as one would think. Firetrucks are an upcoming new rave. The more kids are made aware of all that firemen do,the more they find them to be their heroes and they want to be like them.So with this in mind how hard will it be to do party favors?The variety for party favors for this type of party is easier to find then most items. you can always find small firetrucks and other little trinkets to fill a goodie bag for the kids.You can use such items as the mini trucks andthe fire helmets.You can almost always find fire themed stickers and pencils. These may seem a little cheesy but remember to purchase these items based on the age group of the children attending.
Teens
When it comes to teen parties,things may get a little harder. Because kids are always changing their likes and dislikes. And as we know their taste is getting more and more expensive. I have found that the best gift favor or goody bag is to fund them with gift cards to their latest hangout spot. If they like to go shopping at the mall find a gift card to their favorite store. For example there are gift cards available for Old Navy,Bath and Body Works,Victoria Secret,etc. If this party is for the teen boys in your life you may also get them gift cards to their favorite sports shop if they are interested in sports. For teens, gift cards seem to be the easiest thing to do as a favor for them. This way they get to decide what they want.
Adults
This may be easier in some aspects and yet may be harder in the same.Adults tend to be more judgmental and harder to do party favors for.If doing a more laid back birthday party with a summer feel for the ladies you could try for a pamper gift bag. This could include such things as lotions and perfumes. You could also include bath bubbles and and bath salts and other items of the same group. If you decide to do something of a more upscale setting you could go as far as buying small pieces of jewelery for your closest friends that you would have at your party. Or if you are entertaining for a birthday you could minimize your costs by giving party favors to your guests as couples. By finding items that they may like as a couple,you may find that the costs will go down significantly.
As you know your party guests the best you should find it easier to do gifts based on their likes and dislikes. The best way to do part favors is to spend according to your finances. You don’t want to spend money on favors that will break the bank.The point of favors is exactly that favors. Small tokens of how much we appreciate that they are our friends and family. These are to show our love for those who are closest to us and those who mean the most in our lives.
