Pokemon Themed Party Favors for Kids

Are you planning a Pokemon themed party for your son or daughter? If so, you may want to take a look at my Pokemon party favor suggestions. Here they are:

Pokemon Drinkware

Based on my experience as a former party planner, Pokemon drinkware makes a great party favor. For starters, the cups and water bottles tend to be economical. You can pick up Pokemon Poke Ball Cups and other Pokemon drinkware items for less than $3 each. Second, the cups and water bottles tend to last awhile.

Pokemon Toys

If you want a Pokemon themed party favor that will be a big hit with the boys as well as the girls, I’d suggest that you consider purchasing inexpensive Pokemon toys. Options to consider are Pokemon Watches ($20 per pack), Pokemon Bouncing Balls ($5 per pack), Pokemon Key Chains and Pokemon Trading Cards. My kids were big fans of the key chains and trading cards.

Pokemon School Supplies

Pokemon school supplies were also popular with my children. One item definitely worth considering is the Pokemon Pencil Topper with built-in viewer. It looks cool and the kids can play with it after they are done with their school work. Pokemon Pencil Toppers tend to sell through select party supply and school supply stores for less than $3 a pack. Of course you could also go with Pokemon Notebooks, Pokemon Colored Pencils and Pokemon Pencil Cases too.

Pokemon Sweat Bands

Pokemon Sweat Bands are worth considering as well. My kids loved them. In my experience, you can purchase a package of Pokemon Sweat Bands through party supply shops for less than $3 each. I’d suggest that if your budget allows, you pair it with a Poke Ball or other Pokemon themed items.

Pokemon Paper Trucker Hats

Believe it or not, Pokemon Paper Trucker Hats also make wonderful and inexpensive party favors for kids. The hats are often available for purchase through party supply shops for less than $1 apiece. However, there are two downsides to purchasing the hats. First, you’ll need to assemble them. Second, if the kids play too rough with the hats, they could cause them to rip apart. Therefore, I’d recommend them for children 6 years of age or older.

Pokemon Edibles

When it comes to Pokemon edibles, you have quite a few options to choose from. For instance, there are companies that make a wide array of edible Pokemon themed items. Examples include Pokemon Fried Dough, Pokemon Marshmallow Pops, Pokemon Tube Top Candy, Pokemon Candy Fruit Mix and Pokemon Gummy Poke Balls. I’d suggest that you give strong consideration to the tube top candy because the kids can play with the container once the candy is gone.

If you are feeling crafty, you may also want to consider creating your own Pokemon treats. In order to make your own Pokemon edibles, you’ll need to invest in a Pokemon Cookie Cutter Set or a Pokemon Candy Mold. In my experience, both the cookie and candy molds may be purchased through confectionary supply shops for less than $5 each.
