Party Favors or Loot Bags
Loot bags seem like a waste of money to me. Often they are full of sugar candy and plastic items that break quickly. It all just ends up in the land fill. At none of our birthday parties in our house have we handed out loot bags as the children leave, but they rarely leave empty handed. At the Egyptian party, my daughter planned an archeological dig (with areas sectioned off in a grid over our sandbox). Each child had to dig up their own section to find discover the 'historical artifacts' (plastic jewels, necklace with Egyptian symbol, ...). Often one of the activities have the kids making some type of craft project that goes with the theme and becomes the item they can take home from the party. At a Star party, they decorated star shaped boxes to take home. At a Tea Party, the girls made name bracelets from beads as a party favor, and each took home a "glamour shot" of herself dressed up. Another favorite of ours was the beach party with the pirate theme. The kids were given a treasure map and had to follow it to find the pirate treasure (large bag of beach toys). Pirates share their treasure so the kids all played with the toys at the party and then got to take them home. Creating the treasure map was easy and it was the most involved thing I had to do to create that party! My kids have received some interesting things at the parties they go to. My son was 3y when he was invited on a tour of the local fire station and got a plastic fireman's hat to bring home.
So it really is up to you. Do you want to send home loot bags after the party? Or do you want to plan a party activity that creates a keepsake from the party? Or do you want the kids to have a great time and the party and take home a fabulous memory? Time to talk to your birthday child and get his or her ideas.
