At most birthday parties, especially for younger children, goody bags or loot bags can help to keep guests happy through the gift opening process. Teens and older children also appreciate a well thought-out set of gifts. There are many creative ways to fill a loot bag for the teen and child guests at your party. - Give your little princess party-goers something to make them feel like royalty. Fill a velveteen drawstring bag for each girl with fancy play jewelry such as sparkly necklaces, rings, bracelets and barrettes. Include a child-safe perfume or makeup item. Glittery lip balm is usually safe for children. Check the labels, and shop in the children's section to ensure you are purchasing child-friendly items. Throw in some loose rhinestones for a keepsake.
- Fuel the imaginations of little magicians at your party with magic bags to take home with them after the party. This works especially well when there is a magic theme to the party or if a magician is hired to entertain. Decorate blue gift bags with stars and fill them with mini-wands, decks of cards and little novelty magic tricks from toy stores. There are many small and inexpensive magic tools that can be purchased at party supply stores, such as the disappearing coin trick or finger cuffs.
- Give teens a little something to take home with them or to use at the party. Fill gift bags with disposable cameras for use at the party; guests can keep a record of the party from their own points of view and share pictures with each other later on. Include personalized notebooks for school or pencils and pens. Include a CD of a current and popular artist that the group of teens often listen to.
