Hi Ladies, I am planning my daugther's 2nd birthday party. We are planning to bring all the kids to a "Paint Your Own Pottery" center and then to a restaurant for Pizza and Cupcakes. I have children ranging in age from 1 - 13 and about 28 kids in total. I am trying to find a small favor to give each child. They will be getting their pottery piece to keep once I get them back from being finished by the center, but I also want them to have a favor that day. Any thoughts?!!? TIA
Re: Birthday Party Favor?
I think these are so adorable and easy to make as well.

Paint Brush Pretzel Rods:
Wrap up 2-3 of them in a cellophane bag with a thank you tag and have a basket of them at the door ready to hand out to kids as they leave. Actually...I would give it to them as they leave the restaurant so they don't melt them by holding on to them / handling till the end of the party.
Using colored candy melts will be your best bet so you don't have to mess with food gels and bark. I think it would be cute to do bold primary colors.
Another cute idea is to put a 100% Juice Capri Sun and a Rainbow Goldfish or Annie's Rainbow Bunnies snack pack (Target has them in their Easter section right now) in a cello bag together with a tag that says: Hope this helps to replenish your Creative Juices! Thanks for coming...
