Christmas fair ideas

dlb

Bottle stall and cake stall always go down well, raffle get emailing writing to everyone for prizes, last year we got tickets for the local panto, tescos,boots,sainsburys vouchers, signed local footy team ball and shirt, also got to local speciallist shops they tend to be good at giving out prizes.
The better the prize the more tickets you will sell!!

Face painting during school hours send letter home asking for £1.
We get local radio station to come down they give away loads of freebies and get people to saty longer!!

Summer fairs are my specaillity so if you need any help come summer just PM me !!
Good luck

We did name the teddy, how many sweets in the jar (sweets all individually wrapped) tombola, raffle with home made hampers, which were a baby products hamper, children's hamper, food hamper, Christmas food hamper, fruit hamper, sweets hamper and vouchers all donated items from just by asking and made up by our crafty people. All the hampers were boxes cut down and wrapped in Christmas paper and filled with shredded coloured paper of red & gold and tied in clear sellophane and curly coloured ribbon matching. We also had s cake stall with Christmas themed cakes, cookies, mince pies and the usual cup cakes, everyone had an amount to bake so we didn't have too much of one thing and it worked.
