    • How about using paper cups, some soil and seeds and get the children to decorate the cups with glitter, sequence, crayons etc and then plant the seeds and take them home?
    • The children could decorate frames (made out of coloured card) and you could print out photos of them at the party to put inside.
    • Buy cheap packs of white t-shirts (from Primark or the likes) and have the children decorate them with fabric paints (write their names etc).
    • A CD of childrens songs.

    1. Once we’ve been at the craft birthday party. Kids were decorating their own partybags, making snowballs, there were some other trinkets to decorate - do not remember exactly – maybe rings, keyrings... Apparently, you could buy stuff like that for decoration (clear plastic you paint or glue something on a card-paper and insert it inside, with snowballs – there is slot for a card and you put inside glitter of your choice).
    2. I was looking for a flashing glass as a present; the company I’ve got it from is doing some flashing party stuff for kids – crowns, magic wands, rings, straws (you know, for sipping juice). It looks like fun to put that to party bag.
