1st birthday favors??

My ds 1st bday party is a month away. We are doing a Elmo theme. I have already purchased pails and shovels now i have no clue what to put in them. Most of the children coming are also 1. Any ideas??

You should check out this store called Star Trek. It is in Farmingdale off of 110. It is a warehouse full of Oriental Trading type stuff sold in a dozen. For my DD's first I put in a set of mini maracas, a little ball, a mini monkey beach ball (her bday was monkey theme), a little rubber ducky and a thing of bubbles. all of these things came in a pack of 12.

I"d do bubbles and maybe a small water soaker ball like this:

Oriental Trading has them: LINK

They're age appropriate and fun for the summer.

You could also do snacks like individual goldfish or pretzel bags. (I would do goldfish b/c Elmo loves goldfish = Dorothy)

ETA: You can also do chocolate covered pretzel rods in red colored chocolate or with lots of red sprinkles.... HTH!

We did a cookie monster theme for DSs 1sy bday in june and for a favor we did a dark blue pail, a dark blue beach ball (oriental trading), sesame street stickers (on clearance at party city) and a cookie monster book from targets dollar bins. Check out target bc they may still have them.

I also had beach pails for DS's favor. I put in bubbles & a sand toy from the dollar store, and also a package of goldfish. We just went to a bday party today she had these adorable sippy cups with sesame street characters on them. I'm not sure where she got them though.

Re: 1st birthday favors??

I bought these wooden toys that are very similar to little people (which I know they have them in sesame street characters), and put cheerios in each since a 1yr old cannot have candy. For my DD 2nd we did a Sesame Street theme and from the $1 section in target I got cups, plates, socks, crayons and coloring books

Re: 1st birthday favors??

We went to a 2nd birthday party at the beach and the favor was a pail and shovel, with DS' name in black sharpie. Inside was a pair of sunglasses, three stickers, a small kite (cheesy at first look but cute and DS runs around with it Chat Icon ) and a package of fish crackers. I do believe all of the things were from Oriental trading. It was quite cute.
