The Party Animal wants to address a very common Question.

How much should I spend on Birthday Party Favors?

The answer to that question is this? The average amount you should spend on Birthday Party Favors is $1.00 - $5.00 per child.

There is really no need to spend any more than that. Parents have to keep in mind that Birthday Party Favors are just a small “Thank You” for coming to the party and not an expensive gift for each child. I do not know what happened, but parents tend to panic when it comes to this part of the party planning and always over spend and there is no need. With a little creativity it can be done and it can be done without candy and cheap useless toys. The Internet is a great place to get ideas and may I say so is this Blog. I love to be able to help other parents out with fun Budget Friendly Creative Ideas.

First follow my rule ♥”KISS”♥ : Keeping it Simple Saves - less is really more. Also think about what you would want your kids to come home with - do you want them to come from a party with a bag of Candy and Carnival Toys that just get lost? Probably not.

I have a Party Favor section here on my Blog take a look at some of my creative Ideas - they are easy, useful and will save you money. Keep checking back - I am always adding more on.

Of course there are those parents who spend more and I guess that is OK if your budget allows that, but most of ours does not.

The other thing I absolutely love is when your craft activity also becomes the Party Favor. Like with my Stuffable Plush Party Packages - it is two for one. So always keep that in mind as well.

One more Tip when buying Birthday Party Favors: Always look at clearance sales in the stores and buy things that come in multiples when you are able - for Example: A box of fruit snacks
