| I gave away those Stage 1 "I Can Read" books at my son's recent 4th bday party. Bought a bunch from Amazon.com for $3.99 each. Bought some princess books and superhero books and let the kids pick. They were a big hit. |

I wrote an entire post on this called <a href="http://www.financialrx.com/budget-party-planning/article/save-on-kids-parties-skip-the-goodie-bag">Save on Kids' Parties: Skip the Goodie Bag</a> after giving away ONE hula hoop to each kid at my daughter's 4th birthday party!
Each hula hoop cost me $1.00. The kids loved them, two parents pulled me aside to thank me for not handing out "a bag of crap" and I saved a bundle. Skip the goodie bags! You can, you really can! |

A small packet of seeds W/ a little flower pot? (Kids could decorate the pot at the party.
A goldfish in a bag filled with water? (That may be a little much, but could be good.) Playdough w/ a cookie cutter. I like the balloon/mask/book ideas. Has anyone said bubbles yet? |
| Hit a 5 Below and pick up some cute tees for cheap. |
| Where's the party or what's the theme? |
| No play dough!! Every parent I know hates getting that stuff in the bag. Stinks, gets all over everything, ugh! I get annoyed thinking about it. |
| $1 bill with a note saying to do something good with it for a stranger. |
HA HA HA!!! This is great, thanks for the laugh. Oh, and the goldfish...that's terrific, let's dredge that up again. What a great idea, giving a LIVE ANIMAL to a 4 year old! |
Please NO on the goldfish!! Not a good idea at all. |
Great idea!! I would love to get this instead of a goody bag. |
