If you don't want to give goody bags, then don't. Some kids will probably ask but who cares. Personally I think 11 is old for a huge birthday party, but that's just my opinion and obviously you feel differently. So likewise, to each his own when deciding whether to give goody bags.

I went to a shower once where instead of stupid favors they handed out little cards saying they had donated to a charity instead

No age is too young.

Your kid is eleven. If he wants to do goody bags, he should have to do them.
I think 11 is a little old

My 11 year old would be fine with no bag but would think it odd to get pencils and goldfish.

Heck, we didn't even do cake for his 11th birthday, he requested glazed donuts.

I skipped them for DD (11) this year. One girl asked about them. Oh well. I told DD she was too old for them.

My son has been going to a round of birthday parties in Bethesda -- goody bags still exist for 11-year-olds, mainly filled with crap candy.
I'm throwing a party for my son with a lot of guests and just don't want to do the crap candy goody bag thing. Any other ideas? I'd think this would stop by now.
