I need some ideas for favors for a couple siblings who will be attending a birthday party (the 3-4 year old favors won't work for them). Something simple - any ideas??

Is there a party theme? What are the favors for the 3/4 year olds?

Pajama party theme - favors are slippers or pjs, but I can't get them in sizes big enough to accommodate the older sibs (and I found them on sale before I knew the sibs would be attending).

Hmm. Those are kind of cool favors. Boys or girls? For girls you could probably find some inexpensive nightgowns. Or Disney store PJ pals?

Someone (O_mom maybe?) said a while back that they did a decorate-your-own pillowcase craft at a party. If you could find some fabric markers (craft stores, and use a 40% off coupon if you can), and a few cheap pillow cases, maybe that would work? It is also unisex.

One of each - the complicating factor is that I have never met these kids and don't know sizes. I don't want them to feel left out, but I was hoping to do a simple (and not too pricey) bag (candy, book?) Maybe I should just try to find some pj's in bigger sizes - but Old Navy (for example) doesn't go above size 6 and I would think I'd need 8's??

what a great favor! I'll have to keep that in mind when I come across pjs on sale.

I like the pillowcase idea too.

thinking about bedtime routines, Michael's craft stores in their dollar section had clip on book night lights. I think they were under $5.00 that alone or with a book would be cool.
