What you having for childrens favors ? Activity packs ?

Tesco do a very cheap range of toys for party bags. great for keeping the little ones quiet! Colouring books and crayons are always a winner.

Mini smarties, mini pot of bubbles, crayons, colouring sheets of favourite characters (printed from Internet), princess wands for girls (Tesco party multipack), dominoes (to use as building blocks -came with a pack of cards too -from poundshop) and a soft toy and set of mini board books for a baby. Bubbles were fab for entertainment. In the evening we had inflatable guitars etc, which the kids loved playing with the morning after!

Dont put in anything noisy or potentially messy!

All of the above plus top trump cards and battleship games for the older boys, snap card games and little Lego packs for the younger kids.

All I can say is.... good luck

Handy post !

We have 10 kids attending, 7 of them are aged 8-14 yrs old and we've decided on disposable camera for I spy for them, but still need to come up with something for the 3 little ones aged 2-4 yrs.

I like the idea of a little activity pack with a few different things in it since they never really play with one thing for too long. So I'll have a look in tesco.

I dont think that you need as much as you may think.

Kids don't need a lot, they are experts at making up their own games and entertainment (playing)

Somtimes I see at a wedding a whole room full of stuff for the kids and its empty, where are they ?,----- running about outside.

Hello

We are having some colouring books and crayons for the kids, my FMIL is sorting that so not 100% sure. For the kids favours they are having these sweets, think they will be really good they are edible lego bricks! And are pretty cheap!

I like them, but doesn’t this send the wrong message to a child? Edible lego? 😄

We have four children - so on the upside, at least yours can play together, which should keep them amused!

We have made activity packs for each of ours, with colouring pencils, colouring books, sudoku books (M's family are all geniuses....I've given mine Ben 10 puzzles!), an activity booklet that we put together with wordsearches, quizzes and a list of photographs to take as well as a disposable camera for them to use to take the pictures with. I think I will also chuck in a gingerbread man or something just in case they need a snack at any point.

I have also got each of them a rubber and a pencil sharpener as I don't want my carefully constructed 'distractions' to be scuppered five minutes in by a snapped lead!

All the children at our wedding have a personalised goodie bag dependant on their likes. But as a general rule books, colouring books, crayons/pencils, dolls, stickers, cards, dinosaurs, bracelet kits, cars, spinning tops, travel games, rattles and bibs for the babies, sweets and I can't remember what else!

Remember to ask the venue to set aside a table for them to play on
