Christmas Party Goody Bags.

Ah! It's officially the Christmas Season. :)

I believe my family is having another Christmas party, similar to the Halloween one. I've seen quite a few products in Wal*Mart that would make great gifts for goody bags. I thought I'd share them with you all, incase anyone is deciding to throw the kids a Christmas party!

Each of these were in packs [8, 12, ect.]. How many you buy all depends on how many kids are coming & how much you'd like to give them. Of course you want to give everyone the same amount!

- Pencils.
- Erasers.
- Stickers.

I added these ideas in myself.

- Candy Canes.
- Peppermints, depending on the age.
- Chocolate, maybe like those big chocolate Santa lollipops.
- The candy sets you can find at any grocery stores. For example, a toy with candy inside.
- Cards. You could buy a box of assorted cards. Maybe there are even mini-cards (similar to what kids would hand out for Valentine's Day). You can also make your own.

There are always those big stocking with candy in them, I've seen them around, Wal*Mart included.

Of course, all candy would depend on the child & age.

For the goody bags themselves, you could always buy a pack. There are also those decorative ziplock bags, those could definitely work wonders. Or even a pack (or a few) of mini-gift bags.

You could always make them. For instance, get a paper bag & decorate it. You could use:

- Wrapping paper.
- Ribbons & bows.
- Gift tags.

Anything like that. Regardless, the kids will love them! You could even let them make their own goody bags, then you can fill them before they leave. Maybe have the bags already in a ziplock to just put into the goody bags that the children make. This would also make a great arts & craft idea. Of course, I'll eventually be giving ideas for Christmas arts & crafts!

Until then, enjoy the holiday season!
