I know that goodie bags are falling out of favor, but as long as they don't have candy and are age appropriate, I like them! I'm trying to come up with something to give away for Zgirl's birthday party. I'm working with a limited (read=practically no) budget, so I'm looking for something I either have the materials for, or are inexpensive (no OTC, I don't have time to order)
Some ideas I've had include-
homemade finger paints (but I have nothing to put them in. I've seen them in baby food jars, but I don't know anyone who has any and I won't buy the food just for the jars)
homemade playdough (again, how do I present? I don't want to use Ziplocs)
melted crayons made into new ones in a mold (I'd have to buy a mold, because the only small one I have is skulls, and again, what to present them in?)
silly putty-this would be perfect if I had kept any of our Easter eggs around
Help? What have you made for goodie bags? What would you like to get? Would it be better to get nothing? It's a party for kids that are 3 and younger, and there will only be a few.

Big break!
So sorry for the huge break. We traveled to OH for the 4th of July weekend, which took a lot of prep work. After we returned, I spent my week going from urgent care to ER to doctor. I'm finally feeling better, but trying to get plenty of rest so I can fully recover.
I'm slowly working on Zgirl's birthday bunting, as well as planning what else to make for her party (a pinata, among other things)
While I'm off resting, here are some of my favorite links lately-
Baby sunsuit tutorial from Made by Rae
Feely balls filled with different materials (great for sensory play!) from Play Based Learning
Paper plate ring toss from A little learning for two
18 ideas for hand/footprints from Meet the Dubiens
Dragon wing tutorial from A Magical childhood
50 summer crafts from The Long Thread
And if you're on Pinterest, please add me and let me know, so I can add you back!
