Yes, we are talking about party favors. Party favors for a birthday party have to be really innovative and creative. If you are a creative and enthusiastic parent who is willing to spend enough time and energy in making the birthday party favors at home then here are some interesting homemade birthday party favor ideas for you…

Homemade Birthday Party Favor Idea # 1 Birthday Cookies

Delicious, home baked cookies are a great option for birthday party favors. Bake a fresh batch of yummiest cookies of any flavor you like – choco-chips, vanilla or even dry fruit and nut cookies might be a great idea. In order to make the cookies more interesting for the kids, you can draw interesting shapes or even cartoon figures on these cookies, or even bake cookies of different shapes like stars, bees, flowers and so on. Once your cookies are ready, you can make tiny paper boxes at home using a cardboard or a stiff paper. Decorate these boxes with interesting stickers, pictures and glitter. The kids would be more than thrilled to get an attractive looking box filled with yummiest of cookies while leaving the party.

Homemade Birthday Party Favor Idea # 2 Surprise Goodie Bag

In order to use this idea, first of all you need to create some paper bags at home. Use a bright colored paper to make the bag. You can make the handles by super-gluing a colored strands of thread or even wooden sticks for the bag. Now you need to think of various options to fill the goody bags. I recommend some homemade paper crafts like decorated cardboard coasters, paper flowers or photo frames. You can also create cute and tiny notepads by simply binding some papers, adding numbers to the pages and a uniform logo or picture using kids color stamps.

Homemade Birthday Party Favor Idea # 3 Superhero Capes and Eye-Masks

This is also a very interesting idea for homemade birthday party favors. All you need to do is buy some satin fabric. Cut it into short pieces to create superhero capes and create a pipe like pace at the ends through which you can pass a cord, which can be used to tie the cape. In case you are comfortable with creating embroidered patterns using a sewing machine or even with hand, then it would be a great idea to personalize the capes with the names of the children. In order to add the final superhero touch to these party favors, you can add a paper mask as well. Create the eye masks using colored papers and elastic threads. Kids wont stop prancing around in their capes after this birthday party for sure …
