Non-tat, non-plastic party bag item ideas

A little way off DC's birthday but trying to plan ahead.
I need ideas of things to put into party bags for 8-9 year olds. The theme of the party is rainforest/sloths. Max spend is £5 per bag contents.

Books instead of party bags.

I only put sweets, chocolate, notepad and pen\pencil and slice of birthday cake in party bags. The notepad and pen could be themed - look on ebay.

I've included plastic mugs before now, so it's more substantial, then put a few sweets inside it.

i would give out a book, and a slice of cake. you could find books to do with the theme. That way you aren't giving out tat and it will most likely actually be used

Is it before Christmas? I gave selection boxes once that went down very well

Eco things, so a sloth face cloth and shaped mini bar of soap?

Pack of seeds?

Where's the sloth book, £3 on Amazon?

Piece of cake and some sweets?

Little mini plants (e. g. from Ikea).

Stack of books from the Book People, each child gets to pick one as they leave, plus a slice of cake and maybe some sloth stickers?

We've done a diy baking kit-cookie dry ingredients and couple of cookie cutters with printed recipe x

Thanks, some great ideas here.
I really like the idea of a mini baking kit. Wondering if you can get sloth-shaped cutters.Xmas Smile
