Couple of stupid party bag questions.

Ds's arent having a party this year, but ds2 is taking a few small party bags into school to give out to all his friends (and by small I mean a lolly, a colouring book, colouring pencils and a piece of birthday cake).

Stupid question 1. Is it acceptable to buy a big multi pack of colouring pencils and just put a couple in each bag or do I buy the small pencils so there is a pack in each bag??

Stupid question 2. Do I buy colouring pencil, crayons or felt tips???

Cant think of any more stupid questions at the moment but i'm sure I will later.

Any advice would be fab.
TIA

I would go with individual packs of crayons (felt tips - curse them!!)

The Works do colouring pencils for 25p a pack. Wilkinsons do dirt cheap felt-pens (75p or £1) a pack.

Also for colouring books - £1 each (for a decent book)

I'd go with wax crayons or pens tbh because pencils may be a bit tricky for the kids to use? (I don't know - I only speak as a parent who's DS has only just started holding his pencil well enough to get to see the colour at 5 yrs old)

I have got the colouring books, our local party shop does party bags sized ones for 10p, and have started buying some small packs of colouring pencils in morrisons for 19p a pack, have got the lollies to go in the bags so I just need the party bags and a cake for him to take in. His birthday isnt til may but I will hopefully have them done soon and wont have to worry about it.
