3 year old boys party favors

[RuthT]

I am at a loss about what to put in the boys favor bags. I know what little girls love but am stumped.

Suggestions please - what has you 3 year old loved getting from the party bags?

Ds loved the ball he got recently, and he also loved the tattoos that came in one bag. Also, always a hit are "giggle sticks", which little boys love, but drive parents up the wall.

Sorry, cannot get onto other internet sites to show you what I mean - having problems with hotel wireless.

Bubbles, stickers, fancy straws, masks

I third bubbles!

And second toy cars (you can get big multipacks of cars pretty cheaply too).

Cars
Pencils and little notebooks
Bubbles

I personally hate and confiscated every one of those small mega bouncy balls we ever got.

I love doing party bags!

Asda have packs of 16 toy cars for £6 at the mo - have just bought them for party bags for 3 year olds as well!

What about those stretchy animals? And does anyone know where to get those balls that contain icky spiders and plat on surfaces?

i got a load of stuff for DS's party from a website called partyark

they had a great collection of "stuff"

I once gave out tubs of that fart putty stuff to 3 year olds.

God that went down well.

Aww they love the stunt glider things too RubySlippers....good prices too.

whoopee cushions go down well in our house, sweets, stickers and a ball

ruth - the party ark link has the stretchy dinosaurs

turkey - prices good, and delivery was quick

They love these stretchy men too and they're only 30p each

Yes boys love stickers just as much as girls, though obviously ones with dinosaur, cars and football on rather than dolphins and fairies. Though you can get away with smilie faces.

Trying to think of things not already mentioned...

Other things they love (which parents might not love) include whistles- you can get football shaped ones etc, harmonicas (elc have plastic ones but slightly more expensive), spinning tops and glow sticks.

Hawkin's Bazaar is good for cheap toys and gizmos. They have some stores and you can also buy online.

Ah - hadn't thought of Hawkins Bazaar
