2. DIY some themed hot chocolate or hot cocoa bombs
These make amazing prizes or party favours and are super low cost and easy to make too! You can also get super creative making them and use different types of chocolate and decorate them to match your party theme.

3. Some Sneaker themed boxes with Sneaker shaped candy

4. Some mini movie night parcels
These are so much fun and super creative and enjoyable to make and put together! You could include some parcels of ready popped popcorn or some popcorn sachets, along with some different flavourings they can add, or a sachet of mini blue marshmallows for sweet popcorn, plus some pretzel sticks and mini pot of dip, along with some glow sticks for a fun touch!
5. DIY some slime or playdough kits for party favours
This is such a fun sensory gift idea for younger kids that is also low cost and easy to DIY! To make some playdough, you only need a few ingredients from your cupboard or pantry! We love this playdough tutorial here.
To make slime, you will need 100ml PVA white glue (children’s craft glue or CE marked glue), ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda gel food colouring,1 tsp contact lens cleaning solution and some glitter/beads/decorations. A small blob of shaving foam is optional but makes for extra fluffy slime!
1. Squeeze the glue into a mixing bowl (look for a bottle in a 100ml size if possible so you won’t have to measure it out). Add the bicarbonate of soda and mix well.
2. Add a drop or two of your chosen gel food colouring. Less colouring gives a pastel colour; the more you add, the brighter the colour. Mix until well incorporated.
3. Add the contact lens solution and mix. The slime will begin to form, going stringy before coming away clean from the bowl into a ball.
4. Once it has formed, take it out and knead it with your hands. It will be sticky at first but after about 30 seconds you’ll have a smooth and pliable ball. Add glitter at this point, if desired, and work in with your hands. Store in a pot with a lid.
Tip! For gloopier slime, try adding less than 1 tsp contact lens solution, mixing it in drop by drop until it just goes stringy and begins to come away from the bowl. Then knead.
6. DIY them some chocolate smash party favours
These make wonderful gifts and are a treat and activity all in one, that younger boys especially will love!

9. Some bags of candy bark
You can tailor it to match the theme of your party! Make some super cool candy bark/chocolate slab and add some edible glitter! This is super easy to make and requires no baking and all you will need is some cooking chocolate or melting chocolate (milk chocolate or white chocolate is fine) and some sweets or candy pieces.
You could even change the colour of your candy bark by melting down some white cooking chocolate and stirring in a few very small drops of oil based food colouring. All you need to then is pour in to a mold and decorate with all the cutest sweets and candy of choice, with a sprinkle of edible shimmer or glitter!
Then pop in the fridge to set and break in to pieces when cool, to arrange in a pretty bag and tie with a ribbon! There's so many ways to get creative with this and you could add a sprinkle of freeze dried raspberries or incorporate a swirl of melted milk chocolate to create a pretty pattern. Sprinkle in some jelly sweets and add some popping candy, a must have ingredient, to finish, before setting it to cool!
10. DIY some themed chocolate coated oreos
To make these, you could melt some batches of white cooking chocolate and mix in a tiny amount of oil based food colouring to each, before encasing them in chocolate in a special tray - layer some chocolate in each of the moulds before gently pressing an Oreo in to each, then carefully cover it with a little more chocolate until the Oreo is completely submerged, then smooth over the top and pop in the fridge to set, once each mould is filled.
You could alternate colours for a colourful selection or even create a cool ombre effect! Another method is to dip half your Oreo cookie in to the chocolate, then let it set and then do the same with the other half. Repeat with your desired number of oreos before whipping up another bowl of melted chocolate in a different colour and doing the same using that batch. You could ice and decorate them to match the theme of your party and guests will love!

11. DIY some Minecraft themed mug cake kits
DIY them a themed mug cake mix for them to make! This is such a fun and cute low cost - or no cost - party favour idea they will love! Mug cakes are the perfect easy comforting dessert they will be able to make on a whim. Create some mug cake mixes (minus the milk or wet ingredient) in different flavours and colours, themed after different mobs or realms in Minecraft, and place each one in its own airtight container or zip lock sachet.
Your recipient only needs to add the wet ingredient to the mixture and pop it in the microwave to create their mug cake! You could theme your mug cake kits to match the party theme - guests will love.
12. Make some edible excavation kits
A lot of fun for younger guests, make some edible excavation games as party favours using some chocolate cake crumbs for 'soil' along with some gummy worms or chocolate shells or fossils!
13. A Prime bottle candy gift ππ»

14. Gift them a bag of 'tears of my opponents'
This would be perfect for a gaming or sports themed party! Simply make some teardrop shaped sugar cookies and ice them to look like tears - you could even decorate them with edible lustre to make them sparkle - then arrange them in some gift bags and voila! You could attach a little tag reading 'tears of my competitors' or 'tears of my opponents', for your recipient to read.
