Birthday Question
Rodney & Roman's birthday are only 1 day apart. Rodney will be turning 6 on 9/24 & Roman will be turning 1 on 9/26 so we are combining their birthday parties.

My question is this. We always buy those goodie bags for the children which contain those cheap little toys & some candy etc. This year me & my daughter would like to do something different, because with the goodie bags, the toys usually end up in a junk drawer. I know my kids usually play with them a day or so & then get tired of them quickly.

Does anybody have an idea of something else we can do. I was thinking about getting 2 items that cost more money. Something that they will cherish & won't end up in the junk drawer!!! The kids ages range from 1 to 12 (lol) & this makes it harder!

Thanks in advance...

I bought thank-you cards & put a picture of my kids & handed those out, it's not costly & something people will cherish & it saves you time by giving them the thank-you cards there..I'll try thinking of more.. I love doing sutff like this : )

For my older daughter Julia I bought white T-shirts at Dollar store and printed picture of the theme (Hannah Montana ofcourse)on T-Shirt Transfer paper and ironed it on those T-shirts for everyone to take home.
I think that was good idea and my daughter still wears that T-shirs.

WOW, those are excellent ideas! I'm not crafty though :) Keep the ideas coming. I can see why this saved you some money Mariya & I love the cookies & the magnet idea! The cookie one sounds tempting.
