1st Birthday question

The theme for DS's 1st b-day is a Carnival!!!

I rented a carnival tent, carnival type game booths with 2 games, game attendant who will be dressed up, clown, cotton candy machine and a blow up bouncer.

I also will have the gold fish game and the duck in the pond game.

I was thinking for favors, getting popcorn bags and filling it up with stuff.

So far this is all I got:
circus tent straw cup

Any ideas would be appreciated!

Thanks!

ETA: this is the popcorn bag I would use and the circus tent cup

Re: 1st Birthday question

In the Dollar Tree, I saw popcorn bags that were hard PLASTIC which were ADORABLE!! You can even personalize them with the kids names.

Fill the bags with cotton candy, clown tattoos, those JoJo circus cups are adorable, glow sticks, animal crackers (they have the circus theme printed right on the box).

Oriental trading has a whole Carnival section, but there is a technical error right now on that site.

If you need any more help, feel free to FM me for more ideas.

Re: 1st Birthday question

I think on Oriental Trading they has some carnival/circus type of hats you can buy by the dozen. Maybe the kids can wear while at the party.

Great theme!! I wish DS's Birthday was during a warmer month! Oct is too iffy with the weather. We had to book a room at a local yacht club.



I attached a photo!
