At what age do you stop giving goody bags for kids birthday?



Hi-
I'm having my sons first birthday tomorrow and just wondering what age do you draw the line? We have a couple of 11 year old and 12 years old coming but I can't give them what I'm giving the younger kids. TIA

This was an issue I have as well. I am giving any kid 11 and older an edible favor. Kids under 11 will get a goodie bag.

I'd go with either an edible favor or somethign like a hacky sack. I bought a bunch at Star Tracks in Farmingdale (a vendor on the board).

Sorry I just realized I didn't answer your question. I still give my niece & nephew (aged 13 & 16) an edible favor. I'm big on that because there is no age limit on that. If you want to phase them out, I'd say a 14 year old isn't going to care as much. Under that they may still wish they were a kid.
