question regarding party favors (probably very stupid)

DS's first bday is coming up and we're going to have a party at our house (about 30-40 adults + 6-7 children).

My question is: Do I give the favors to the children only, or do adults get something too (specifically the childless adults)?

I don't remember ever getting a favor at kids' parties I've attended in the past, but I just want to make sure I'm remembering correctly.

TIA!

I did favors for the children only. and I've been to many, many parties where there were no favors, not even favors for the children. Although I made chocolate lollipops for the dessert table that ended up being favors for all of the adults. not planned but it essentially turned out that way. i would just focus on the kids.

I personally would do an edible favor for all.

If not, favor for kids is totally fine.

I think it's totally up to you. Not expected, but nice if you want to. I did a favor for the kids (a crayola set for the one year olds) and caramel chocolate dipped pretzels for the adults.

Nothing for adults. Save the money and just give to kids.

I wouldn't do favors for an at home party but that is just me.

Def not everyone. As an adult I could care less if I ever get a favor again...even at a wedding.

Re: question regarding party favors (probably very stupid)

Our first was a pig production (60 adults plus kids) at a catering hall so we did a dessert table as the "favor" and it was for everyone. didn't do a special favor for the kids.

we just had a 3rd birthday in the yard. about 25 adults and 8 kids. Only the kids got favors.
