I can't beleive my DD will be 1 year old in a 2 months. Time definitely flys by. My goal is to have a low stress party so I am planning early. I have some of the favors for the few kids who are coming but was wondering whether I am supposed to had out favors or goodie bags to adults. Just thought I would see what you all think or are doing. ↓

I agree time sure flies. My DD turned 1 in May. We had a pretty low key party, circus theme, so I made little circus boxes out of animal crackers and put a few cute party favors and some candy in them for the kids only. The adults got squat! ;-) lol Well, actually they enjoyed some of the candy from the pinata. It really is for the kids, so I wouldn't stress on giving the adults anything. Have fun! ↑

Sorry I meant to say I made a little holder out of the animal cracker BOXES. :) ↑

I never get the adults anything. If you wanted to make it fun you could. For all my kids I just bake and decorate a cake and have ice cream. We decorate to whatever theme and I usually have a veggie and meat & cheese trya for everyone to snack on before cake. And then of course a few activities for the kids. In the summer water guns or water ballons are a hit for the young and older guest. It is all about the kids, so I wouldn't worry about getting things for the adults. You could send a Thank You card later for their gift. ↑

We only had one child at my DD first birthday in May. I ordered little paper boxes off of Ebay for the family that was attending...I got 15 for about 9.00. They were only about 2x4 in size. I bought these little acrylic picture frame magnets and put her 1st birthday studio pictures in them. The frames came 2 to a package for 1.00 and then I put a hersheys kisses in the box. We only had family at her party so I wanted to give something...but they would have been fine with nothing. I only spent about 25.00 on them so it was not much. ~~Good luck. ↑

I never hand out anything to the adults. It's up to you I guess. The party is for kids so I don't think any of the other parents are going to expect anything for themselves. That's a really cute idea with the boxes too, jendean00! ↑
