Choose the Right Party Favors
Step1
Decide on a budget for party favors to figure out what kind of items you can afford.
Step2
Figure out if you will be having one kind of party favor for all your guests, or several types. You could give different favors to kids and adults or boys and girls.
Step3
Ask your daughter what she has in mind for party favors. She may have a definite idea or may be open to suggestions from you or your party planner.
Step4
Incorporate your Bat Mitzvah them into your party favors. Even if the objects you're giving don't have much to do with the theme, try to keep colors and fonts consistent.
Step5
Consider giving your guests something they can wear, carry or keep, such as bags, purses, CD cases or t-shirts.
Step6
Select party favors that are fun souvenirs like stuffed animals, mugs, key chains, pens or sports balls.
Step7
Give away special gifts and fun props during the party to really wow the kids. DJs and staff can distribute glow sticks, necklaces, and costume pieces like glasses and hats to dancers. You can hold dance contests and gives CDs and toys as prizes.
Step8
Select a party favor that will also serve as a place card for the guests during the party. You can tie small gifts to cards, use framed photos of the Bat Mitzvah girl, or decorate small baskets of candy and treats.
Order Party Favors
Step1
Use a mail order company like the Oriental Trading Company for themed party favors. They have an immense variety of themed goods to compliment any party.
Step2
Order party favors through your party planner. She will most likely have a list of preferred vendors. She can also make suggestions you might not have thought of and will troubleshoot for you in case there are any issues with the ordering and delivery process.
