I am trying to come up with a good birthday party favor that I can use at my daughter 2year old birthday party. Last year, I did Hershey bar wrapped in paper with a shipping label with her picture and Thank you for helping me celebrate my birthday. I have also done bubbles, the same way.
I would love to come up with another idea to use this year for kids who are 3 and under. There will only be about 10 kids total. I really don't like the plastic stuff since no one really likes it.
I was going to say the same thing as Kamil. i think cds are great. Super cheap and very useful! I am giving these as my favors for my baby shower next month. Crayons and coloring book are cute too. My sister gave kites, but that was in march. a board book from the dollar bin. a cookie with thank you on it. good luck!
Bake for Me and Cookies By Design do small, favor sized cookies that would be fun. Best of all, they get eaten and it's nothing at home for parents to trip over.
At last year's party I had a character and then for favors I had gotten cardboard photo frames/folders, took each child's photo with the character and then used a shipping size Avery label stuck to the front of the folder that said "Me and Charter X at Suzie's 2nd Birthday Party".
Maybe cd's with kids songs on it and the label on the cd be personalized or how bout lil t-shirts with your daughters bithdate and occasion printed on it...like "I was a guest at (name of your child) 2nd birthday party"...this would be easy with iron on's from Walmart or Office Max, etc. Also you could think about a clear bag filled with m&ms with a label on it. Or how bout buy bubble bath and change out the label to a customized one....lol...thats all i got.
Depending on where you buy, this could get expensive. Though maybe not if you only get for the kids. Wrap 1 or 2 birthday cookies in cellophane or colored plastic wrap and tie with a ribbon. then attach a happy Birthday balloon. Toddlers really don't care about little things like this though I am sure they would love the cookie. Some bakeries make specialty cookies and you can look online for a place. For my daughter's baptism, I bought stickers with her name and the date and placed them on suckers for the kids. There are many to choose from. I bought them online at Candles and Favors. You could possibly make them yourself but with me time was very limited and it was just better to pay $20.
I'm in the same place you are! My daughter turns 2 on Feb 27th and I'm struggling to think of something cute, yet sophisticated. Here are some websites to look at. I'm pretty crafty, so I think I may try my own version of some of these, but you can order them too!

I hope you find something that fits your party needs! My problem is I like too much!
