Handmade Animal Party Favors

The animal theme is often times a children’s theme where homemade party favors and crafts work hand in hand. Children love animal themed items and they love making them even more. Hosts save time by letting the children create their own handmade party favors to take home with them. It is a win-win situation for both the host and the guests.

Start off by letting guests know they can create their own homemade party favors that they will be able to take home with them at the beginning of the party. By doing the craft at the beginning of the party, guests will be able to use their animal themed masks at the party as well, once they have dried completely.

Making masks is easy for children as long as there is adult supervision. Masks can be made of paper plates, crafting tools and yarn. Guests will also need access to a hole punch as well as an adult to cut the eye, nose and mouth holes of the mask with scissors.

The best things about handmade party favors is that they can be whatever the guest wants them to be. Some might make a bear face while others might make a pig face. The best thing to do with this type of craft is to lay out all sorts of different items that might spark their creativity or interest such as buttons, glitter, markers, paints, crayons, gems and more.

Once all the decorating is done of the homemade party favors punch a single hole on each side of the mask and thread a piece of yarn through it. Place it on the child’s face and then tie where it is most comfortable.
