maybe not rude but i remember always hating the fact there were no goody bags at birthday parties but….maybe one little gift for everyone?? A bag filled with candy is robably a cheap but best bet

I don’t see why they need party favors when it isn’t really their birthday party. It isn’t required and if someone gives you problems then ignore them or tell them that if they want party bags they can have them at their next party.

Since you are having a party at an playnasium you definitely do not have to have party favors. The parents appreciate the invite to begin with and knowing that it cost per person and you will have food and tokens or whatnot..I don’t think the playasium would appreciate a bunch of kids throwing all that crap onto the floor of there business anyway(because you and I both know that’s where it ends up, in on the floor then into the trash) so why throw your money in the trash

From what I understand the party favors are kind of like a thank you for the gift that the person gave to you…..in other words its not about the food or where you are holding the event because you will do that either way ………it is about receiving a gift and saying thank you for that gift……….so I guess as long as you dont expect the participants to bring a gift then favors are not necessary but if you do then I’d say you should run to the nearest dollar store and put some bags together………..it doesn’t have to cost that much, you can do what i do……buy things that come in packages like erasers, pencils etc and spread them out, this way it is more like .10 cents per item rather than a whole buck….kids just love any bag they get and I can guarantee half of the parents expect you to give one even if they dont say it.

It is not rude to skip the party favors. They will not even miss them with all the fun they are going to have.

54 guests is a lot for a six year old. The party will be very expensive, so party favors wont be a good idea. They will be too expensive. Kids that age love candy, and although the other parents may not be too thrilled with all the sugar, a bag of candy can never hurt.

have fun!

It would be a better idea, but don’t push yourself too far, maybe just give them all a candy bar or balloon for the kids.

well since theres that many people, you don’t need to b/c they probably arent expecting any for a big party like that.

It is not rude or inproper to not do party favors. You have taken on alot, and anyone who indicates otherwise from your party guests, i would say they would be the "rude" ones. I hope all goes well for you and yours!
