If you are planning a party, the name game is something that can be incorporated into your party regardless of your theme. Personalized party favors are that little something special that allows each guest to feel special and dresses up even the most inexpensive party favors.

When planning a party, anytime you can incorporate party activities into providing personalized party favors, it is a good move. Kids need structure and activities at parties, and if you can combine a crafting activity with personalized party favors, you are going to save both time and money while you keep the party goers entertained.

Consider buying photo mugs at a local dollar shop, to create your own personalized party favors. You can start the party off by taking a picture of each guest as they arrive. These photographs can be of the guest alone or taken with the party person. When all the photos are taken, consider having a helper print them using your computer printer, and insert them into the cups. Once that is done, use washable paint pens to dot to dot kiddie paint the guest's name on the mug.

Similarly, especially if you have some messy party activities planned, it is a good idea to buy inexpensive white T-shirts in a size roomy enough to go over the clothes your guests are wearing and fit everyone. The guests may then sign each T-shirt, so there will be personalized party favors for everyone to take home with them, and these can even be enhanced by using transfer paper and ironing on a copy of the photograph you took for your mug personalized party favors.
