Anyone else have plans for kids activities/favors?

Anyone else have plans for kids activities/favors? 1

I'm super happy with our idea now that I have it all finished up. We found these cute little 4-color doodle/erase boards on Amazon and figured we'd have them on the favor table for the kids. Hopefully keep the ones who don't want to dance busy and they get something to take with them! What is everyone else doing if you're having kids at your wedding?

    That's a super cute idea. I haven't thought that far ahead yet, but I do know I'll want a kid table with coloring books, etc.

    That’s a great idea. Are there going to be quite a few kids at your wedding?

    Im not 100% sure yet because our wedding is September of 2022 but with my bridal party theres 3 kids and several close family members have 2 or 3 kids so I bought enough kits for 24 kids, probably more than I need to be honest but I am hoping to not need to order more. I am also doing a kids buffet through our caterer which is something they offer. I figure why pay $12.50/ kid when they will only pick at the main meal when I can pay $4.50/ kid and have a meal they like (chicken nuggets mac and cheese tator tots). Our caterer also sets up the kids meal seperate from the adult meal so the line goes more smoothly.

    I didnt ask I just happened to see it in their list of options and thought thats a great idea! Maybe talk to your caterer and see if they have that option. Half my wedding party has said they would rather eat the kids buffet than the adult buffet lol!

    Haha, that’s funny we all worry about what to feed our guests and realistically they’d eat off the kids menus giving the option lol! I would but our wedding is only 23 days out so we’re pretty much set but I love that idea!

    How about getting some cheap dollar tree crayons and find a few coloring book pages to print out and they will stay busy and can bring it home if they want. You can find some in thrift stores for less expensive options. Smiley smile

    I'm putting together a little bag of goodies for the 6 kids that will be at our wedding--bubbles, sunglasses, a ring pop, crayons, and a cute wedding activity book I found at Target! These are a great idea though!

    Thank you! It wasn’t even that expensive, I think a pack of 16 is 20-30 $ and there is no mess I got them on amazon!
