It's not a huge deal if I don't hand out favors at a b-day party, right?

We have about 15 kids coming to Evan's birthday party on Saturday. ?It's at a gym-type place, kind of like Little Gym where they do activities with the kids for about 45 minutes, then we'll have pizza and cupcakes. ?I'm just not feeling like making up goody bags, and I'm wondering if anyone will even care. ?WDYT?

I didn't do any for Jake's 1st party, but I'm goign to try to for his 2nd...

Can you just give them bubbles or stickers...or something small?

I would not throw a party and not give out favors, but that is just me.

I don't think anyone will miss them. ?They are usually just junk anyways, kwim??

I don't think it is, but I almost always through the stuff from them away anyway

I never heard of giving favors for a party other than a wedding until I came onto the nest, so no, I don't think its a big deal to skip them. I had packaged ladybug cookies at DD's party, but thats only because they were cute and delicious.

We do give them out, but I try not to hand out junk. I really don't think that it's a big deal not to, though.

I give out $5 gift cards to either Target or TRU. I HATE goody bags however would never throw a birthday party without favors.

No way.  Not a big deal at all.  I probably wouldn't even notice.  OR  I'd probably be glad that I didn't have candy or whatever to take home.

i didn't do them for dd 2nd. I actually bought wiki-sticks but lost them (and have since found them)...

I don't think it is required.
