Party favors?

DS's first birthday is quickly approaching. Just a quick question: do you give favors to adults and children, or just children?

It depends on what the favor is. If it's an edible favor like a cookie or candy buffet, I make sure there's enough for every guest, big and small. If you're doing like toy/treat (we did mini-inflatable beach balls, bubbles, and board books for my son's first birthday) I would just provide for the kids.

I do favors for both.

The adults just get edible things - this year I'm doing decorated sugar cookies and chocolate covered pretzels.

The kids get edible things and then some "fun" things - i.e. a mini look & find book & bubbles.

I've only done just kids but if I was doing something edible, I would do one for everyone.

I only did the kiddos because I did bubbles, crazy straws, and bubbles. If I was doing food, I would make sure we had plenty for everyone.

I agree with the pp, for my dds bday since several of the kids invited are older and I have no actual activities planned they get a coloring book and crayons (I'm hoping this will keep them somewhat entertained. They also gets a small stuffed rabbit. The babies just get the bunny, because they would only eat the crayons and tear the book. We are having a ton of sweets to eat there and adults will be welcome to take home any of the sweets as I know there will be many many left.
