Party favor question...

MediaBride

Rather than a "goodie bag" we are planning to do cookie favors (Thomas the train shortbread cookie... icing... you get the idea).  Party is a little over a week away and now I'm thinking that a cookie favor isn't enough?  I didn't want to get a bunch of cheepy toys that wind up on the floor of my car after the party, but now I wonder if the kiddos will be disappointed that it's a cookie favor (MINE would not be!).

 Is a cookie favor enough?  It's a decent sized cookie.  I'm totally overthinking this, right? ;-) 

 

ETA:  My other idea was a personalized coloring book and crayons.  I can still do this (instead)... I have 2 more days to cancel the cookies...

I think it's fine.

We just did the same thing for DS' party this weekend, and I had the same last minute panic that it wasn't enough. It totally was fine and both parents and kids seemed happy.

Yes, totally fine and way better than cheapie junk.

We did cookies, and it was fine. Both the kids and parents enjoyed them.

I think it is fine.  DS has been to 4 parties this year.  2 gave favors and the other 2 gave nothing.  The 2 parties that he got favors from were both lots of little stuff, I would have preferred the cookies.  We are giving kites to each of the kids at DS's party next month

WE did Cookies for DD's party last month, and it was a big hit, so I think from now on we will do cookies.

I think the cookie alone is a great idea.  I hate all the junky stuff you get in goody bags and no one needs more candy.  I love the coloring book idea as well but would only do one or the other, not both.
