When my nephew married nearly 8 years ago, his bride thoughtfully made up activity bags for all the young children attending the wedding. Rachel and Sarah were the recipients of two of these and they were happily occupied during the reception.
With a lot of kids attending this wedding we opted to do activity bags for children 8 years old and under and we currently have 28 on our list! Wow!
I am using simple brown lunch bags cut down in size a bit with a decorative edged scissor.
Also going into the bag some little note pads, stickers (purchased inexpensively from Target during Valentine's), really cute 'ring' erasers and crayons packs bought from Oriental Trading. Four crayons in a pack and a specialty sticker on the front with Lindsay and Joseph's names and their wedding date.
The cost per bag is about $1.00.
This is one of our best ideas for the wedding and one that doesn't break the bank! That's always a good thing.

OH I am definitely doing this:) Thanks for the idea! Those little ones will love having something to do! Have a blessed day, HUGS!
That is BRILLIANT
That is such a great idea! Love the wedding themed coloring pages.
I've never heard of this before, but what a great idea! Those children will have something meaningful to do during what is often a very dull time for them. Sounds as if everything is under control.
What an amazing idea!

These are brilliant and timely for me. My sister is getting married soon and has asked me to come up with activities to keep the little ones busy. Your bags are brilliant and I think I may be visiting the etsy shop. X
