Elmo, that revered little red muppet, babies love him. A one-year-old is probably unaware that a birthday party is happening for them; so you can be simple about your party and the party favors you give out to your child's little guests. Elmo-themed gifts are easy to come by and simple to put together in happy little Elmo bags.
Visit Your Party Store
Luckily, Elmo is one of the most popular party themes for babies and toddlers. Visit your party store and toy store for small Elmo figureines, Elmo slinkies, Elmo hats and Elmo crayons. There are also Elmo hair clips, Elmo stickers and Elmo beach balls.
Make Elmo Shirts
Buy some 2T sized white t-shirts and fabric paints in red, black and orange. Days ahead of time, make little Elmo shirts for each of your guests, with Elmo's happy red face on the front and the words "Elmo loves [Lilly]," using the name of each guest on the shirt. Pass them out as the kids are leaving. The kids will want to wear these home!
Dorothy
Dorothy the fish is Elmo's treasured friend. If you're up to giving a live animal as a party favor, you can visit your pet shop and buy a bunch of goldfish. They are extremely cheap and you will want to buy a few more of them than you need in case a few die. At the end of your party, ask each parent if they would like a "Dorothy" goldfish to take home in a plastic bag of water.
