Elmo Party Goodie Bags

The {Homemade by You} link party is still going on......If you want to link up some of your projects CLICK HERE

Let's go back to our preschool/kindergarten age. Remember how we would proudly get out our box of crayons, new scissors ( that our moms wouldn't let us use---but now since we are in school we can) and our stick of glue! Well, this project is really THAT simple! 

My son is turning ONE in just a few weeks and he LOVES Elmo!  It seems like most kids his age do :)  We decided to do a Elmo & Train theme party. Jacob has 3 little buddies coming to his party. I know, I know--his parties will get much bigger when he starts to go to school, but for now, while his parties are small I decided to do little goodie bags for the kiddos.  ( I'll have a tutorial for what I am going to put inside the bags in a few more days )  These three bags took me less than 20 minutes and cost less than $1 a bag!

Materials:

Red paper bag

( you can find these at ANY craft store...I actually found mine at a party store

---they were like .50 cents a bag)

Small piece of black, orange/yellow and white construction paper

Glue Stick

Ready for the O' so difficult instructions......

Cut out TWO white eyes, ONE orange nose, TWO black pupils & ONE black mouth

Glue to your bag!  {Wipes the brow} that was a toughy!

( If you have kids that are a little bit older than ONE, this would be a perfect craft for them to do for their own party---you can make some of the other sesame street characters or maybe even make funny looking eyes and teeth for a monster party?! The bags come in all sorts of colors!  Have FUN!

HAPPY CRAFTING!
