Easter Party Favors with HERSHEY’S Candy #BunnyTrail
Last week I shared with all of you a few home decorating ideas you could do using various HERSHEY’S Easter candies. Today, I am going to show you a different idea that you can use as Easter basket fillers or for elementary school parties.
As you all know, I am a grandmother to an almost 5 year old little girl who attends Pre-K School. For their upcoming Easter party, we made up little goodie bags filled with HERSHEY’S Kisses and Rolo candies in the pretty pastel colored wrappers.
Instead of just stuffing them into little cellophane bags, we decided to do something a little different to make them a little bit more special.
HERSHEY’S Kisses Party Favors
food-safe cellophane bags
curling ribbon
pastel colored cardstock
fine tip markers
glue dots
scissors
bags of HERSHEY’S Kissses and/or Rolo candies
Gather up all of your supplies and lay them out in an assembly line fashion. We measured around the bottom of a HERSHEY’S Kiss and made ourselves a circle template. We then traced this circle onto the cardstock paper and cut out a slew of circles. If you have a circle punch, you could use that too.
You can decorate the little circles with tiny Easter theme’d stickers or let the kids draw on them. In our case, the Princess had a great time decorating the circles with fine tip markers. She drew flowers, hearts, Easter eggs, etc. onto them. We then used a glue dot to stick the circle onto the bottom of each HERSHEY’S Kiss. The photo on the right shows them on the bottoms of the candies.
Simply toss them into the cellophane bags and tie a ribbon around them. We used curling ribbon which made them a lot cuter. You can add tags or decorate the little bags any way you like. Keep it simple or go way out! We used a glue dot and affixed a Rolo in the center of our curling ribbon bow which looks super cute (see top photo on the right).
You can get some great Easter craft ideas, recipes, etc. by visiting the Celebrate With HERSHEY’S web site. Matter of fact, hop on over there today and come back to let me know which idea or recipe was your favorite!
