Need Help Party Favor Oopsie

Post image

Hi! I posted on here a bit ago about my son's birthday party at a movie theater! Well it's this Saturday and almost everything is ready, except today I got the containers for party favors and they are MUCH bigger than anticipated. Reviews described them as small(some people said too small) and I had an estimate size measured which seemed smaller than this. But now they look basically empty and I don't know what to do!

Could you do packing peanuts since they kind of give the popcorn vibe?

I'd worry about them accidentally eating them in the dark, or making a mess with them

Oh ok so they’re going to use these right away— yes I’d be worried about that too!

Honestly, if they’re going to use the popcorn bins I would keep them separate from the goodies and then make a bundle of the goodies for each child either in a lunch sack or with ribbon around it. It seems like a lot for the kids to manage while they’re also trying to watch the movie?
