sidewalk chalk party favor

Let it be known that I detest goody bags at kids' birthday parties. They're little bags full of crap that will soon end up in your vacuum cleaner and down in your floor vents until the end of time.

Let is also be known that I love this sidewalk chalk party favor idea from Maggie at Mighty Girl. It's small, it's singular, it's useful, and it can be used up! Perfecto.

Even better, Pier 1 Imports has Stripe & Dot Sidewalk Chalk on sale for just $1.48 right now.

Do you have any bright ideas for useful party favors for kids?
