Let me be real with you for a second.
Planning a kid's birthday party is no joke. Between the cake, the decorations, the goody bags, and keeping a room full of excited kids entertained, it's A LOT. And every year, parents are spending way more than they need to on party favors that end up forgotten in the back seat by the time they get home.
That's exactly why I created the Printable Activity Booklet & Topper Template and y'all, it might be one of my favorite things I've made. It's cute, it's fun, it's budget-friendly, and the kids actually USE it. Let me break down everything you need to know.
What Is It, Exactly?
For just $3.50, you get a complete digital download that includes:
- A printable activity booklet PDF packed with fun themed pages kids will love.
- An editable Canva topper template that you can customize it with the birthday child's name, age, or any details you want (free Canva account is all you need!)
- A surprise bonus freebie because everybody deserves a little extra! ✨
This is a digital product, which means the moment you purchase, you get instant access. No waiting on shipping, no running to the store last minute. Just download, print, and you're ready to go.
Right now I have two themes available, the Magical Unicorn and the Safari Adventure, with more themes on the way. Whether your little one is into sparkly things or wild animals, there's something already here for you, and so much more coming soon.
What Do You Print It On?
Here's the beauty of it..you have options.!
Regular Printer Paper (Standard 8.5" x 11")
If you want to keep it simple and budget-friendly, regular copy paper works perfectly. It's lightweight, easy to fold, and prints beautifully on any home printer. Kids don't mind at all as they just want to color and play!
Best for: Last-minute printing, high quantities, and younger kids
Card Stock
If you want a little extra durability and a more polished, premium look, card stock is the move. It holds up better during the party, especially if kids are using markers or crayons. It also gives the topper that sturdy, display-worthy feel when it's folded and assembled.
Best for: Keepsake-quality favors, older kids, and toppers you want to stand up nicely
Which weight card stock should you use?
- 65 lb card stock: Easy to fold, still has a nice weight. Great all-around choice.
- 80 lb card stock: A little sturdier and slightly harder to fold, but looks really premium.
💡 Pro tip: For the activity booklet pages, stick with regular paper or 65 lb. For the topper, go 65–80 lb card stock for the best result.
How Do You Fold It?
Once you've printed your pages, it's time to bring the booklet to life! The download comes with step-by-step folding instructions so you're never left guessing. Follow the guide and your booklet comes together beautifully. No special tools required.
All you need is:
- Your printed pages
- Scissors
- A stapler to bind the pages together
It's genuinely that simple, and the finished product looks so good. It's the kind of thing people pick up at a party and go "wait, you made this?!" Yes, you did. For $3.50. 😌
When Can You Use This?
I designed this with birthday parties in mind, but the uses go way beyond that. Here's how you can put this booklet to work:
🎂 Birthday Party Favors
This is the big one. Along with filling treat bags with plastic toys, hand out a personalized activity booklet. Add the birthday child's name to the Canva topper, fold it up, and staple it together. Done. Adorable. Memorable.
🎡 Carnival & Fair Booths
Running a kids' activity booth or game station? Print a stack of these and let kids take one home. It keeps the fun going long after the event ends.
🏫 School Classroom Celebrations
End-of-year parties, Valentine exchanges, 100th day of school, holiday parties, this booklet fits right in. Teachers, this one's for you too.
✈️ Travel Entertainment
Long road trip or flight coming up? Print one out beforehand and tuck it in your carry-on. Instant entertainment, no WiFi needed.
🎊 Baby Showers & Family Events
These make the sweetest little activity favors for the older kids in attendance who need something to do while the adults enjoy the party.
🎁 Gift Bag Addition
Pair it with a small treat, a sticker sheet, and a little toy, now you've got a full gift bag for under $10. That's a serious win.
🏠 Rainy Day Activity
Honestly? Just print one out on a slow Saturday and let the kids go to town. You're welcome.
