Straws

Parties with educational toys can be really creative for the kids. Give children toy puppets or toy pianos and have them put on skits or a musical talent show. Then, let the kids take home their toy as a party favor. When it comes to party straws, they are anything but normal. You can of course get the traditional straw that is straight and white, but adding a little excitement to them can be just the thing you need to make your party decorations stand out from the rest.

One of the most popular forms of straws is the bendable straws. Not only are they fun but they are very useful as well. Bendable straws come in many sizes, shapes and colors. There are also specialty straws that represent the different holidays. There are St. Patrick’s Day, Christmas, Fourth of July, Easter, Thanksgiving straws and more. In fact, you can even get customized straws that have your name on them or formed in them. Other fun shaped straws include an apple shape, alien, zig zag, lemon, bell, bone, phone, orange, pear, pig and more. If you can think of it, there is probably a straw for it.

Choosing a different shape straw for your party is a fun way to be different. This is especially true for those that have colorful drinks such as at a cocktail party. They fit in perfectly and break the monotony. They also provide a basis for a good starter conversation.

Straws are also a great way to add color. For example, if the color combination for your party is voide of color- say black and white- you can add a hint of color in the straws to spice it up a little. There are many things you can do with straws to liven up your party.
