Keep the Kids Busy at Your Wedding

More weddings are including children as guests these days so why not prepare special wedding favors that will appeal to young kids? Put together a few wedding coloring books - if you're handy with desktop publishing you can even make a personalized wedding coloring booklet with each child's name on his/her wedding coloring book cover. Include a few blank pages in the coloring book for young artists who might want to draw their own pictures, too.

Even if your guest's kiddos aren't invited to your wedding, you may want to prepare a special thank-you gift for your flower girl and ring bearer. Or, you may have children in the care of a nanny or sitter during the wedding and reception.

Wedding coloring books will help provide quiet entertainment for your youngest guests. You can make your own from printable coloring pages and add a small package of colored pencils, crayons or markers (for older kids who won't decorate the table cloths or themselves).
