DIY Sleepover Gag Gift

DIY Sleepover Gag Gift

Kids love gag gifts. I love raiding my recycling bin to make funny gag gifts. That is exactly what my son and I did for a birthday party sleepover he was going to.

We dug out a cereal box from recycling. Stuffed it with tissue paper and our real gift. Tied the box up with ribbon then used a paper bowl and plastic spoon taped to it as the birthday card. We wrote a funny note on the bowl and then taped it to the top of our box. Easy, funny and no extra trips to the store for gift bags and birthday cards!! Enjoy!

What you will need:

  • Empty cereal box
  • Tissue paper
  • Paper bowl
  • Plastic spoon
