The Spritz section at Target is honestly one of my favorite places for classroom party favors and end of year class gifts.
Five Below Candy Finds
One of my favorite places for kids party bags is definitely Five Below.
I love their mix-and-match candy section because you can choose individual candies instead of buying giant candy bags. This makes it easier to create customized goodie bags kids will actually enjoy.
I picked tropical and fruity flavors to match the beachy summer vibe of the bags.
Amazon Summer Gift Tags
To make the goodie bags extra cute, I ordered these adorable “Hello Pool, Goodbye School” summer gift tags from Amazon.

How I Assembled the Goodie Bags
One thing that makes assembling classroom goodie bags SO much easier is counting everything first.
For example:
- if your child’s classroom has 15 students
- place 15 bags on the counter
- count 15 of every item before starting
This makes the process way faster and less stressful.
Each bag included:
- 1 freeze pop
- 1 pretzel snack
- 1 mini bubble solution
- 1 candy
- 1 summer gift tag
And honestly, they turned out so colorful and fun for the end of the school year.
