Theme party return gifts: 9 printed bags and what to put inside

Let the bag carry the theme and choose the gifts for the children. Our nine ₹25 printed paper bags cover unicorn, space, flower, dinosaur, jungle, Happy Birthday, multicolour, Cocomelon and carnival themes. For any other theme, the customised theme bag is printed with your own design and text. Inside, add one gift that echoes the theme.

Jungle, Cocomelon, carnival and flower printed gift bags from the Celebration Gifting catalogue

Key takeaways

  • Nine printed paper bags at ₹25 cover the most common party themes; each is 8 by 10 inches.
  • Let the bag carry the theme, then add one gift inside that echoes it, such as a unicorn gel pen or a projector toy for a space party.
  • For a theme we don't print, such as cricket or a favourite colour, the customised theme bag carries your own design and text.
  • Most combos come in a Happy Birthday bag, which you can swap for a theme bag in Build Your Pack.

Theme party return gifts don't need every item to match the decor. The bag does most of the work: children see it first, and it is what ties the pack to the party. This guide walks through our nine printed bags, what to put inside each, and what to do when your theme isn't one of them. You can try any of them in Build Your Pack.

Which theme bags can you choose from?

Nine printed bags at ₹25 each, all paper and all 8 by 10 inches: unicorn, space, flower, dinosaur, jungle, Happy Birthday, multicolour, Cocomelon and carnival. In the Celebration Gifting catalogue on 7 October 2026, these nine printed bags are 9 of our 17 packaging options; the rest are a customised bag, a haversack bag, premium transparent and semi-transparent bags, and a vanity suitcase.

A ₹25 bag leaves up to ₹125 for gifts in a ₹150 pack.

Does a theme bag cost more than a plain one?

No. The nine printed bags are our cheapest packaging at ₹25. Every other option costs ₹40 or more, from the customised theme bag up to the premium transparent bags, so a printed theme bag is the cheapest way to make the packs match the party.

What goes inside each theme party return gift bag?

One gift that echoes the theme, plus whatever suits the children's age. Every item in this table costs ₹125 or less, so it fits a ₹150 pack with its bag, unless marked otherwise.

Bag Words on the front Suits Gifts that echo the theme
Unicorn None Unicorn, rainbow and fairy parties Unicorn gel pen, DIY diamond kit, shimmer neon party glasses
Space None Space, rocket and science parties Projection torch, kaleidoscope; the rocket piggybank and space sipper bottle cost more
Dinosaur "Happy Birthday!" Dinosaur and dig parties A clay set (card clay or air clay), so children can model their own dinosaur
Jungle None Jungle, animal and safari parties Rabbit glass water bottle; the animal character head notebook costs more
Cocomelon "Happy Birthday to you" First birthdays and toddler parties Magic water book, water game, mini Mickey piggybank
Carnival "Thanks for coming" Fun fair and games parties Noughts and crosses game, maze game, spinner, mouth organ
Flower None Garden parties, spring themes and festivals Fruit erasers, a small colouring book, a slub glass sipper
Multicolour None Mixed themes and festivals Anything; it suits Diwali and Navratri packs too
Happy Birthday "Happy Birthday" Any birthday Anything; this is the bag most combos come in

Five of the nine bags carry no words at all (unicorn, space, jungle, flower and multicolour), so they also work for festivals and class gifts.

We have no dinosaur-shaped gifts in the catalogue, so the clay set is the honest suggestion there: children shape their own.

Two pairings that fit a ₹150 pack, checked against catalogue prices on 7 October 2026: a small card clay set with a maze pencil in a dinosaur bag, and a unicorn gel pen with a DIY diamond kit in a unicorn bag. Both leave room for one more small extra, such as stickers.

What if your theme isn't one of the nine?

Choose the customised theme bag. It is printed on one side with any theme and text you ask for, so a cricket party, a favourite cartoon or a colour scheme all work, with a line such as "Arjun turns 7". It costs more than the ₹25 bags, so keep the products to ₹110 or less for a ₹150 pack.

The customised bag is paper too, and it is the one option that carries your child's name on the outside.

Should the gifts inside match the theme too?

Only loosely. A pack where every item matches the theme is hard to build, and a gift that is fun to use matters more than one that matches. One themed item is enough for the pack to feel planned; the rest should suit the age group.

For mixed ages, keep the theme on the bag and choose gifts that work for everyone, such as stationery or colouring. For toddlers, the Cocomelon bag with a magic water book or a water game is a natural pair. For older children, the carnival bag with a game they can play with friends, such as noughts and crosses, goes further than a small toy.

How do you change the bag on a combo?

Tap Select Combo, then go back to Packaging in Build Your Pack and pick a theme bag before you set the quantity. Most combos come in the Happy Birthday bag; a few come in premium transparent or semi-transparent bags.

What should the thank-you card say at a theme party?

Something that picks up the theme. Every pack includes a printed thank-you card, and our team confirms its message with you on WhatsApp after you order. Keep it to 160 characters. A few that fit:

  • Space: "Thanks for blasting off at my space party! Love, Kabir"
  • Dinosaur: "Thanks for stomping along at my dino party! Love, Ira"
  • Unicorn: "Thank you for adding sparkle to my birthday! Love, Myra"
  • Jungle: "Thanks for joining my jungle adventure! Love, Vihaan"
  • Carnival: "Thanks for coming to my carnival! Love, Anaya"

Which combos fit a theme with a bag swap?

These three combos pair well with a theme bag. The Kids Creative Activity Combo has a projector toy for a space bag, the Happy Hands Hamper has an air clay set for a dinosaur bag, and the Playful Combo Pack has a jump toy and a light-up spinner slapband for a carnival bag.
