You can make what I call party crackers.  It is based on the Christmas 
Crackers that were featured in the Harry Potter stories.  You take either 
toilet paper roles or cut the tubing from wrapping paper to same size.  Wrap 
with birthday/Christmas paper so there is at least 5 inches of overhang on 
either end of the tube.  Twist one end closed and tie it with the wrapping 
ribbon.  Take festive wrapped candies of all kinds and fill the tube up to 
but not beyond the edge of cardboard tube.  Twist the wrapping paper to 
close that end and secure it with a ribbon just like the other end. 
Kids/adults can open one end and get their treats.  You can put all sorts of 
things in them, small things like for stockings, coins, money, or even clues 
for a mystery surprise hidden somewhere in the house or in the surrounding 
yard.  I have done the mystery clues which led to several more clues until 
it led my husband to look in the back seat of his truck.
