Kids activity pack suggestions?

For those having kids at their wedding reception, are you doing up an activity pack for each little one, or having one activity table?

I'm planning on having a little package for each child, since many will be toddlers and sitting with their parents through the 'boring' dinner and speeches. I'm wondering what to put in each pack and would love to hear suggestions! So far I have:

-5-6 crayons

-Wedding colouring sheets/activity book

-Small toy from the dollar store (but without small parts that can get lost!)

    Have you considered having a cup with see straw for little ones as they get to enjoy something to keep and use daily? The same kid package your putting together was put by my cousin for our wedding so they were kept busy.

    Blocks and some games would occupy their time aa well.

    We're doing a kids table. The "table cloth" will be brown paper covering the top with jars of crayons, stamps, stickers, etc. We are also setting up a play corner with some board games, bubbles, simple toys and stuff. We are also getting those paintable sugar cookies for them to do.

    We want the kids to have as much fun as the adults. ❤

    I would avoid messy stuff... More for the parents to clean up. All the weddings I've been to that had small children (3-6 years old), they all had colouring books.

    I think anythings that could spill/stick would be an unsafe choice...

    You can sometimes find little handheld, non-electronic games... I don't know if it's just me, but I remember Denny's/IHOP having bubble games, you push the button and the rings shoot up and try and land on the pegs? Just me? It's small and probably cheap, and quiet! Haha.

    -Playdough is always a fun option. You can buy small little containers from the dollar stores

    -Sometimes you can find small craft kits for younger children that come with everything in the box from the dollar store or on sale at Micheals, which would be fun for them
