Custom Toys and Novelties Under $1
When a giveaway has to reach hundreds of kids or fans, these four novelties keep the cost below a dollar each, with prices from $0.65. Three are mood stadium cups that change color when filled with a cold drink, made in the USA from BPA free, food safe plastic in 12 and 16 ounce sizes.
One 12 ounce cup can be printed in full color. The fourth item is a recycled whistle hanging from a coil, a favorite for field days, parades and safety talks.
Planning Notes
- Mood cups: the color shift entertains kids at birthday parties, school carnivals, church camps and family restaurants.
- Full color option: pick the full color 12 oz cup for photos, gradients or logos with many colors.
- Whistle: clips onto a backpack or wrist and doubles as a safety tool for walkers, hikers and campers.
- Quantities: minimums range from 150 to 500 pieces, and production takes about 19 days.
Mood cups are reusable, so one handed out at a summer reading kickoff can come home and stay in the kitchen cabinet for months. Order them alongside the pricier plush and games in this department to stretch a budget across both a crowd giveaway and a smaller prize table.

Frequently Asked Questions
This small group has four items: mood stadium cups that change color with a cold drink, in 12 oz at $0.79, 12 oz full color at $0.89 and 16 oz at $0.99, plus a coiled whistle made with recycled plastic for about $0.65.
A mood cup is a plastic stadium cup that shifts color when a cold drink is poured in, a novelty kids and adults both enjoy. Three of these cups are made in the USA, BPA free and listed as food safe. They work at birthday parties, fairs, pool days and summer camps.
Minimums start at 150 pieces and go up to 500, matching the high-volume nature of fairs, camps and youth events. Production is listed at about 19 business days after proof approval, so order early for summer events.
Yes. One 12 oz mood stadium cup offers full color printing, which suits photos and multicolor logos. The other cup sizes and the whistle are screen printed with a solid ink color. The color-changing effect adds visual interest whichever method you choose.
The whistle is made with recycled plastic and comes on a stretchy coil for the wrist, and one item in this group has a carabiner for clipping to a bag. At about $0.65 each, it suits coaches, lifeguards, camp counselors and safety programs as well as kids' giveaways.
Setup ranges from about $40 to $95 depending on the item and decoration. Since the items themselves cost under a dollar, ordering more pieces spreads that fee across the run and lowers your real cost for each cup or whistle.
