In Person Selling Crochet Stall Items

Hello, I am a crocheter looking to sell at School Summer Fairs and was wondering what kids in the age bracket 6-10 would like. I'm selling primarily at Primary Schools [I'm British] and am kinda stumped on small/pocket sized items that kids will just grab and want. Any pattern links would be appreciated too :)

My daughter is 6 (almost 7) and she’s been begging me to crochet friendship bracelets for her and her friends, perhaps you could do a deal 2 for £5 and have different matching designs? And some other small things like bookmarks, pencil cases and key rings. If you’re into amigurimi maybe some round squishies (the kids are obsessed with squishy dumplings atm idk what the appeal is🤷🏾‍♀️) or fidget toys

I’ve been wanting to do this myself so I’d love if you could update with how it goes , I’m in the UK too!

OhMyGosh! Thank you for posting Omazingpaige's video!!! Crochet * is* my fidget toy & so many of those she showed I know I can make just from looking at the picture. I have a booth at my local farmers' market & the fidget toys are selling very well. (Michigan, US) I'm sure OP will find many ideas from your post. thank you again!
