A big shopping list

So this is to ask for suggestions and help from fellow AFCers.
My family (back in India) is organizing a family reunion this year and I am making a trip to India this July for the same.
For the reunion, I am incharge of gifts and have to do with the bare minimum as most of the funds is in Indian rupees.

For goody bags, I picked up cute photo frames from Aarons during their B1G1 sale a couple of months back. I have been stocking up on chocolates to add into the goody bags.

My biggest problem is looking for cheap and classy gifts for the various games we end up organizing. Each age group will probably have approximately 5 games and each game will have 3 prizes.

The age groups are,
Under 5
5-12
12-21
21-40
40+

So I am looking at approximately 75 gifts within a budget of around $100 (lesser the better). I am lost when it comes to the younger kids. I have not been around kids under 5 recently and so I need some ideas on what and where to look.

Other gifts I am planning to buy include bath and body works body splash small bottles @ 5 for 5. Any gift suggests for the men folk and the kids?

Please help!
TIA
I am reaching this stage

Watch for when the Target $ spot goes 75% off - they have some great things that I use for party goody bags for .25 each

For the kids - bubbles, stickers, blow up balls (like beach balls), colouring books & crayons, maybe
a pair of sunglasses?

I think that the kids would love crayons and fancy pencils. Target had those great gel pens not too long ago in the dollar spot (awesome at .25 when they went 75% off). I agree with the idea for bubbles and blow up beach balls. Look around a dollar store. The small manicure kits they sell would be great for the ladies! Emory boards, nail polish, etc.

Thanks everyone. I was at Bath and Body works yesterday and they had some body splashes in the 75% off section that rang up for .87 cents! Pretty cool prizes. I also picked up some for my stockpile. They will be good stocking stuffers or as a part of a beauty gift basket
