Does anyone know where I could find plastic hallow spheres that could be used in place of the styrofoam ball so that I can fill it with party favors?

Party City! They are 6 inches in diameter which might be a little bigger than what you’re looking for though.

I found them on the website, but they only sell them by quantities of 12 it looks like. In store you can find them individually though. I can’t recall how much they are though.

If you are looking to make favors I would suggest buying a bag of balls meant for a ball pit. To get a hole in them so you can fill them, simply, though carefully, hold each ball over a candle and burn a hole into the ball. Wash them off, fill them with candy and enjoy!
