Preparations On Your Baby’s 1st Birthday
You can’t believe how fast your baby has grown; you’re almost ready to celebrate your child’s 1st birthday! If you’re looking for very special gift for your baby, or aren’t quite sure which types of party theme(s) to go with, here are few ideas that may help.
In order to make the party a little more special, you may want to consider getting your baby a T-shirt for the occasion. There are a number of 1st birthday iron-ons that you can purchase at your local craft store, and you can also search online through sites like Ebay to find designs that you can use for your little one’s party shirt. In order to further personalize the shirt, you may want to take the shirt to your local T-shirt shop to add your child’s name and birthday to the shirt, so you can keep it in your baby’s scrapbook.
Of course, you’ve been keeping lots of pictures of your baby’s first year, so the 1st birthday party is a great place to showcase these photos. You can purchase a Baby’s First Year Frame with lots of space for pictures of your baby’s Communion, first time crawling, and first steps. There are frames for girls and boys, and you can visit your local craft store to find sequins or fabric that you can decorate the frames with; adding your child’s name to the frames will also make the project more unique.
Even though this is your child’s 1st birthday, and you’re pretty sure that they won’t remember every detail of the party, you should still make sure that the celebration is kid-friendly. This should be a celebration where all your friends and loved ones should feel comfortable brining their children, so you may want to convert one room in your home into a playroom for the party. It may also be a good idea to have the party outdoors, so that you can provide plenty of space for the children to play.
The location of your baby’s 1st birthday party will also give you more choices when it comes to the food that you will prepare. ‘Baby’ foods would be a great theme for the celebration; you can serve appetizers like baby carrots and smaller versions of broccoli or cauliflower, and if you want to keep the meal light, items like baby quiche for the adults and mini sandwiches for the children are sure to be a big hit.
