Baby Turns 1 Year – A 1st Birthday Party Celebration!

A baby’s first birthday is a milestone to treasure. Growth and development occur so rapidly in those early years that it is worth a special celebration. Planning a first birthday is easy to do, and any party planning specialist at a party supply store will be happy to help.

Themes to celebrate your baby’s first birthday can include multiple characters with the number 1. Simple characters, a color, or another party theme can also be used if your baby displays a favorite. Pink is very popular for girls and any shade of blue is ideal for boys.

A tradition at many first birthday parties is to let the baby break your cake. They get their own cake, big or small, it’s up to you and how much mess you want to clean up. Putting the cake on the tray of your high chair and letting them scoop it up with their bare hands is entertaining. The first tasting of sugar and frosting can be a great photo opportunity for any guest. It is recommended to remove important clothing at this point!

Create a special scrapbook for baby to remember his party. Cut out a piece of wrapping paper from each gift to stick on a page. Add a paragraph of who it was and what it contained. The special notations of how long it took for the baby to open the gift are fun to read when they grow up.

When sending thank you notes, include a photo of the baby with the cake and the frosting smashed on his face. The image will be treasured for years to come, whether it is received by a friend or family member. The image also works well at high school graduations and weddings and makes a lot of laughs.
