Babys First Birthday is so exciting! Your little girl or boy is one! The year has gone by so fast.

This is your chance to make it a mini wedding day filled with love. Just think, our wedding day was to celebrate our love to our spouse. Now, it is time to celebrate this child we brought into the world, this infant that we fell in love with, the moment we set our eyes on them.

To celebrate the year, some people love to host a big party to celebrate the special occasion. You can invite over friends, family, neighbors, and your other children’s play group friends. You may choose to invite just family or a few friends. No matter how you celebrate it, it will be special and you will cherish the moment forever.

Fun Products for Your Babys First Birthday!

I am always looking for fun, unique items to help celebrate. Here are a few fun things I found:

Babys First Birthday: Pick a Party Theme

In planning your party it’s easiest to plan around a party theme. Then you can have everything coordinate with the theme, everything from your cake, party favors, the party hats, invitations and more!

The Babys First Birthday Outfit

You want your little girl or boy to be comfortable. But, style is important! You may want something special, yet practical. Or you may want a breathtaking beautiful dress! It is your choice. They are too little to pipe in their opinion so enjoy it while they are still quiet.

Smash Baby First Birthday Cake

After the meal is served, you will want to offer your child and guests some birthday cake!!! Be sure to order or make a smash cake for baby too. This cake is the size of about a cupcake or sometimes a little larger.

Your baby will have so much fun eating and smashing the cake! Be sure to have your camera ready. This is an exciting moment!

The Babys First Birthday Cake

The cake is the centerpiece of your table. You have so many options: a tiered cake, a cupcake tower, fun shapes, and more. The number of guests you are having over determines the size of your cake.

One option is to serve a two tier cake for the special day, adorned with flowers or toys. Pick a theme for the party and have your cake coordinate with it.

The sky is the limit for the special party! Cupcakes are so much fun and easy to serve, you may choose to make a cupcake tower. This is easy to make and put together.

Party Favors

Send home a gift with each of your guests that might coordinate with your party or something special that they will enjoy. A few of my friends baked cookies. Place the gifts in a clear bag, and seal with a label with your child’s name.

Or, you may choose to give a book. Usborne’s That’s Not My Touch and Feel Books are loved by baby’s and young children. Usborne offers great deals for purchasing large quantities of books. They often offer free books for purchasing a certain dollar amount.

The Gifts

Often guests are looking for the special gifts to represent this special day! Here are a few of my favorite gifts:

Rocking Chairs: This is an excellent keepsake gift that baby will love to sit in for many years to come.

First Library: This is a great chance to give the child an opportunity to develop a love for reading at an early age. This is a gift that is priceless!

Jewelry: Give the child a ring bracelet or a new pair of baby earrings. It is something that they will treasure forever as they grow.

Party Invitations

My favorite invitations are always a photo with a picture! There is nothing cuter than seeing your baby’s smile and sharing it with others. This is something that you will want to save in your child's memory books so be sure to pick out your favorite!

Photographer

If you are going all out for the big party you may want to consider hiring a photographer or asking a friend to take pictures at the party.

You will be so busy with your child, visiting with friends, serving guests and more. It will be a busy day! You don’t want to miss getting pictures of the great moments.

Celebrating the First Year

To celebrate your baby’s first year, you may want to put together a photo keepsake book. You can choose your favorite photos throughout the year and include special messages, milestones and notes.

You and your children will love looking at them for years to come.
