Planning for a 1 Year Old Birthday Party - Give Your 1 Year Old a Great First Party

October 8th, 2009 by Eric

A child’s first birthday is a special time not only for the parents but also for family and friends. Their birthday party should not only be geared towards them but also creating memories. When you are planning a 1st birthday party consider how you want to remember this once in a lifetime occasion and how to make it happen.

Themes are a great place to start when making first birthday party plans. It will make a lot of the decisions easier since your options will be limited to what matches the theme. A themed party is usually more enjoyable for guests and can lead to great photo opportunities. Games and other activities that relate to theme are a great way to keep guests entertained and involved.

The cake will be a very important part of planning a 1st birthday party, even if the child doesn’t get to have any of the cake. Guests are always excited by great cakes that are delicious and well decorated. Cakes with pictures on them are the usual choice for a child’s party but if you’re entertaining older guests you may want to go with something more sophisticated. Think about who you are catering to when picking out the perfect cake.

Every birthday party will have presents. If there are certain things you need for your child, you might want to set up a gift registry at nearby stores. It’s an easy way for guests to find out what you could use and buy gifts they know you’ll appreciate. This will result in happy guests, a happy you, and a happy 1st birthday.
