Planning a 1st Birthday Party can have a lot of stress involved. But here we give you some checklist items you can work through when planning.
Decide the date, time and location first
Get all of this laid out at least two months before. This way you are organized and can give family and friends the information early. They will be able to schedule everything around your little one’s birthday.
Plan the time around your baby’s schedule. You don’t want them sleepy or grumpy at their own party.
Create a small guest list
The guest list is the next thing on the list. It is a good idea to keep it small, so little one doesn’t become overwhelmed. They don’t quite know what is going on yet, so a lot of people can be a bit of a shock.
Choose a theme
Themed parties are fun. Plus it means it is easy to choose the little plates or decorations.
Keep the decorations bright and fun. Your baby will love colors and things that move. Balloons, stuffed animals etc are great ideas.
There are many themes to choose from for a first birthday. Think about your little one’s personality and what they love. You can even have guests dress up (along with the birthday baby).
Prepare adult and kid snacks
A 1st Birthday might not last long but having snacks for both the babies and adults is a great part of a party.
You don’t need to make it complicated, just some simple party food from the shop is perfect.
Book a cake smash
When Planning a 1st Birthday Party a cake smash can be a great extra for celebrating. You can capture the special 1st birthday moments. It is good to book these when you’re planning the party. Another thing to tick of early so that you get the date you want.
