Its certainly a milestone in your babys life and yours too because you have made it through the first year of parenthood. Frist birthday is certainly a day to celebrate. You child might not remember it but you will, so make it a special event- but where to start? Put on your party planning hat and get inspired to pull off a great birthday bash with these creative first birthday party ideas.
Keep it Short
Babies have short attention span and lose their interest quickly. So watch the clock and do not extend the event for more than 2 hours. Plan the party late in the morning or afternoon so the baby isnt tired.
Venue
Your adult friends and relatives will be joining along with their kids, so its good to hire one of the perfect London birthday venues. Most of the party spaces make necessary arrangements like catering, lighting effects, photography, DJ hire, and theming the event too. Event planners help keep everything organised.
An Intimate Gathering
Rather than inviting everyone and anyone, plan an intimate party. Invite only those who are close to the child. You can hire one of the small London venues for an intimate gathering. An intimate gathering will be more comfortable for your child than an extravagant affair.
A Photo Shoot
First birthday definitely warrants a special photo shoot so you can treasure the memories forever. Click pictures of your baby stuffing his face with birthday cake or in fancy outfits. If you have themed the party, you have more poses and outfits to experiment with. For example, for safari theme, you can dress your child in khaki shorts and a hat.
A Play Zone
Many babies are still on all fours, so its a good idea to create a play zone for your baby and other little guests. Fill the play zone with appropriate toys. Hire a babysitter to keep everything organized.
A Memory Box
Have a box with pieces of pages placed nearby for guests to write something. Each guest can write a dream or a wish for your babys future. It will become a keepsake for your little one.
Dont Stress
Party planning anxiety is common, but dont stress. Your baby will be happy as long as hes with you and feels love and care all over, and thats all that matters.
First birthday is a once in a lifetime event. So, take inspiration from these creative ideas and plan a delightful and fun birthday party for your little one.
