1st Birthday a Party? Making Lasting Memories

Planning your child's first birthday party can be fun and challenging at the same time.
Decisions from what theme to choose to what type food and goodies to serve can be overwhelming at times.
Don't make yourself crazy trying to create the perfect birthday party ever.
There are thousands of party tips and ideas to help you along the way.
Consider having a theme.
Themes are an effective way to pull everything together.
You can choose all your party supplies such as invitations, party ware, decorations, games and party favors on a specific theme.
Many first birthday themes have vibrant colors, favorite characters and boy or girl specific patterns.
There is one perfect for your celebration.
You might order invitations in your theme or if you are creative consider making your own invitations with card stock and scrap booking materials.
Scrap booking embellishments like buttons and stickers work great on children's invitations.
Glitter gel pens to write the when and where give an extra pizzazz to your invitations.
Your child's stuffed toys along with banners and balloons are great party decorations.
If you are having a Sesame Street theme party, set out your child's Elmo, Big Bird and Cookie Monster toys.
Use the stuffed toys to hold balloons to create festive centerpieces.
The kids will enjoy party games and eating on party plates and drinking from cups that are printed with their favorite character.
Don't forget the party hats! Keep entertainment fun and simple since children's attentions are short.
Use music for kids to dance and sing to along with putting on a puppet show with the themed stuffed toys.
End a great party with a loot bag stuffed with fun party favors.
Favor bags filled with party favors that match your theme are a great way to say "thank you" to your guests.
Limit the number of guests.
Make your child's first birthday party memorable by spending it with the people who matter most, like family, friends and close relatives.
Don't feel you have to invite everyone you know, like the people from the next town or people from work.
Keep in mind that most children at this age experience separation anxiety.
Let your child enjoy his first birthday with the people he know and likes.
It is important to make your child's 1st birthday party fun.
Sit back, relax and enjoy your child's 1st birthday, it only happens once.
Let the party begin!
