Birthdays are celebrated every year, but a few special and memorable ones hold more importance than others. A child’s first birthday is one such occasion that is celebrated with a lot of preparation and planning.

Keep reading this article to learn about some fun and exciting ways you can celebrate your child’s first birthday.

1)    Invite A Few Friends

One- year old kids don’t go to school and don’t have many friends. However, if your child goes to daycare or is part of a playgroup, they must have a few friends they click with.

Invite children who belong to the same age group as your child, so they can enjoy and have fun with kids their size.

Avoid crowding the birthday party by inviting a large number of guests, as it tends to irritate the children who might get fussy and won’t be able to enjoy their birthday to the fullest.

2)    Invest in Cake Smash Photography

It’s not every day a child has their first birthday. Therefore, it’s important to make the occasion more memorable and fun.

One way to preserve the first birthday memory is by investing in a cake smash photography session. The photography session allows the child to ‘smash’ the cake and have fun with it. 

And while they’re at it, a professional photographer takes candid pictures which capture the child in their natural element.

These pictures also allow the kid to relive their first birthday when they grow older.

3)    Plan Interesting Activities

Plan activities that are suitable for kids who are a year old. These activities can include a puppet show, a clown performance, or feature some mascots of their favorite cartoon characters.

Try and keep these activities simple yet fun so your kid and their friends can enjoy them thoroughly.
