First BIRTHDAY Don'ts

Planning your child’s FIRST BIRTHDAY can be a bit difficult.  You want it to go off without a hitch but your guest of honor can be unpredictable.  Here are some 1st birthday don’ts to avoid, so you can make sure their first birthday party goes great.

1. Don’t plan during or close to nap time or bed time.  Not only can your baby be grumpy and irritable during the whole party (which doesn’t make for good photos) but they can also sleep through the whole event.  Plan your party during their best time of the day – even if it means late morning.  Adults are more flexible than one year olds.

2. Don’t invite all 100 of your closest family and friends.  Lots of people,  especially ones that your child is not familiar with, can get pretty overwhelming.  A baby overwhelmed can be a grumpy baby.  Keep your party to a smaller, more manageable number and with more familiar faces.

3. Don’t forget to take pictures.  If there is someone at your party you can trust to do a good job, assign them the job.  As Moms or Dads we end up taking all of the pictures only to realize years down the road that we have no proof that we were even there.  So take pictures but tell someone else they are on camera duty.

Super Hero Birthday Party

Super Hero Birthday Party

Super Hero BIRTHDAY PARTY

The super hero theme is a perfect birthday theme – especially for a 1st birthday. There is something very special about SUPER HERO'S. While we all would love super hero powers the common theme in all super heroes is that they always come to help others. If you are looking to host a super hero party, here are a few things to make sure you have for your party.

 

Capes and masks. It wouldn’t be a SUPER HERO party without some capes and masks readily available. While you can supply them some awesome super hero dress up costumes you can also encourage your guests to bring their own.

  1. Action figures. Pick up a few super hero action figures. Not only are they fun to play with after they also make awesome party décor.

    Pow! Ka-Boom! Need some more décor ideas? Put these awesome sayings around your party venue. They are a throwback to the older super hero comics and shows.

    Themed Treats. An awesome idea is to name some of your party treats after famous superheroes. Chicken wings can be BATMAN Wings. Green rock candy can be Super Mans Kryptonite.
