1st Birthday Party Resource Guide
Presented by: The Event Planners
at Cypress Event Center, Cypress, TX

Create Lasting 1st Birthday Memories

The 1st year marks a special milestone. Make sure your child's favorite characters are there to decorate your table.

To incorporate the 1st birthday into any theme, cut some large number 1's from bright colored paper and tape them to walls & curtains.

Use a theme cake to match the party, add a number 1 candle onto your cake or make a cake in the shape of a number one. 

Use favorite photos of the birthday child (from baby birth to current).

Use your child's favorite stuffed animals or toys that match your theme and place these around the party room.

If you can't find party ware to match your theme, design your own party ware and use a colorful theme-oriented fabric or sheet as a tablecloth.

Make placemats with a number one on them.

Use a Happy 1st birthday banner that matches your theme or use a personalized birthday banner.

Use a poster for guests to sign and add their best wishes. Dress your poster up with themed stickers.

Balloons and streamers to match party theme. Be extremely careful with balloons, they are a major cause of choking in small children. Be sure to remove all pieces of popped balloons immediately or any balloons that become deflated.

Have your camera ready and take lots of pictures.  A one year old has absolutely no concept of parties, despite the significance of the occasion. In later years however, they will enjoy seeing pictures of this landmark occasion and these photos will furnish your child's only recollection of this first party. Take pictures of:

• Child in birthday outfit prior to guests arrival.
• Front page of your newspaper
• Birthday child with each guest, makes a nice insert to send with Thank You notes.
• Birthday Child eating cake and opening presents.

Entertain your little guests with activities like: blowing bubbles, finger plays, activity songs, free play time. Here are a few items that toddlers would enjoy playing with:

Games & Activities:

• Walker Races
• Crawl to the Ball Race
