Baby Birthday Parties That Are Memorable

By:


Baby birthday parties always include adults, which is why some find them difficult to plan. But, when the babies have fun, the adults generally do as well. So the focus is on the babies, with some minor adult considerations, such as food, drinks, and maybe seating.

Regarding the parties being memorable, you have to keep in mind that they are only memorable to the adults, and it's usually because of something the babies did, more than anything planned. However, with the incredible photo books that can be custom made on the Internet these days, the memories can be captured for the babies to enjoy a little later in life. So you want to make it the best possible.

For the most memorable baby birthday parties, give some thought to the following.

Guests- Specifically who and how many you plan to invite has a lot to do with the party. More than immediate family, I would definitely send custom photo invitations that you can order online. I would suggest limiting the party to no more than about 10-12 other babies (if that many), and depending on their age, have as many of the parents present as possible.

Time- To give yourself the best shot at having all the babies smiling when you sing happy birthday, plan the party around naptime, ideally about thirty minutes after. Keep the party duration around 60-90 minutes.

Pictures- Make sure at least two people take pictures, and have extra batteries on hand. Take lots of candid shots, and some planned posed ones that are important to you.
Note the planned ones so that you don't forget them. Baby birthday parties can make a great photo book, or at least provide some good pictures for one.

Games and Activities- You should limit this to about 30 minutes. Do a Google search for ideas that fit your budget and what you feel is appropriate for the age. Crayons and coloring books may be about all you need to keep them entertained for 20-30 minutes, and it will also provide some good photo shots.

Food- Have some that fits the age group, and of course save the cake and ice cream for last. This also provides a great opportunity for pictures. There really is no need to go overboard here, and sometimes plenty of cake and ice cream is all that's necessary.

Remember, the most memorable baby birthday parties are a result of the babies, not some fancy themed decorative event, though you can certainly do that as well. It won't mean much to the babies, but sometimes the adults like it, and that's really who the parties are for.
