Give First Birthday Invitations a Creative Twist

You can’t believe your baby is nearly a year old. Where have all the days (and sleepless nights) gone? As you prepare to celebrate, send creative first birthday invitations for a special theme party.

You can choose from a number of creative 1st birthday ideas that will give friends and family a chance to celebrate your special child and bless his future. Because the child won’t remember this birthday, take lots of birthday party pictures and create things that the child will be able to look at in the future.

Birthday Party Ideas

A favorite idea for a first birthday is a tree planting party. Send out seed packets for invitations. Invite friends and family to meet you in your yard or even in a park. Adults and kids alike will enjoy playing in the dirt and helping to plant the birthday tree. The first birthday tree can become a tradition. Every year on his birthday, you can take a picture of your child by his first birthday tree.

Another idea for a first birthday is to host a scrap-booking day. It’s hard for busy moms to find time to complete that baby book. Invite friends and family over to help create the pages. Serve cake and punch and enjoy looking back over your child’s first year with other people who love her. Use scrapbook paper to create custom invitations.

A third idea is to create a video storybook. Take all of the video and pictures of your child’s first year to a video editing company. Have them edit the elements together, add music and transfer the video to a DVD. Create a digital invitation on a CD or make an invitation using a picture of your child. At the party, share the video storybook, enjoy birthday cake and sing happy birthday to the guest of honor.
