Many Parents Choose To Pass On Celebrating Their Baby’s First Birthday In An Extravagant Way, And If This Is How You’re Feeling, Here Are A Few Suggestions On How To Still Have A Special, Yet More Toned Down Celebration

When you’re done wandering around, head to the gift shop and pick out a stuffed animal souvenir that resembles your child’s favorite underwater creature.

Or if the weather is nice, make your way outside for an adventure in the fresh air and spend some quiet, quality time with the birthday boy or girl. Being in the outdoors is always a treat for any youngster.

Have a picnic in the park and bring along your child’s favorite foods. You could also include a small cake or cupcake they can dig into.

It’s best to make a mess out in the open rather than within the confines of your beloved home. Better the picnic blanket bears the stains of brightly colored frosting than your beige carpet, am I right?

In addition, your tiny tot will have a blast climbing on the playground structures, with your supervision, of course.

Whatever you choose to do on your baby’s special day, make sure to snap plenty of photos to mark the occasion and compile them into a scrapbook at the end of the day.
