So a whole year has flown by! Your baby has already learned to sit, stand, possibly walk. So many small discoveries have been in your family this year. The first smile, the first children's laughter, the dearest first "ma". Your baby is quite an adult. Congratulations, the hardest part is over. It will be easier further. You have coped, you have passed this way with dignity And this is the most important thing. There are only a few days left until the first birthday of your baby. And, naturally, the question arises - how to celebrate the first birthday of the child?
In fact, there is one correct answer that lies right on the surface, you know it. Celebrate the first birthday of your child the way you want, as you see fit. And, believe me, this will be the best holiday ever.
The kid, although he has grown, still cannot express his opinion. For him, the main thing is to have mom and dad next to him, who take care of him and love him with all their hearts. So don't worry. As you decide, so be it. There is no universal way to celebrate the first birthday of a child, each holiday is good in its own way.
But, when organizing the first birthday of a child, remember the following general guidelines.
You don't need to invite too many people to your baby's first birthday. This is not a wedding. The kid will be more cozy and comfortable among several well-known people than in a crowd of all-all relatives, half of whom he does not even know. And do not be afraid to offend anyone without inviting your child to the birthday party. I think your relatives and friends are adults, and they will treat your decision with understanding.
- Pay special attention to the menu. Remember that this is your child's first holiday, and he will be pleased to see cheerful guests. Merry, not drunk. Therefore, do not overdo it with alcoholic beverages. This can ruin the whole holiday, or even scare the baby.
- Most likely, on the first birthday of your child there will be other children - brothers, sisters, children of godparents. Make sure the children are not bored. Prepare toys in advance, inflate balloons. In the end, the kids come to the holiday not to eat, but to play with each other. And it will be much easier for parents when the children are busy with toys, and not running around the house.
Your baby is already so big, but at the same time so small. How to make it clear to him that this is his little holiday?
I will share my experience. And on the basis of this, you can already decide how you will congratulate your baby. Since Nastaska is a dormouse, my husband and I decided to prepare a surprise for her when she sleeps in the morning. We inflated many, many balloons (10-15 pieces), bought a beautiful cake, a candle in the shape of the number "1" and made a festive cap. For a one-year-old child, this was more than enough. You should have seen how surprised she was when she saw so many balls, how she played with them. The cap remained out of business, because Nastya persistently took it off. Then we lit a candle on the cake and blew it out together. And I made a mental wish.
In fact, this is the minimum. But the child doesn't need it anymore. He still doesn't understand why mom and dad suddenly brought in so many balloons, bought a cake and asked him to blow on the candle. The child does not care what you give him. He is happy with any gift. And even more, the baby is glad that you are near.
The first birthday of a child is a responsible day. But don't worry, everything will go as you dreamed. Remember this day. He is so important in your life. Just a year ago, you were in the maternity ward, afraid of childbirth, worried. And today your baby is already walking towards you!
I sincerely wish your holiday to become amazing and memorable, so that even guests will remember it for a long, long time. Make a wish on this day, believe me, it will come true. After all, this is your holiday too. You have given life to an adorable baby. Do everything to make him the happiest!
