Making a big or modest party will depend on you, but it is important to remember that the first birthday is almost a celebration for parents, the baby still does not understand what day is or what is happening, therefore you will not enjoy this event as a Larger child and could get nervous with so much movement and new people. The advisable thing is to opt for something simple in your house or in the one of some relative

During the celebration of the first year, as well as the second, the guests are normally the closest family and friends, some of them are already parents, so it is usual that there are many adults in the meeting. If you plan to invite friends with children older than yours, you must have means to entertain them and not get bored, be it games or some type of attraction. If you are contemporaries with your baby you can allocate a space of the house supervised by adults to the playground, enough with your little one so that everyone can have fun

Decorate a table for food and cake, you can use the classic: paper tablecloths, plates and plastic cups, streamers and hats, all very colorful to give the special touch of joy at that time. If you are a good baker prepare the cake yourself or ask someone in your family for help

The food for your baby's party can be prepared by yourself at home, if there are children available for them the classic snacks and trinkets of children's parties, taking into account that they are not things that can be choked like gums or nuts, while for adults you can prepare a table of cheeses, sausages, patés, and a small menu of snacks. Remember that it does not have to be too elaborate, it is a time to celebrate but it is not necessary to get complicated

The schedule of the party of the first birthday of your child must be chosen carefully, choose a time of the day in which you know you will be awake, but still take into account that it is likely that the child falls asleep at some point of the celebration . It is important that you do not force him to stay awake or he will become irritable, let him rest and wait for him to wake up again to chop the cake and blow the candle

For a baby with one year elements such as music can be nice and make you anime, so do not forget to choose a good repertoire of children's songs, better if they are on the list of your favorite shows. On the other hand forget to decorate everything with animated characters, at this age the child does not appreciate it in the same way as a child of 3 or 4 years

For small guests you can not forget the souvenir bag, if they are contemporaries with your baby or even very small it is better to give them colors, or a book to paint, because they may be too small for sweets

Remember that for the safety of your baby and children guests must keep in a safe place all objects that can break, keep children away from dangerous places such as stairs, balconies, windows etc and be aware that it does not fall to the ground no object that the little ones can put in their mouth and drown (like broken balloons, tiny pieces etc)
