The first birthday of your child is one of the most anticipated events in the family. Preparing the first birthday party maybe stressful but keep in mind that your one-year-old celebrant doesn’t really care about a single detail at all! They won’t notice if the party bags don’t match the napkins and paper straws or whatever. In short, it’s all up to the parents plus the working group who are willing to be a part of such highlight in a kid’s life.
It is exciting, to put together a party for you to be able to show your little one the photographs of how he or she was loved by the family, relatives and friends. They’d appreciate it as they grow knowing there’s so much people around wishing them all the goodness there is in life. A first birthday party doesn’t really require to be grand and expensive, but a venue with the dearest people is enough to make it a special first birthday celebration of your child.
For you to be able to determine the load of work and time frame, it’s very important to know how you wanted the party would turn out to. The first step of planning is setting up your birthday party budget immediately followed by choosing a birthday party theme for your baby. Once you’ve chosen your theme, then you know you’re on the right track of the colors are needed, food stuffs, games, costumes and other details.

Minnie Mouse Birthday Party Costume / Outfit for the Celebrant
I find Mickey generic. Boys can love him and it’s a no problem if girls would love him too. But with Minnie Mouse, I haven’t seen her for a boy’s party yet. She’s always been associated for girls alone. So okay, let’s proceed with the Minnie Mouse Costumes for a girl celebrator and the way I see it, Tutu has become a sure trend.
In inviting guests, make sure that the people close to your one-year-old are on the list. Do not invite hundreds of guests whose faces can be intimidating to your birthday celebrator. Invite family, grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles. Kids in the neighborhood who are familiar with your one-year-old may also be in the list.
How about letting the other family members wear this Mickey mouse cap, Minnie mouse big ear cap?
Minnie Mouse Birthday Party Decorations
Home is the best place for the first birthday party. Your one-year-old is familiar with your home. There is no need to adјust to a new place when her special day comes but if you’re going for a larger venue then it’s fine. A party venue without decorations is going to be very dull. Especially when it’s a children’s party, suit the mood of the adults and the young ones by setting up the birthday theme’s related decorations. From the entrance or door of the venue, to the stage or front background, to the table centerpieces and the hanging balloons and banners. Mesmerize your guests with how creative you can be.

Make sure that there is party food that is going to be good for the kids and the adults as well. Different kinds of sandwiches-for kids and for adults are satisfactory to everybody.

Avoid serving food that may choke the little boys and girls. The last thing that you want is for your party to turn into an emergency right?

Minnie Mouse Birthday Party Games
The kids’ most awaited part of the party. If your child’s birthday falls in winter, make sure to set up activities indoors. You can have a table with crayons, drawing pen and paper for younger kids for some birthday crafts they could take home when done. If the weather is fine, then outdoor games will depend on the age of the kids. If the venue has large space, then some activities can be done inside. Again, make sure the materials and props for the Minnie Mouse game ideas are safe for the children.

Party treat bags are for older kids. You cannot put much in the treat bag of a one-year-old. Most party treats are dangerous for your one-year-old because they are choking hazards. If you really want a treat bag for the little one, a soft small stuff toy may do the trick.

Most importantly, make sure you know the nap time routine of your child. The birthday party should take place during the hours you know your child would be awake. If the child’s routine is changed, chances are your one-year-old will get exhausted in the middle of the party and start throwing tantrums. Once this happens, other young children attending the party may follow and the whole party mood will be spoiled. A two-hour party is enough not to stressed out your one year old child as well as the young guests.
