Here are some more Baby 1st birthday ideas.

You can measure your child’s height and weight filming this process on your camera.

We also bought Magic box with clay by Baby Art to make our daughter’s footprint and handprint. She was so happy with this; she definitely liked the process so we filmed this too.

Birthday cake is a very important thing. You surely can order some beautiful and huge birthday cake shaped as a doll or a car for your child but you can also make a special cake in your kitchen. Use only the products your child has already tasted and you’ll be sure that if your kid would like to bite cake a little - there will be no allergy.

A candle. It’s better to teach your child how to blow the candle few days before the party otherwise he/she can show no interest in it during the course of Birthday party.

You can also make a poster or a calendar consisting of your kid’s photos and rimes.

Before the party you can order balloons filed with helium – children adore them. Don’t forget to buy some soap bubbles – it will make your child happy. My daughter played with balloons and bubbles the whole evening on her Birthday.

Have a good party!!!

My congratulations! Your baby’s first birthday coming up. In this article you can find some baby 1st birthday ideas.

The first birthday is a special one but your child won’t keep it in mind cause he or she is too small for it. So your task is to make your child happy on this day and make everything possible to record all memorable moments.

Start from choosing what kind of party you need. If your child is very emotional and impressionable the best way is to have a family party with a small number of gests. It’s very important that your child have some place where he or she can hide from the party and gests and relax from all that stress.

A present is very important detail. Don’t you think that the more presents you’ll buy the better. More favorable is to get one interesting toy cause your child won’t be able to play all that mount of presents at a time.

You can start a kind of tradition presenting some symbolic gifts. For example you can give your child one gold or silver coin each year so when he or she will be 18 he/she will have 18 coins.

You already know the number of gests and the stile of your party in the next article I’ll share more baby 1st birthday ideas.

By the way, if this is about the baby shower, you can find some useful baby shower tips and ideas here.

When you are expecting a baby, thousands of questions mount on you. Where can I get a baby stuff, how to predict baby gender, what name to choose for my baby, but the question “how will my baby look like?” is the most vital for some of us.

As I know most babies are not very pretty when they just appear to this world. They are reddish, wrinkled and constantly crying but for each and every mom her child is the most beautiful creature on this planet.
I think, every mother to be worries about her baby’s appearance: Will my baby girl or boy be pretty? Will it be the very image of me or my partner? Every child is a morph of his parents, their parents and maybe some other relatives. It can take your nose, your partners eyes, and lips of your great-great mother.

One more interesting detail, the appearance of your child is going to change slightly during his or her life. It can be like this my daughter when a newborn was the very image of my husband, when she was 6 month old she was similar to my granny and now she’s my copy!

Let your child be the most beautiful for you!

When I was choosing a name for my daughter it was a long way to go. I wanted it to be special and unusual. At that time I wasn’t sure whether I expected for a boy or a girl – it was just the first trimester of my pregnancy. At first I asked for an advice from my relatives but their variants were not suitable for me and my husband.

Then I sit and thought for a while, what criteria my baby’s name should fit to, plus it has to have some good meaning and sound nicely. That is when I addressed to list of baby names by meanings. Do you want to know what I’ve chosen?! It was Paullina. It means sunny and sounds really gently.

It was a true story from real life. Use can use this baby name suggestor, and I find it to be quite useful as it uses the same principle – try to set the criteria first and then you will see the proper name. You can check baby name suggestor in real action now.
