  • Leave a set of Disposable Cameras on the Tables: Encourage people to take photos of people attending, events to help take pictures while you are busy with your child.
  • Fill a Baby Photo Album with pictures from your child's first year. Include pictures of as many of the guests as you can. Have each guess sign the photo album on a page you designate or this album offers a memo space next to each picture. Comes in white, black, blue and pink.
  • Finger Painting or Hand Printing
  • Free Play area with toddler friendly toys.
  • Entertainment

  • Having music in the background always is nice to have at parties.
  • Video: Create a video to play in the background of your child's first year.
  • If you have toddlers and other children attending, hiring entertainment can be helpful to keep children occupied. Hiring magicians, balloon makers and face painting artists are some suggestions. Clowns can be fun but also can be scary for some children.
  • Food and Drink
