Celebrating your baby\u2019s first birthday can be one of the most exciting events you\u2019ll ever get\u00a0to plan. I mean, just think about how much you\u2019ve gone through over the past year. In fact it\u2019s even more than a year, because they say babies first months start in the womb. It was basically like a rollercoaster of emotions (ooh that\u2019s a cool theme) for both you and your new family that accumulate to one single and very exciting day. When you get passed all of your mixed emotions, you\u2019re left with the fun parts, and that\u2019s the party planning. Yup, they\u2019re just a one year old, and they probably don\u2019t have very high standards when it comes to their own parties, but hey, it doesn\u2019t mean they don\u2019t get to celebrate their first year in the world!

\nDeciding on the perfect theme for your kid can be a somewhat hard task to pull off, after all there are so many to choose from, and how well do you really know your baby after 12 months? Or in other words, how selective can your baby be when he\u2019s only starting to express his first words and understanding the meaning of things? Let\u2019s just say it out loud and get it out of the way, planning a birthday party for a one year old is really more about the parents than it is about the kids.
\nNot all of us are Pinterest savvy, and certainly not everyone is creating an inspiration board before a big event, but still, we all want to be somewhat creative without having to spend so much time nor money, we just need a little direction to know where to search for that endless inspiration. The ideas are out there, you just need to know where to look for them.
\nSince anything related to design and basically anything aesthetic is very close to our hearts, we\u2019ve gathered five first birthday party themes that are not only hip and trendy, but can also appeal to both genders and with a little DIY, are also affordable. Think of it as our little Pinterest \u00a0present for your baby\u2019s first celebration.

\nFor the Outdoorsy Baby<\/strong>
\nWhether you want to celebrate indoors our outside, with a camping-themed party, you can really go all out, literally. Now, we know your baby doesn’t express his wishes to go out camping at this point in his life, but you can definitely tell if he likes to be outside or not. Whether he likes to feel the grass or the sand beneath his tiny little feet. You can set up a small \u2018fake\u2019 fireplace and have tiny teepee tents spread out. On the sweeter side, you can hand out little \u2018smores as your party favors. It\u2019s pretty much everything rustic and we love it.

\nFor the Party Animal<\/strong>
\nWhich parent doesn\u2019t own an animal book or has played the Old McDonald Had a Farm rhyme at least ten thousand times for their infants. In fact, we, as parents, have a very important job in teaching them all the animals in the world, even those we\u2019re not really sure about their names.. So what\u2019s more fitting than an animal themed party for your one year old baby? Those really advanced babies can even mimic some of the animal sounds, which is pretty cool.

\nTime Flies<\/strong>
\nNow with this theme you can both get all retro in the design and get very creative. Nothing is more true than the fact that \u2018time flies\u2019 in the first year of motherhood. It\u2019s like one big rollercoaster where you and your baby go through much, together and separately, that it only makes sense to have a birthday party with that concept.

\nA Tropical Feast<\/strong>
\nWe don\u2019t know about you, but the tropical trend will never get old, at least in our opinion. Maybe it\u2019s the bright colorfulness or just the spirit of that whole concept, but there\u2019s just something so fun about going tropical. Since the options are pretty much endless in terms of how creative you can get, you can really just pick on what makes you the happiest. It can be the table setting, the party favors or the cake topper, either way, it\u2019s your party, w mean your baby\u2019s party, so it\u2019s your choice. It also looks great in pictures.

\nScandinavian Inspired<\/strong>
\nIf you\u2019re more on the low-key side of design and in life generally, then you can always go black-and-white and have a Scandinavian inspired birthday. There is something very clean and \u2018mature\u2019 about it, and it doesn\u2019t take away from the playfulness of the whole day. Again, the possibilities are countless, you just have to go with what fits your baby\u2019s style best.
