Maybe theme the birthday party around a cartoon charachter she likes? My brother's little boy just turned 2 and they did a whole "Finding Nemo" party...cake, decorations and all!

I figured..."he only has one first birthday...we can do themes for his future birthdays!" At the age of 1...they really don't comprehend what is going on anyway!! LOL!! So I don't believe they appreciate all the work in finding a special theme! Hope you come up with something soon!!

You're right...a party with the 1st bithday theme is a great idea! I'm sure anything you come with for your daughter's party she will love!

We bought some pink cotton fabric and fabric markers and will have everyone at the party write their birthday messages to our daughter on the fabric. I wrote 'Happy 1st Birthday Love...' in the centre of the material and look forward to reading everyone's messages after the party.

It was great. I had rubber duckys floating in the punch bowl. I even tinted the water to make it look blue. We had a duck cake. I had to make duck invitation since I couldnt find any. I also rented a cotton candy machine. He loved it!

It turn out very Pretty! Back to top Samantha Guest Posted: Tue Jul 20, 2004 12:58 pm    Post subject: For my daughter's 1st b-day we did Elmo. She loves Elmo and takes her stuffed Elmo EVERYWHERE. I decorated everything with Sesame Street babies 1st b-day and got her a huge 3-D Elmo cake. She definately knew what was going on, everytime she saw another Elmo she would laugh hysterically. We had the balloons, a pinata (for the older kids), the cake, plates, cups...everything was Elmo. She loved it. I think if your child shows a real preference for a certain cartoon or whatever then you should go with it. We only did Elmo because she loves him so much. It was nice to see her so happy! Good luck!

Elmo seems to be quite the favorite with little ones! Let's see what birthday #2 will bring.
