Planning a 1st Birthday Party for Your Child?
Your child’s first birthday is a special milestone—a celebration of their first year filled with love, laughter, and discovery. At one year old, your little one is curious about the world around them, fascinated by bright colors, gentle sounds, and simple, interactive play. This is a time for creating memories that will be cherished by family and friends.
At Kiddly-Winks, we know how to make your baby’s first birthday magical and memorable. Our entertainment is carefully designed to be age-appropriate, focusing on gentle, sensory-rich activities that engage and delight even the littlest guests.
Creative 1st Birthday Party Themes, Games, & Entertainment for 1-Year-Olds
Ready to celebrate your 1-year-old’s birthday? Our magical kids’ entertainment services are designed to ensure a fun and engaging time with friends and family.
Here’s a sneak peek at what we offer:
First birthday parties are big celebrations with guests of all ages. If your baby is up for it, we can definitely paint a little star or rainbow on their cheek. The other kids can become their favourite superheroes, characters, or princesses. Face painting adds a fun, interactive touch to your party! Plus, it makes for great photos!
Balloon twisting adds fun and excitement to any party, bringing in loads of colour and energy. Kids love using their creativity to pick from our variety of balloon designs, like puppies, dinosaurs, unicorns, and more. We’re sure kids will absolutely love these creations at a 1st birthday party.
Our fun and visually captivating magic show is meant to grab the attention of everyone, from the birthday baby to older siblings and guests. The little ones might not get all the magic, but they’ll love the bright colours and the happy reactions around them.
For a first birthday, our games focus on creating a fun atmosphere that everyone can enjoy. We bring lively, gentle musical and dancing activities that parents can join in with their babies, such as simple sing-alongs and soft dancing to favourite tunes. Our goal is to ensure that the day is filled with smiles, laughter, and special moments for both the baby and the guests.
Small, gentle bubbles are a hit with 1-year-olds! Watching them float and pop brings endless joy and wonder to little faces.
Party Planning Tips for 1-Year-Olds Birthday Parties
Here are some party planning tips to help plan your 1-year-olds special day!
1st birthdays are a special time, so keep the duration flexible! We recommend around 1.5 to 2 hours. It’s enough for fun without being too much for the little one.
The best times for a 1st birthday party are late morning (10:00 AM to 12:00 PM) or early afternoon (2:00 PM to 4:00 PM), fitting in nicely with the baby’s nap routine for a fun celebration. Adapt as needed to match the baby’s nap schedule for an even better time.
When picking a spot for a 1-year-old’s birthday party, think about places that are safe, comfy, and easy to move around in.
At Home: Throwing the party at home means a familiar space for your baby, which can be more comforting. You can manage and decorate it how you like, plus there’s no time limit like some venues have.
Local Park: If the weather‘s nice, a park is a great spot. There’s lots of room for guests, and older kids can hit the playground. Just have a backup plan in case the weather turns bad.
Community Hall: Renting a small community hall gives you plenty of space and usually comes with basics like tables, chairs, and sometimes even a kitchen.
Indoor Play Center: Some play centers have special areas for babies and toddlers, with soft play equipment that’s perfect for the little ones. Plus, they often take care of the cleanup!
Party favours can have a mix of fun stuff! Think wrapped lollies, stickers, toys, or activities. Make sure everyone leaves happy! Need help? We’ve got party bags filled with top treats kids will love.
