We went to the Aquarium for the day. As a party he wouldn’t remember and it would be more just for us and everyone else. We did a tea with grandparents and auntie and uncles if they wanted to drop in. He was happy and no props/party entertainers were needed.
My sons birthday is in July. We're thinking of doing a picnic in the park and if family and friends want to join they can. A couple of balloons and maybe a little cake but nothing over the top.
I believe the first birthday is just as much about parents (or, in some cases, mainly mum). Definitely do something to celebrate the milestone of keeping your little one thriving for a year.
I went big or go home 😅 I took my son on holiday but it was mainly for me but he loved it x
@Juanita yes we are going on holiday tomorrow for an early birthday present
My partner doesn't want to anything for our sons 1st for the same reason but I'm worried I'll regret not having memories for me. I'm still in two kinds about what to do!
