Baby's First Birthday Party Favor Ideas for Girls & Boys – Baby's First Birthday Theme Ideas - Party Supplies

Baby's First Birthday is a very fun and exciting event to plan! Whether you're planning the event for your own child or for someone else's child, there are tons of adorable and thoughtful party favor ideas for Baby's First Birthday!

It is considered proper etiquette to provide guests with some form of a party favor, especially when gifts are received. Party favors can be as extravagant as you want or as simple as you want, but they should be thoughtful – remember, you're showing your appreciation to the guests! You don't have to spend lots of money to provide impressive, thoughtful birthday party favors. A little creative and thinking outside the box can go a long way.

It is commonly practiced choosing a Baby's First Birthday theme to closely follow your baby's original nursery theme and/or theme of the baby's shower. Whatever the theme, it holds great sentimental value and to celebrate it one last time on Baby's 1st is what many families choose to do. For example, if your baby girl's theme was lambs and the colors pink and yellow, it's a great idea to also use this theme for her 1st Birthday.

If your friends threw you a 'generic' shower and you really didn't have a theme, here are  few ideas!

• Puppies
• Kittens
• Giraffes
• Safari
• Pastel Colors – Baby Blue and Light Green
• Pastel Colors – Lavender and Light Yellow
• Pastel Colors – Light Orange and Baby Blue
• Pastel Colors – Light Pink and Lavender

You can save lots of money by skipping character or licensed party supplies and use generic pastel colors. You can create a beautiful display and not spend much at all! Use coordinated streamers, balloons and place settings for an elegant, sophisticated look.

Now, onto the party favor ideas! If you're on a low budget, consider crafting your own favors or simply offering one purchased favor per person. For larger budgets, it's fun to assemble several favors in one package to give to your guests.

Some easy baby birthday party favors:

• Pastel Jordan's Almonds wrapped in Tulle fabric that matches the theme. Tie with a ribbon and make a little bow. These look really pretty, somewhat expensive and guests love to take them home!
• Miniature baby picture frames with a recent picture of baby in each of them. You can get affordable photo prints at Walmart or simply print them off on photo paper on your printer. Everyone loves baby photos and will enjoy these adorable little sentiments.
• “Baby Rattles” - Purchase large, round lollipops that have see-through cellophane (or make your own!) Tie a little bow at the end of each one and affix a card stock tag that has Baby's name or “Thanks for Celebrating _____'s 1st Birthday!”.
