A child's 1st birthday is a joyous occasion, which lives in the memories of the proud parents forever. However, the majority of kids won't remember anything about this fine day, but do enjoy looking at the birthday photos later on.
Here's one way to make this special 1st birthday occasion into a stylish memento. Instead of putting these pictures into a photo album along with all the others, buy a special photo album dedicated to this first year of life, culminating in the 1st birthday party. This also makes a terrific gift idea to present to the parents.
So what goes into this keepsake photo album? Most parents takes hundreds of pictures of their children in the first year. Begin your commemorative 1st birthday party photo album with all of the pictures you've taken since birth " consider the size of the photo album which will accommodate the number of pictures! Try to arrange them in sequence, which is easy if you've dated them on the back. The 1st birthday party photos go at the end.
If you're wielding the camera, look sharp! These photos can be treasures! Two photos of our daughter's 1st birthday has given us all plenty of laughter over the years. We seated her in her high chair, birthday hat and all, placing the birthday cake in front of her. We captured her look of shock and delight on film as she viewed this chocolate concoction. She promptly embraced the cake " with her face and hands! Following a sampling, she sat up to show her chocolate covered face, smiling as big as you please. Lucky we'd already sung 'Happy Birthday' blown out and removed the candle before she got to the cake! These pictures are the standouts of that 1st birthday party!
Keep a log of all the gifts and gift givers and include this information along with a photo of each gift. As kids get older, particularly around the age of seven or eight, they seem to enjoy knowing who attended their 1st birthday party and were thoughtful enough to give them a gift.
Don't throw that wrapping paper and ribbon away! Cut small squares of each wrapping and a bit of ribbon, giving each a place in your 1st birthday party album. When you think how much styles, designs and materials change over a 20 year period, these little pieces of 'antiquity' will provide a peek back in time when your child's all grown up.
Last, but not least, is the birthday outfit. This is usually very special and doesn't get worn out. While it won't fit in your photo album, this is an outfit you'll want to save. Sure, you'll have photos, but there's nothing like the real article. You might want to wrap it in gift paper and use double-sided tape to attach it to the front or back of the album cover.
Now you've got a stylish 1st birthday party memento that can make a beautiful 21st birthday party gift. Think of the pleasure your grandchildren will derive from this lovely 'antique'. - 22783
