My baby will be one year old in April (I can't believe it!!) and I want to do something beyond the usual gathering, food and gifts. I was thinking of hiring an entertainer (like a clown?) or having it someplace fun (NOT Chuck E. Cheese - more baby friendly) but I can't think of anything. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? What are you all doing for your LO's first birthday? (I am posting in the April 2011 birth club as well, but want to get local ideas if I can )
Thanks!
Re: First birthday party ideas, Saratoga area
For DS's 1st birthday we had it in a private room at a restaurant. We didn't have the space at home for the number of people invited.
For his 2nd birthday, we had it at Tumbling Tykes in Latham. The kids had a blast. This party was about the kids, not the adults.
What about the Saratoga Children's Museum? Or you could hire a children's musician or magician?
I was thinking the Saratoga Children's Museum, too.
Have fun!
