Have you met a baby that doesn’t love balloons? I have not! If you’ve been holding off on letting your little one play with balloons, then their first birthday is the perfect time to introduce this fun party decoration. A balloon themed birthday party is easy and fun for kids! Here’s all the details on how to have a balloon themed birthday: decorations, food and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Deciding to Have a Balloon Themed Birthday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Baby Brother’s birthday was inspired by the book A Tale of Five Balloons<\/a>, namely because he: loves balloon, loves popping balloons (what happen to the first four balloons in the book), and likes to wave goodbye (what happens to the fifth balloon). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So maybe it was a stretch\u2026but it gave me a little something to go off of for our decorations and everything came out just perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food for a Balloon Birthday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We kept the party small and low key: pizza, veggies, fruit, cookies, popcorn and cake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making a balloon shaped cake is so easy, just trim off a little from a round cake to make the knob at the bottom. Add a pipe cleaner for the string. Done and done. Our cake was MSPI friendly cake<\/a> (dairy-free soy-free cake).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Activities for a Balloon Birthday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I made a little art station for the kid-guests with coloring pages photocopied from the book<\/a> and stickers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And as usual we had our play pen ball pit out<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But most of all we had lots of balloons to play with<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And a pi\u00f1ata! You can’t have a birthday party in Mexico <\/a>without a pi\u00f1ata!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decorations for a Balloon Birthday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The only crafting I did was a balloon name banner and putting up his monthly pictures (that will be reused in his baby book). Baby Brother loved his cake! And the pi\u00f1ata!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also bought balloon sticks with cups<\/a> to hold up the balloons on the main food table. I stuck them in some disposable coffee cups we had hanging around. You could also easily stick them up in a planter, or a bowl of pebbles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a great time and most importantly Baby Brother loved the attention, the cake, the gifts and the festive atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you celebrated a birthday with your little one yet? How much do they love balloons?!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
