7 Fun Ways to Celebrate Baby's First Birthday Virtually

If you are planning a virtual first birthday party for your little one, do not be bummed by a lack of traditional elements. Instead, be inspired by the opportunity to celebrate in a new way.  

Believe it or not, there are myriad pros to a virtual first birthday party, from a lack of cleanup to a lower chance of overstimulation—and the ensuing crankiness—for the guest of honour. Your baby has plenty of years ahead to run around and get messy with friends at birthday parties. This year, if you are celebrating the first birthday online, we have got some cute ideas to help make it extra special, just like this first year of life has been.

You might not be having friends and family over to celebrate, but that does not mean Baby’s big day needs to be bland. Throw all your decorating efforts into setting up a gorgeous table or sweet corner of the home for Baby with cookies, balloons, photos from their first year, themed details, and of course—a big ol' cake. Dress your little one to match and take lots of photos! When you FaceTime with family and friends, make sure your handiwork shines as an elegant backdrop to the call.
