Aside from the basics of choosing a date, time, number of guests and getting the invites and party preps together, there are so many meaningful ways to celebrate.

Décor: When planning décor, take into consideration the baby nursery décor and find ways to use items that can be repurposed once baby arrives. 

Keepsake activities: Choose a few different craft options for your guests to participate in such as wishes for baby, a thumbprint canvas guest book including the thumb prints of all the guests, or a baby headband for a little girl.

Cards: Encourage your guests to make a card for each of your child’s birthdays. Once guests arrive, they draw a number and take part in a craft activity to create a card that will be given to the child for the corresponding year. Every year, there will be a special card for them that was created before they were even born.
