Teddy Bear
Invitations
Here’s one of the cutest 1st birthday party ideas for teddy bear invitations. Dress your baby up in a baby bear costume. Take their photo, print it out and add something like: “A “beary” special baby Michael is turning 1. Please join us for some birthday fun!” You could even ask everyone to bring their favourite teddy bear to the party.
Another idea is to cut card stock into teddy bear shapes and put pink ribbon for a bow on the top of the teddy bear’s head for a girl’s invitation, and a blue ribbon around the teddy bear’s neck for a boy’s invitation. You can get creative and remember to keep an invitation for the scrapbook. Your child will be too young to remember the party, but later in life will really enjoy looking back.
Decorations
Here are some great teddy bear 1st birthday party ideas for decorations:
Put out lots of stuffed teddy bears around the party area (you could also use them as table centerpieces). Draw on poster board and colored papers a bunch of paw prints and put them all around the house. If you have a sidewalk leading to the house, use colored chalk to draw more paw prints a few steps before the front door.
Put a cave area in the corner of the party room. Using rolls of brown paper works very well for this activity. Attach the paper cave to the wall or furniture in the room. Place all types of toys in the cave and let the babies and kids explore.
More teddy bear 1st birthday party ideas for setting the scene may include honey jars around the party area and buzzing paper bees which you can hang from the ceiling using fishing line.
Ask everyone to bring their own teddy bear and join the fun. For an quick decoration idea you can attach helium filled balloons to each bear.
You can also get your birthday party guests feeling special by pinning a large brown pompom to their “tail”, and giving them brown bear ears to wear.
