First Birthday Decorations: Cuddly Friends Picnic

Cuddly friends are a great addition to your child's first birthday party.

• Make this party a picnic by using patchwork quilts on the ground or bright colored blankets.

• Place stuffed animals on the picnic blankets in addition to smaller activity blankets for the babies to play with.

• Theme party supplies and decor to the stuffed animals such as farm animals or an all-time favorite like "Winnie the Pooh."

• Give little baby-safe toys, such as soft cows, as party favors.
