The creation of a new life is a time of great celebration; a perfect excuse to throw a party for family and friends. Working as a great means to introduce the little one to everybody, such events will be remembered for a long time and can be a great opportunity for new parents to gain support and advice as they go about the often tricky (and tiring!) but rewarding process of developing this new life.

A big, traditional part of any party – the one item that signals that the event is indeed a party – is the inclusion of new baby cakes. Able to be customised by their shape, colouring flavouring and decoration, it’s obvious to see why cakes have become that expected centrepiece of a party.

Ideas For Celebrating A New Baby’s Birth

Of course, a party is only one of many activities you can host to celebrate your new arrival; so here is some tips on hosting that party, plus a few more ideas to celebrate the arrival of a new baby:

• Birthing Parties – You’ve heard of a baby shower; a pre-birth party for the expectant mum which is attended by friends and/or experienced mothers? To celebrate the safe arrival of their little one, many people host a birthing party, or ‘arrival shower’. After being born, the family and friends of the mother would be dying to see the baby and a low-key celebration such as an arrival shower would help to introduce him/her to everyone all at once. Unlike a baby shower, you won’t have to participate in any activities/games – people will be too busy doting over the baby anyway!

• Plant a Tree – In many cultures around the world, trees have been planted for hundreds of years to celebrate the arrival of a new baby. Being the other form of life on our planet, the poetry of this is that the tree will grow in time with the baby – offering a poignant sight in years to come. This practice is starting to become more and more widespread in our own culture – and with trees helping the planet to create more oxygen, it’s great for the environment too!

• Receiving Personal Messages – A popular activity to undertake after the birth of a new baby is for the family and friends of the parents to create blessings and messages of love and/or advice for when they grow up. People may include images with their messages – and thanks to today’s technology, you can easily create videos, which offer a window into the past for the child when they view it many years later. This is an activity that can be undertaken at your arrival shower, Christening or just in general.

• Create A Parenting Scrapbook – Having your first baby is exciting for all parents but for some, it could also prove understandably daunting. This is why the family/friends of the parents create ‘parenting scrapbooks’ that are packed with helpful hints, tips and stories from fellow parents, drawing upon their own experiences. It doesn’t need to be serious – it can be take a fun look at parenting and contain lots of messages of support and love. Like the baby’s personal messages, you can look back on this book in years to come (if only for inspiration for when you need to write a message for a first-time parent)!

• Personalising New Baby Cakes – Whether you are indeed hosting an arrival shower, a small gathering or even the baby’s first birthday party; then a cake is an obvious must! Personalising the cake with the baby’s name and age would not only set the personal tone needed at a party but in years to come, the cake will act as a reminder of the event – handy for when your little one is looking back on the photos/videos of the day.
