Hints & Tips


What are the best 1st birthday wishes?

You would think that writing 1st birthday wishes for the 1-year-old boys and girls of family and friends is easy to do, but it isn't. And there's a very good reason for the difficulty: your 1st birthday wishes may be focusing on the wrong recipient.

When we think about writing 1st birthday wishes, our thoughts naturally go straight to the birthday girl or boy, not the parents of this wonderful child. But that's not the right approach. It's not the child who will be reading your 1st birthday wishes. 

One-year-old kids, unless they're geniuses, cannot read, so you should really focus on Mom and Dad. As soon as you start checking out the 1st birthday wishes on this page, it's very important to ask yourself this question: will Mom and Dad like this 1st birthday message?

If you want to make it a little easier on yourself, pick 1st birthday wishes that best express just how cute, sweet, playful and unique this baby is to you. You can't go wrong with flattery.

Every parent likes to hear that their child is the belle or beau of the ball. And a birthday card with flattering 1st birthday wishes is the best way to let them know.

With your 1st birthday wishes, you can also be funny, poking fun at all the changes junior has brought to the lives of his or her parents. A little laughter never hurt anyone, especially mothers and fathers who may still be deprived of sleep or laughter (or both).

My favorite 1st birthday wishes have a simple, yet deep message: enjoy your life from the beginning. That is probably the nicest wish you can give a baby just starting out in life, even if he or she can't understand a word you've written.


What should I write in a birthday card for a one year old?

You have many examples of 1st birthday wishes on this page. If you want to add some one-year-old toddler milestones to your birthday card, check out this article from the people who brought us the What to Expect family of books.
