How do you celebrate baby’s first Valentine’s Day?
The age of your baby at Valentine’s Day is going to determine how much you’ll want to do for his first Valentine’s Day.
If you’re still healing from childbirth or still figuring out breastfeeding, your holiday is going to look a lot different than if your baby is nearing his first birthday.
Another determining factor is going to be the weather. Families in the north are doing their best to keep warm, while southern babies may be able to get out and enjoy some sunshine.
Regardless of age or location, here are some easy things you can do for your baby’s first Valentine’s Day:
- Select a Valentine’s Day outfit. You’ll find some super cute outfits in this guide to Valentine gifts for babies. Choose comfy pajamas or some fancy duds. For my baby’s first Valentines’ Day, I did a nice outfit (in this case, that means clean) with a simple first Valentine’s Day bib.
- Take a Valetine’s Day photo. You can set up a professional photo shoot or go the DIY route. While a professional photographer may be able to capture nicer photos, you might not have the money right now or you just might not be up to leaving the house. That’s okay, you can easily capture some heart-warming pics right in your own home.
- Give a Valentine’s gift. Valentine’s Day is a special day of year to show your love for someone. And giving Valentine gifts to babies is a great way to start a fun new tradition with your little one. Throughout the years, they will love knowing someone truly cares about them.
- Do something fun. As I said, the weather can really mess up your Valentine’s Day plans, so I’m not going to offer any one specific thing to do on this holiday. But come up with your own special thing. Maybe it’s a dinner out with you and baby. Or watching a movie with some hot chocolate. Use these early years to come up with special ways to celebrate this holiday for years to come.
- Make time for snuggles. Whatever else happens on your baby’s first Valentine’s Day, make sure you get in some special baby snuggles. They don’t stay this little for long, so enjoy every minute of it!
