How do babies celebrate months?

Answered by Phillip Nicastro

Babies may not celebrate their monthly milestones in the same way as adults celebrate their birthdays, but there are several fun and creative ideas to mark each month of a baby’s life.

1. Kid’s Monthly Birthday Age Block Photo Set: This is a popular and adorable way to capture your baby’s growth. Each month, get a photo of your child with a set of numbers corresponding to their age placed next to them. You can use wooden blocks, foam letters, or even digital numbers in the photo. It’s a great way to document their growth and create a beautiful keepsake.

2. Balloon Baby: Fill a room with balloons in different colors and sizes to represent each month of your baby’s life. Take photos or simply let your little one enjoy playing with the balloons. It creates a festive and colorful atmosphere to celebrate their monthly milestones.

3. Magnet or Felt Ages above Baby’s Head: Create a visual representation of your baby’s age by using magnets or felt numbers placed above their head in monthly photos. This simple yet effective idea allows you to easily track their growth and look back at the pictures in the future.

4. Baby Bear: Dress your baby in a cute bear onesie or costume and set up a cozy and themed photoshoot. You can add props like a stuffed animal bear, a picnic blanket, or a forest backdrop. This idea adds a playful and whimsical touch to each monthly celebration.

5. Baby in Basket: Place your baby in a beautifully decorated basket with age-appropriate props and accessories. You can use flowers, toys, or themed items to create a unique setup for each monthly photo. It’s a gentle and charming way to capture their growth.

6. Calendar Queen/King: Create a personalized calendar with your baby’s monthly photos. Each month, dress them up as a king or queen and use props like a crown and a scepter. Take a photo with the calendar page displaying their age for that month. It’s a creative way to document their growth and have a calendar filled with precious memories.

7. Book it Down: Choose a favorite children’s book and take a monthly photo of your baby reading or holding the book. You can track their progress by capturing their growing interest in books over time. It’s a sweet way to celebrate their love for reading and literature.

8. Monthly Sticker: Use monthly milestone stickers or decals that can be placed on your baby’s clothing or on a backdrop for each monthly photo. These stickers often come with cute designs and numbers to represent the age. It’s an easy and convenient way to commemorate each month.

Remember, the most important thing is to have fun and create lasting memories with your baby. These ideas can be personalized and adapted to suit your preferences and your baby’s personality. Enjoy celebrating each month and watching your little one grow!
