Planning on having a buffet style table of food is one of the best ways to keep your guest feeling relaxed as they can socialize and eat at the same time.
Keep the buffet food stuff to tasty but simple menus. You should plan on a variety of different sandwiches, hotdogs, pizza slices, burgers, fried chicken pieces, salads, bread rolls and lots of tasty cakes, sweets, and drinks.
For added enjoyment having lots of brightly colored balloons strung around the site of the birthday will encourage your one year to look around at the various items that can be seen.
