This week’s theme over on Instagram is creating simple and magical birthday traditions!

I also shared a beautiful Waldorf-inspired Birthday Verse to say the night before the child’s birthday:

When I am tucked into bed tonight
And I turn off my nightlight
I’ll be ____ years old.

And in the morning when I rise
There will be a sweet birthday surprise
______ kisses when I wake
______ candles on my cake!

Below are some simple open-ended birthday gift ideas. If you’re looking for more ideas and product recommendations head to my Open-Ended Toys Amazon List to take the stress out of planning!
I also shared one of our family favourite birthday cake recipes made with simple, real-food ingredients. Head to Instagram to grab the recipe! 

I hope these ideas give you the freedom and calm you deserve when planning those special celebrations.

Happy Birthday to those celebrating!

    Hi Meagan, I just found your website and I love your philosophy, integrity and content. Do you have any suggestions for birthday story for an adopted child? (adopted at 2 y.o turning 5y.o in 2021).

    Thank you!
