A first birthday is a fantastic time to start a yearly family tradition, and this idea from Mama. Papa. Bubba. is perfect. Simply paint a small canvas a fun color, then add your baby's handprint (or footprint!) in a contrasting color. Create a new canvas each year and watch your kiddo grow before your eyes.
