First Birthday Time Capsule Kit: Guest Cards, Letter Pages and Seal Until 18

This 14-page printable kit turns a first birthday party into a time capsule that stays sealed until the child turns 18. Each guest fills in a card with a wish, a prediction and some advice, and the cards go in a box along with a few things from the day.

Inside: a table sign that explains the capsule to guests (page 2); twelve guest cards for grown-ups, four to a page (pages 3 to 5); eight guest cards for children, with a drawing box and space for a grown-up to write down what the child says (pages 6 and 7); a two-part "The world when you turned one" to fill in with prices, news, songs and everyday things (pages 8 and 9); a parents' letter page with starter lines (page 10); a checklist of what to put in the box (page 11); a big box label, two small labels and two seal strips (page 12); an opening-day page for the person who is 18 (page 13); and a party plan with a list for ticking off the guests who wrote a card (page 14).

How to use it: print on US Letter or A4, cut the cards with scissors (a grown-up job), set out the sign by the door, and seal the box together at the end of the party. The kit leaves the dates, names and prices blank for you to fill in.
