We have collected decorating tips, cute photos and kid-friendly recipes to keep you entertained at your baby’s first June party and start making memories in the arraiá
Along with Carnival, the June festival is one of the most traditional and important celebrations of Brazilian culture. Who doesn’t have fond memories of the gang, the corn cake, the popcorn, the colorful clothes full of patches? How about, then, to start creating your child’s memories? Baby Home helps you organize an unforgettable first arraiá for your little one. We’ve selected the best decor, clothing and food tips from Pinterest for kids under 2 (and over 6 months, who are already in the food presentation stage).
Decoration
The flags and the hat are simple and very characteristic objects. They are already leaving the scene with an exultant face. Popcorn cake can be made with a Styrofoam base. Then, pop the popcorn and glue them around, with glue.
The corner of the “love tent” is perfect for taking that photo you will keep forever. You can improvise with a wooden or even cardboard box, if you cover it with calico, for example, or cover it with kraft and decorate with flags.
Here the charm is due to the prints and combinations used in the assembly and creation of the flags. Bet on various colors and patterns to create a colorful table. The more colors, the better.
Another idea for using popcorn in the decoration: a basket, with foam inside, a wooden stick and a polystyrene ball, all covered with cracked corn. Ribbons and flags make the ornament more colorful.
Come on corn! Much more characteristic are the glass bottles (which can be reusable packaging) filled with popcorn, around the arrangement. It still helps make the plants firmer, in the center.
snacks
Already cooked and threshed green corn is easier for children to eat. From 6 months onwards, natural food can already be part of your child’s menu – and he usually loves it, you know? Just be careful with the salt. Prefer natural spices. In addition to everything, presented like this, in tubes, it gives an extra charm to the table. Nice, huh?
Can small children eat cornmeal cake? Yes, sir. Provided it is done with some adjustments. Instead of using sugar, for example, you can sweeten applesauce (just cook a peeled apple with two fingers of water and then beat until creamy). Cow’s milk can be substituted for oat milk. Here it is served in individual forms.
Can’t the child eat popcorn? In fact, traditional popcorn made with corn is not. This is because food offers a great choking hazard. According to the Brazilian Society of Pediatrics (SBP), popcorn should only be offered after age 4 – and even then, with supervision. But there is an alternative: sago popcorn. White beans also pop in the pan, but have no lump or peel, that is, they are safer.
The love apple is delicious, but because of the sugar it shouldn’t be offered to young children. However, nothing prevents you from choosing beautiful apples and using them naturally to decorate the table. You can pack, use the bow and stick it on a toothpick, doing without the sugar syrup by coating with the dye (at least for the little ones).
red neck dresses
A charm this typical dress, with checkered print, decorated with ribbons and yo-yo flowers. For the more excited parents, you can buy a simple dress and add accessories, leaving the garment exclusive and tailored for your redneck.
Both the dress and the vest can be customized with decorations in colored fabric. Flags, balloons, bows and bonfires leave the clothes with the face of the arraiá.
The tie and vest transform any outfit your child will wear underneath into a respectable redneck suit! Pieces can be made with fabric scraps, satin ribbons, and lots of whimsy.
