A mommy blogger is going viral for her “unique” birthday party choices for her 1-year-old — and not the good kind of viral…
TikTok influencer Rachel Gibbs made a video on Monday explaining her unorthodox twist for her daughter Hazel‘s first birthday party. She decided it would be different from her son’s, which took place last year. Among the surprising changes causing chatter in her community? The party would take place at 9:30 a.m. and only last an hour and a half, there would only be coffee and snacks, ZERO games!
If you’re thinking this doesn’t sound like a child’s birthday party at all, you aren’t alone! But the way she sees it, she’s giving her friends their whole day back by not making a big thing of it — since the baby won’t remember anyway! We mean, fair enough but then… why still have the party at all by that logic? Well…
Her next big change — and the most controversial by far — was telling her guests to not bring ANY gifts to her daughter! Instead she added that if her guests must bring her baby girl a gift, it should be $5 to donate toward a fund to renovate her yard. She detailed:
Um… Sorry, WHAT?! This is sounding less like an unusual birthday party and more like a VERY unusual grift! $5 for your yard reno project?? That’s not something to ask these people for! They aren’t just there to pay a “you had a baby” tax! They’re coming to actually bring gifts for a child they care about! How cynical!
But it gets worse. She said she doesn’t want the crappy gifts people would buy anyway:
