Winnie the Pooh invitations can be purchased at party supply stores, but if you want something special, create a homemade card. Use yellow card stock to cut out a bear shape. Glue a printed piece of paper with party information on it to the front of the card. You can embellish the card with Winnie the Pooh stickers or leave it plain.
Decorations

The Hundred Acre Woods is a colorful place. Use streamers and balloons to decorate the party venue. Large card board cutouts of Winnie the Pooh can be taped to the walls. Set Winnie the Pooh stuffed animals on tables and chairs, which will bring a touch whimsy to the party venue. A stuffed Pooh doll makes an appropriate centerpiece, or choose a balloon bouquet in Winnie the Pooh colors such as yellow and red. Honey pots are another theme appropriate centerpiece.

Cake

Choose a professional Winnie the Pooh cake design at a licensed bakery or choose to create your own Winnie the Pooh first birthday cake. A sheet cake frosted in green icing is a good base for a Winnie the Pooh cake. Use a small Winnie the Pooh character figurines as cake toppers for the cake. Add some of the other characters from the Winnie the Pooh stories to the cake top for added color and decoration. Small plastic trees, available at craft stores, can be clustered at cake corners to represent the Hundred Acres woods. Use a number "1" candle to indicate that the party is a first birthday.
Favors
-
A small Winnie the Pooh doll or figure can make an appropriate themed favor. Other possible favors include local honey in an attractive container with a label thanking the guest for her attendance or honey dipper with a ribbon and small "Thank you for coming" card attached to it. Small goody bags filled with candy and stickers with a Winnie the Pooh motif are nice treats for young children. Avoid honey treats for young children. Remember to consult a physician before giving a young child honey.
