The big birthday bash!
On February 15th Jennifer, one of the girls in my class, celebrated her 4th birthday. On the kids birthday I always try to have a little party to celebrate their big day and make them feel special. I made her a birthday cake topped with trick candles! It was so fun to watch her blow out her candles, blow out her candles, and continue to blow out her candles. The kids all started to get involved in blowing out the candles. I decided to pass on eating any cake at that point. Her house parents had given me a pinata and candy for her birthday so after eating cake we had some fun beating the pinata. I think that it was the biggest pinata I have ever seen. Really it was almost as big as my kids, and stronger than them too. They hit the pinata for a long time, and it would not break so finally I ripped it, then there was a l
ot of screaming, hitting, and pulling as the kids rushed forward in pursuit of what you would have thought was only one piece of candy. That had a lot of fun. The only problem is that almost everyday I get asked if we are going to go hit the pinata. They seem to think that it is an activity that should be added to their daily schedule!
