Let me hear what you do for your kids!
Do you do anything beyond having a cake?
This year, my children's birthdays are on weekdays which aren't convenient times to have grandparents over. I made cupcakes on my daughter's actual birthday (complete with a candle for her) and made a cake for the Saturday after when we had family over in the afternoon. This is a tradition I want to carry forward; I love baking so it's an easy one for me to do both cupcakes and a cake. My DH took her birthday off work and has arranged the same for our son's (this Wednesday). We've also always got a helium foil balloon for birthdays.
I'd love to hear what others do. I want my kids to have fun with birthdays. ink:
