School Celebration

I really Love the School my children attend.
They do a great job on many levels but I think the
way they celebrate a child's birthday is kinda cool.
First, they welcome the siblings to take part.
then they give the child the earth and have him/her
walk around the sun (4 times since Bai turned 4)

The sun is represented by a candle and the months of the year
surround it as she walks.
They also have a fake cake and they light candles & sing.

Bai tried to blow them out 3 or 4 times so the teacher
asked if her siblings wanted to help her:)
The birthday child also gets to choose a friend to sit
with them and kids seriously campaign for this;
birthday friends start thinking about this months before....
see the second part of this post to see who Bai choose!!
