We have made cakes, iced our cakes, decorated the classroom, sung happy birthday lots and lots of times, danced, wrapped presents and finished the week off by having a birthday party. The children really enjoyed writing their shopping lists of things we would need for the party, making paper chains to decorate the classroom and taking party bags home at the end! What a fun topic!
