The Birthday Book
Have you ever had a "brain freeze" when it came time to celebrating your child's birthday? The Birthday Book has many ideas to help you through those moments. There are creative ideas for birthday parties and unique ideas for a "birthday time capsule." The "time capsule" ideas are simple and cost effective and ones that anyone can do. Years down the road it will be exciting to bring out the memories of previous years.
Did you know that an ordinary pencil can write 45,000 words or draw a line 35 miles long? I also learned why we blow out the candles on the cake! These are some of the unusual facts listed in The Birthday Book.
We have ice cream but how about roasted spiders or adzuki beans? You can introduce your children to new foods from other cultures.
Tina Forrester and Sheryl Shapiro have also added customs from countries around the world. They explain where some of our birthday customs come from. This is an interesting book for young children and gives some neat ideas for parents of young children.
