Shared Birthdays

A very thoughtful local family brought us the idea of sharing a child’s birthday. The parent said, “My child already has everything he needs. We want to have a party, and we know that our friends will want to give presents. We do not need twenty new games. Is there anything you need?” This seed started the “share your birthday” idea. Kids still have gifts to open, but they can designate something to share, or share their whole birthday.
