Birthday in a Box

Our children's favourite brothers and sisters!

Our March celebration was awesome! Every month, there is just something so valuable for us to take a way. Read on to see why :)

It's our first time having lunch together with the children. We had ordered Mee Goreng, fried chicken and cracker for the children. 

On our first celebration with them, they were really impatient and always want to go first. We slowly taught them the importance of queuing. We showed them that getting all impatient will only slow the process and no one would be happy about it.

They understood and realised that even if they were the last to get the food, they still get to eat them together. 

That smile :)

After everyone had gotten their food, we prayed together and started tucking in. I saw this and couldn't help but to feel a warmth in my heart. "Love is only real when shared", isn't it?

3. Games

It's game time! As they had just had their fills, we did not want them to have too strenuous activity and so we let them play "Show me your teeth and you lose!"

The children are divided into 2 teams. Both teams would send out a representative to make the poker face. The children at the back would then try to make funny faces to make their opponent's representative laugh. The one who lost would go to the back and send another person up. The team who ran out of people lose! 

"You showed your teeth!"

4. Singing Session

Before we went ahead to teach them new songs, we get the team that lost in the earlier game to perform in front the songs that we had taught them the previous celebration.

They listen attentively!

We taught them Barney song, you know the "I love you, you love me, we are happy family"

"With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you. Won't you say you love me too."

The big brothers and sisters are showing love to each other too, because we are one big family :)

5. Birthday Celebration

Our March babies!

Cakes sponsored by @Ladyscake

Sometime I really wish I can read minds. I wonder what went through their minds when they stood in front of their fellow friends, celebrating their birthdays. I want to know so bad, but I do not wish to ask them. Why? I don't know why too.

There are so much things that I want to do for them, but then there is so little that I can. Nevertheless, I will still do my best. With a great team like what I have now, is probably the greatest gift I received as a start off of this project.

Happy kids with the presents prepared with love by @ladyscake too, the one who sponsored the cake monthly. 

Time to give out the goodies from our BOX!
