She is busy adding the candles to her cake.
She is singing Happy Birthday.
At small group time each student was given a piece of play dough, rolling pin, and some crayons to use as candles. I started out by telling them that we are going to have a birthday party and they needed to help me make the birthday cake. The students then rolled our the play dough into their birthday cake and added the candles. We sang happy birthday and then the students blew out the candles. I had the student count the number of candles in their cake and asked if that was how old they were. Some students used the same number of candles as their age and others used more candles.
