Family Birthday Traditions To Start This Year

Something that I find most kids want to talk about is their birthdays! Birthdays are a big deal for kids. You might think that kids just love birthdays because they get to have a party, eat cake, and receive gifts, but there’s actually a lot more to it! Birthdays help kids start understanding time and years. Having celebration parties, even if it’s just a small gathering with family, help children feel loved and more connected to their families and help them create positive memories to look back on. Celebrating a birthday is always worth it! In this episode, we are sharing 6 ideas of traditions you can start doing in your family to celebrate and commemorate birthdays. I invited my friend and fellow birthday lover, Christen Clark of the Collide Kids Podcast to join me for this episode. She has so many fantastic ideas! We’re also sharing 4 ways that kids can help their friends and siblings feel special on their birthdays because everyone has a birthday! This episode emphasizes the joy of serving other people and thinking of others in a unique way that will help children think beyond their own birthday times, but really notice others in a positive way! Oh and as you’re listening, just pretend like there are balloons everywhere. You can’t have a birthday without balloons! Listen with your children, and let the conversations flow.
