We don't normally celebrate half birthdays at our house but Maya's preschool does for kids who have summer birthdays when school is not in session. Maya is one of those kids so yesterday was her big day, at least as far as the school was concerned. She turns 3.5 on Saturday and her preschool made such a big deal of it. It really was pretty fun.
For birthday treats, we made chocolate cupcakes decorated with one holiday candycorn per Maya's request. When we arrived at school, we found streamers hanging in the doorway to her classroom and various play birthday cakes and other birthday toys were set up at one of the tables. She got to be "Kid of the Day," received a birthday sticker and the kids sang happy birthday to her when she passed out her treats. And, when I picked her up she was wearing a 1/2 birthday crown. (Of course, she wouldn't let me take her picture!)

We MUST celebrate half birthdays because I strategically gave birth to my children two and a half years apart to the day...one on June 23 and one on December 23. Half birthdays are fun!
