The importance of celebrating your children's birthdays... it's when your child came into the world!

Birthdays are the most important day of the year, and therefore, they should be celebrated accordingly.

They have a whole life ahead of them

Even as adults, a birthday means having one more year, which perhaps for some is not the happiest day, but for children, it is a day when they reach a new milestone filled with new opportunities and more possibilities. It's the first day of a new step. Children have much to achieve and many dreams to fulfill, and the more years they turn, the more opportunities they will have to achieve it.

For children, their birthday is the most exciting day of the year, definitely more important than any other holiday. They count months, weeks, days, hours, and minutes until this special day arrives, and they ask their mother and father how long until it comes. Seeing this anticipation and impatience as parents, we cannot remain neutral; we want to make this special day the best we can for our child. But why is it so important to celebrate children's birthdays?

It boosts self-esteem

You may teach your child to be generous and caring towards others, but it's not wrong to let them be a little selfish once a year and be the center of the universe on that day. It's a great feeling for children to see all their friends coming for him/her on a special day, with bags of gifts and wishing them a happy birthday. Children feel loved by others, and it's a special day because they came into the world.

It's fun

It's a party, and all parties have to be fun. Children love fun, and the party is centered around them. There will be balloons, music, songs, games... It's a wonderful time for any child!

Friendships

You might want to invite close friends or the whole class, depending on your child's personality, but parties help children socialize in large groups, something that is not so easy on other occasions. Socializing in large groups is very different from having a conversation with a friend. You have to consider all the people around you and avoid whispering to your friend or leaving someone out of the group. Children learn to be social and interact with others in a relaxed environment like this.

Memories that will last a lifetime

Birthdays will be great memories for children. Sometimes they are able to remember every detail, and this makes parents feel very good because they were the creators of that moment. It's worth the effort so that later the children have this memory. Although it's good to know that the party doesn't need to be excessively lavish, what matters for children is a gathering with their friends, a snack... and don't forget the music and games!

Do you celebrate your children's birthdays? It's also a moment of emotional bonding not only with their friends but also with you and any other family member who attends this special event for your children.
