Birthday Circle

At Owen's school, they celebrate birthday circles by inviting the parents to visit and talk about each year that the child has been on the earth and show a photo for each trip around the sun. Owen walked around the ellipse holding a globe and we talked about the activities he liked to do. Afterwards, the kids asked him some questions and we were surprised by some of the answers.

Q: What's your favorite color?
Red.

Q: What's your favorite land animal?
Wolf.
