candles

Ever since my birthday, Sim really wants to blow out candles. We have these little books that feature a single number such as 2 and then every page in the book shows two objects, including a birthday cake with two candles. We have 10 of these books and Sim goes through them all and blows out the candles in each book.

My mom's birthday was this past weekend and both kids were thrilled to see a cake with candles. I bought sparkling trick candles in the hopes of giving the kids more blowing fun. Ro was a little taken aback when they didn't go out. A spark pops and then they relight. They're kinda cool.
