Share 分享:

Here are two videos to share about birthdays in China. 

Video #1: Chinese cakes are usually more like sponge cakes and use a whipped cream type of frosting. What else do you notice about this cake that might be different than what you’re used to? Ask your family members what their favorite kind of cake is.

 

Video #2: Have you ever had a surprise party for your birthday? How did it feel? Is there someone your family could do  a birthday surprise for?
