Birthday Trains

To make a Christmas Birthday truly memorable create a ritual each year that helps the whole family remember their birthday. Classic Birthday Trains are a wonderful way to mark a birthday each year. The Birthday Trains have been designed to create memories of children’s birthdays, so precious and special in those early years of their lives. They’re the most beautiful ceramic figurines drawing on enchanting themes: the Ballerina, Strongman and Pierrot, the create fascination and enchantment. They come with metal numbers and candle holders, and can be used instead of a cake, or alongside it. Over time they become a lovely keepsake that if cared for can be passed down for the next little one in the family.

For children, making sure they know their birthday is a separate celebration is what counts (and that they get the same number of presents as if it were the middle of the year 🙂 … ultimately though, it’s the love we give our children, and the time we spend focusing on their lives that they’ll remember.

What kind of things do you do to keep Birthdays that are close to Christmas extra special?
