Share your "Birthday Party" activity. How did it go? How would you improve it?

Have you ever tried an activity that seemed too complicated or confusing for some children to understand? Think through how you would break that lesson into several smaller pieces to allow children to grasp the intended learning more easily. Share the lesson, what you found confusing, and how you would do it differently. Do you notice any patterns in the sorts of activities that you and other teachers find to be overly complicated?
