Children get so excited about their birthdays, there's nothing you can do to make too big of deal out of it! When I was little, I spent the entire month preceeding my birthday counting down the days. Birthdays were second only to Christmas (which was even more fun because everyone celebrated it and I got to give gifts to my mom and dad).
Here's a great way to help your kids get pumped up about their upcoming birthdays; have them make a calendar a week or two before the big day, and let them mark off each day. They can have fun decorating their calander and then choosing a place to hang it (like on the front of the refridgerator) where they will be able to see it and reach it everyday!
