Having my 'cake' and eating it too

For my little preschool friends, everyday is a party.  Everyday, we three teachers, host a small gathering for 13 young minds who are trying to learn and play together.  And just what does every party need... cake.  My little friends are experts on making birthday cake.  These delicious 'cakes' are made out of everything from blocks to pegs to sand. Today, play-dough was their medium of choice. The 'cake' seen here, is a two part birthday cake, made especially for me.

The first being a "purple leaf that is grape" and the other one, is "just cake" cake.  The leaf cake, I was told, "was special because it had a candle on it."  My little friends go all out for these daily birthday's, singing the birthday song and cutting the cake to share with others.  As seen here:

Who ever said "You can't have your cake and eat it too", obviously never worked in a preschool classroom.  Not only can I enjoy cake everyday, but I never have to worry about any calories.
