I did research on the following countries: Argentina, Mexico,panama, Guatemala, and Peru and learned that in Argentina on someones birthday they get their earlobes pulled. In Mexico 15th birthdays are the special ones. I learned that in panama people sing happy birthday in English and Spanish. In Guatemala the activities are scheduled and in Peru they wear hata and kive out goody bags with pins. I learned some Spanish words like cumpleaños. I contributed to my group project by helping to make the templates for people to make crowns. I liked Making crowns as a birthday activity because i
t is something that we ussually don't do for birthdays. There was nothing I did not like

compare/contrast to the U.S
in the us we don't do performances but sometimes we have clowns perform.
some birthdays in the us have piñatas. and sixteen is our special year.
In the U.S happy birthday is usually sung in only one language. and Their aren't usually 100 people.
Some birthdays do have scheduled birthdays.
It is about the same kids will where hats and give out goody bags but not ussually pins.
