HOW TO PLAY
1

Seat the birthday child in a highchair with a bib on, with the small cake placed in front of them.

2

Guests count down together from ten before saying 'go.'

3

Start a timer and let the child explore, smash, and taste the cake freely.

4

Guests guess ahead of time how long it will take the child to take their first real bite, writing guesses on slips.

5

Reveal whose guess was closest once the child takes that first bite, and enjoy taking plenty of photos throughout.
