My birthday is October 30th so I've always been one of the younger kids in class. I loved having a late birthday because it meant I could stay young just a little bit longer! I don't think it affected me academically, but because I was already short and had a late birthday, I was often one of the shortest kids in class. Fine for a girl, but boys probably wouldn't be too happy about being the smallest.

Charlie was born on Dec 10 so he's definitely going to be one of the youngest in his class. I'd prefer that he be the oldest than the youngest, but I guess he'll have to play with the hand he's been given!

Would you rather be the oldest or youngest one in your class? What about for your LO?
