I think it's a GREAT way to explain that day, as something that look foreward to yearly. The time that they take to pick the rocks they're going to use and putting them in to piles just waiting. They protect their little stack of rocks because it's like a birthday to them, they get to grow up a little. And it's also a great way to explain desensitizing that they see all the other people do it yearly and it's something that they look foreward to participating in one day, to be able to pull for their family if they make it to being old enough to get to.
