I wanted to revisit this theme. I've done it once or twice before. I just love this idea of little chicks getting dressed up in their pink, frilly dresses for a party. They realised that the eggs they lay are a vital ingredient for cupcakes and they are refusing to lay anymore eggs unless they are invited to every party! FOMO at its finest. They remind me of childhood parties where you would get dressed into your finery at the back of the classroom with all your pals and make a pilgrimage together to the Birthday girl's house for a big celebration. I have vivid memories of this aged 9, all the way back in the mid 80s.
