Jun 20 (NHK) - Tokyo's Ueno Zoo has held an early birthday celebration for twin panda cubs. The male, Xiao Xiao, and female, Lei Lei, were born at the zoo on June 23 last year.
On Monday, 14 groups of parents and children chosen by lottery attended the event. They watched videos of the cubs' first year and wrote messages on birthday cards.
Both pandas weighed over 27 kilograms as of June 13, or about 200 times their birthweight of about 120 grams.
The weather was hot and humid, so the cubs were not very active.
