But that's exactly what you did! You just counted which fraction of all kids is boys. You threw away that this is about pairs of kids, about april 1 on which one of them has their birthday and is a boy, and we want to know the sex of the other one. You already simplified by applying symmetry reductions. You could have just done print(1/2) and proclaimed that the output was 0.5 which therefore must be the solution.
