Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an important
part of the birthday celebration. A cake with candles
is not just for youngsters. It is traditional to place a
total of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the birthday cake. Numeral candles are popular when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lighted for presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one effort customarily brings good luck for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday custom. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of the
birthday festivity. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Posting
birthday cards started in The UK about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we often mail birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has now become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming familiar. Forgetting a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the birthday card even if its
late.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and relatives would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include classmates from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
