Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday celebration. A birthday cake with candles
is not just for youngsters. It is customary to place a
number of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the birthday cake. Numeral candles are accepted when the number
of candles exceed 10. The candles are all lighted for display. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one effort customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.

Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday custom. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of any
birthday festivity. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renditions over the years.
Sending
birthday greeting cards started in England about
one hundred years ago. Cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we sometimes send birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has now become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Not remembering a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the card even if its
late.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and family would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include classmates at school.

at these parties.
