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

Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday custom. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of any
birthday celebration. Numerous vocalists have also recorded

"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we often send birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming popular. Not remembering a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the card even if its
tardy.
