Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday celebration. A birthday cake with candles
is not just for kids. It is customary to place a
number of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the 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 officially published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of the
birthday party. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renderings through out the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in England about
one hundred years ago. Cards were often sent as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we sometimes mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Not remembering 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 a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include friends from school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
