Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday festivity. A birthday 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 cake. Numeral candles are accepted when the number
of candles exceed 10. The candles are all lit for display. People make wishes when blowing
out the birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one breath customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of the
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Mailing
birthday greeting cards started in Great Britain about
a hundred years ago. Originally cards were often mailed as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we frequently mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming more familiar. Not remembering a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the birthday card even if its
tardy.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and family would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include schoolmates from school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
