Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an important
part of the birthday party. A cake with candles
is not just for kids. It is traditional to place a
total 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 presentation. 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.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
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 renditions through out the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in Great Britain about
a hundred years ago. Originally cards were often sent as an
"apology" when you couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we sometimes mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has now become a multi-million
dollar business. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Forgetting a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the birthday card even if its
belated.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and family members would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include friends at school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
