Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday party. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for children. It is traditional to place a
number of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the cake. Numeral candles are accepted when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lit for display. People make wishes when blowing
out the birthday candles on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one effort customarily brings good luck for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of any
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various interpretations over the years.
Posting
birthday greeting cards started in Great Britain about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we sometimes post birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has since become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online electronic cards 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
tardy.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and family members would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include schoolmates at school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
