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 customary to place a
number of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the birthday cake. Numeral candles are accepted when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lighted for presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out the birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one attempt customarily brings good luck for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of any
birthday festivity. Numerous singers have also recorded
various interpretations over the years.
Posting
birthday cards started in England about
100 years ago. Cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we sometimes post birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has now become a multi-million
dollar business. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming popular. Forgetting a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the card even if its
belated.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and relatives would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include classmates at school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
