Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an essential
part of the birthday celebration. A 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 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 breath customarily brings good fortune 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 inherent part of the
birthday party. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Posting
birthday greeting cards started in England about
100 years ago. Cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we often post birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has since become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming familiar. Not remembering a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! 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 schoolmates from school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
