Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an essential
part of the birthday party. A cake with 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 birthday 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 attempt customarily brings good fortune 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 the
birthday party. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Sending
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 often post birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark 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 quite another! 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 friends at school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
