Birthday
notes of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday celebration. A birthday cake with candles
is not just for youngsters. It is traditional to place a
number of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the birthday cake. Numeral candles are popular when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lighted for presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one breath customarily brings good luck for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday custom. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an integral part of any
birthday celebration. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in England about
one hundred years ago. Cards were often sent off as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we often mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has now become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Not remembering a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the birthday card even if its
belated.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and family would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include classmates at school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
