Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday celebration. A cake with lit 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 cake. Numeral candles are popular when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lit for display. People make wishes when blowing
out the birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one effort customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday custom. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of the
birthday party. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various interpretations through out the years.
Mailing
birthday greeting cards started in England about
100 years ago. Originally cards were often posted as an
"apology" when you couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we frequently post birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has now become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming more familiar. Not remembering a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the birthday card even if its
tardy.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and relatives would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include schoolmates at school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
