points of interest:
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 kids. It is customary to place a
total 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 lighted for display. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one attempt customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of the
birthday celebration. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in England about
100 years ago. Originally cards were often sent off as an
"apology" when you couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we sometimes send birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming more familiar. Forgetting a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the card even if its
late.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and family would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include schoolmates at school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
