Birthday
points of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
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 cake. Numeral candles are accepted when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lighted for display. People make wishes when blowing
out the birthday candles on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one effort 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 integral part of any
birthday festivity. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Posting
birthday greeting cards started in Great Britain about
one hundred years ago. Cards were often sent off as an
"apology" when you couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we frequently mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has since become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Forgetting a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the birthday card even if its
tardy.
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 classmates from school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
