Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an important
part of the birthday festivity. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for kids. 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 10. The candles are all lighted for display. 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 relatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of any
birthday party. Numerous singers have also recorded
various renditions over the years.
Sending
birthday cards started in Great Britain about
a hundred years ago. Cards were often sent as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we often send 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 nearly inexcusable! Send the card even if its
tardy.
Birthday
parties have become celebrations
where friends and family members 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.
