Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday celebration. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for children. It is customary 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 lit for presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles. Blowing all the candles out
in one breath 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 festivity. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renditions over the years.
Sending
birthday cards started in Great Britain about
100 years ago. Originally cards were often sent as an
"apology" when you couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we sometimes mail birthday cards even if
we can! Hallmark cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming familiar. Forgetting a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the 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 friends at school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
