Birthday
points of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an essential
part of the birthday party. A 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 birthday cake. Numeral candles are popular when the number
of candles exceed ten. The candles are all lighted for presentation. 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 officially published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of any
birthday party. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renditions through out the years.
Mailing
birthday greeting cards started in The UK about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often mailed as an
"apology" when a person couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we frequently post 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 popular. Forgetting a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! Send the 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 from school.
Cupcakes make great substitutions for birthday cake
at these parties.
