details of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an important
part of the birthday party. A birthday cake with candles
is not just for children. 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 10. The candles are all lit for display. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one attempt customarily brings good luck for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of the
birthday festivity. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various renderings through out the years.
Mailing
birthday cards started in England about
one hundred years ago. Originally cards were often sent as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we often send birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has since become a multi-million
dollar business. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming more familiar. Forgetting a birthday
on time is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is nearly inexcusable! Send the card even if its
belated.
Birthday
parties have become social gatherings
where friends and family members would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having a birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include friends at school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
