Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake have become an essential
part of the birthday party. A cake with candles
is not just for youngsters. It is customary to place a
total of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the birthday cake. Numeral candles are popular when the number
of candles exceed 10. The candles are all lighted for presentation. People make wishes when blowing
out my birthday candles on the cake. Blowing all the candles out
in one attempt customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.

Birthday to You" was is relatively
new to birthday tradition. The song was officially published

Sending
birthday greeting cards started in The UK about
100 years ago. Cards were often sent off as an
"apology" when you couldn't call upon somebody
in person. Today we often post birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has since become a multi-million
dollar industry. Online electronic cards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming accepted. Forgetting a birthday
is one thing, forgetting the birthday card all
together is quite another! 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
