Birthday
points of interest:
Birthday gifts and Candles
on the birthday cake are an essential
part of the birthday festivity. A birthday cake with lit candles
is not just for youngsters. It is traditional to place a
total of candles equal to the person's age on top of
the birthday cake. Numeral candles are accepted 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 breath customarily brings good fortune for the birthday
person.
The song, "Happy
Birthday to You" was is comparatively
new to birthday custom. The song was officially published
in 1935 and has since become an inherent part of the
birthday celebration. Numerous vocalists have also recorded
various interpretations over the years.
Posting
birthday greeting cards started in England about
a hundred years ago. Originally cards were often posted as an
"apology" when a person couldn't visit somebody
in person. Today we frequently send birthday greeting cards even if
we can! Hallmark greeting cards has now become a multi-million
dollar business. Online ecards or online birthday card
messages are also becoming more familiar. Not remembering a birthday
on time 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 relatives would bring gifts and goodies
to the person having their birthday. Children's birthday
parties often include classmates from school.
Cupcakes make great replacements for birthday cake
at these parties.
