It is a custom in Britain and in most European countries to celebrate a person’s day. Members of the
family and close friends are supposed to be present at the party. If they can’t come they may send a gift by post.
At the birthday party, the person who gives birth day party opens all the gifts in front of all the people present
and thanks them for the gifts.
The mother usually makes a birthday cake, or if she can’t, she may order one from a cake- shop. A
number of candles are placed on the top of the cake and will be lighted when the party starts. The number of
candles is also the age of that person. After the light is out they all sing a song “ Happy birthday to you….”
