Did you know that the tradition of celebrating birthdays goes back thousands of years? The ancient Egyptians were among the first to mark the “birthdays” of pharaohs although it was more about their coronation day than their actual birth. Later, the Greeks added a special touch by offering moon-shaped cakes to Artemis, the goddess of the moon, and lighting candles on top to mimic the glow. That’s right the origin of birthday candles dates back to ancient mythology! Over time, birthday celebrations became more personal, especially in Germany during the Middle Ages, where the tradition of Kinderfeste children’s birthday parties began. Today, birthday parties around the world are full of joyful traditions, colorful balloons, sweet treats, heartfelt wishes, and of course, a moment to feel extra special.
