Birthday Cards
The tradition of birthday
parties started a long, long time ago somewhere in Europe. People thought
that on a person's birthday evil spirits were attracted to them. In order to
protect them from harm, family members and friends brought with them good
thoughts and wishes. Bringing gifts and being together helped to take away
the evil spirits.
