My good friend Carlo invited me to his birthday party. He moved to Canada from Mexico (墨西哥) when he was a baby, but his parents tried to follow some of the Mexican traditions. At his party I saw my first pinata (彩罐).
It looked like an animal and was full of candies. People put it on the ceiling (天花板). Carlo hit the pinata until it broke. All the candies fell onto the floor, and we had a great time eating candies. Everyone shared. It was fun!
Carlo’s birthday party got me thinking about how kids in other places celebrate birthdays. Did you know that in Vietnam (越南), every kid’s birthday is on the same day? Kids do not celebrate on the days they were born. All the kids celebrate their birthdays on New Year’s Day. Parents give kids red envelopes (信封) with lucky money in them. What a great way to celebrate birthdays!
In South Africa, kids do not celebrate every birthday. However, on their 21st birthday, their parents make a key. It can be made of paper or wood. Parents give the birthday child this key. It is a sign from the parents that the child can now unlock the door to their future life.
In Japan, children get new clothes on their birthdays. In Denmark (丹麦), a flag flies outside the window of a house where a child is having a birthday. When the child is asleep, parents put presents all around the child’s bed.

In Japan, children get new clothes on their birthdays. In Denmark (丹麦), a flag flies outside the window of a house where a child is having a birthday. When the child is asleep, parents put presents all around the child’s bed.
