Multi-country birthday Celebrations




 At a toastmasters international meeting of Singapore International Dynamic Club the Vice President of education organized a zoom meeting during Covid travel restriction for the President of the online club. She sent him a chocolate birthday cake and asked us all to get ourselves a piece of chocolate birthday cake and a candle to light. We also had a birthday congratulations back ground.

At the online Zoom meeting interval, the birthday boy, (a man) was asked to light his cake and we all showed our backgrounds and sang happy birthday online. We ate our piece of cake whilst he had a piece of his cake.

The well-organized event was original and amusing. It made him feel special, made us feel privileged and excited by the novelty and camaraderie.

You could do the same or something similar for a birthday party which is all or partly online. At least go online or share pictures for the cake cutting.

No Blowing Out Candles

Nowadays, for health reasons we no longer blow out candles, or at least not over cakes. No breathing on cakes which others will eat. Maybe not even over something you are going to eat.

Instead, you can have a visual blowing out of candles. AI can do that for you. Be inventive.

Photo Montage Or Videos

A picture of previous birthdays could be good. For example, all the previous birthdays of a five year old child. And even the birth! The newborn! You can also show a video, as is done at many weddings, when you have three ceremonies, one at the country were the couple are living, one for her parents, one for his. 

You can do the same with parties for children, with adults online from overseas. Or two parties online one for children, online guests sent small toys like going home gifts.\
