Some birthday customs(习惯) are quite similar(相似)in many parts of the world---- birthday candles, birthday games,and birthday cakes. But some customs are more special to some countries. Here are some children talking about their customs.

Linda---I am fourteen. I come from Aruba. In our country, children take something special to school for their classmates and all teachers. Every teacher gives the birthday child a small present like a pencil, an eraser or a postcard. The birthday child doesn’t need to wear special uniform(校服). He or she can wear family clothes.

Lucy---I am one year older than Linda. Denmark(丹麦) is my country. We hung a flag(旗帜) outside a window to show that someone in that house is having a birthday. Presents are placed around the child’s bed while they are sleeping so they will see them at once when they wake up.

Tom---I am as old as Linda. I am from Brazil(巴西). The birthday child receives a pull on the earlobe(耳垂) for each year in my country. The birthday person also gives the first slice of cake to his most special friend or relative, usually mom or dad.
