Birthdays through the years and how we marked them
Sunderland Echo
|September 19, 2025
One thing everyone in the world has in common is an annual event, a birthday! As children we anticipate our birthdays with great excitement, at least I always did.
As a child in the 1960s, I was lucky that my parents threw a party for me each year until I was about 10 and then I think they petered off.
As I am an April birthday the weather was often kind, and we could have games not just in the house but in our garden too.
The party was very simple compared to some children's parties these days.
