Birthdays are the only holidays that takes place year round. If you’re like me, you have people to shop for at least once a month. May is a particularly busy month for birthdays in my life, but did you know that the least people are born in May? NobleWorks has compiled a collection of fabulous birthday facts. Here are some highlights for you:

  • The most common day of the week for baby births is Tuesday. Sunday is the least common.
  • In America, the most common birth date is October 5.
  • The world’s largest birthday cake was created in 1989. It weighed 128,238 pounds, 8 oz. and used 16,209 pounds of icing.
  • Close to 2 billion birthday cards are sent each year in the U.S. alone, accounting for nearly 58 percent of all cards sent.

    What a great article, I’m really glad I stumbled across it as I found it to be really informative. A good article on birthday cards is not that easy to find but I’m amazed on how you touched on all the corners and how brief and to the point it was. Surprise rainbow invitations card is very interesting. I highly recommend checking out twent3 for birthday and greeting cards, as I’ve used them on several occasions and the cards they produce are really unique and also customised in 3d. So if you want to gift a birthday card to your friends, loved ones or even just for yourself, I can assure you these greeting cards will keep your long-lasting memories alive with the clever lenticular lens they use.
