wonderful year, but it is interpreted
also as an Arabic greeting for
"Happy Birthday".

Normally in Egypt they have a cake and delicious food and invite family and close friends to their parties.
These birthday parties in Egypt are held at home or some people prefer to have their parties at a restaurant or fast food restaurant like KFC, Pizza, or MacDonald's with entertainment (DJ, Magician, Puppet show).
Some people want to celebrate a child's first birthday and make it to be big and unique and invite many friends and Family (even as many as 80 people like a wedding party).
After the child's 1st birthday, parties are generally smaller and include family and a few close friends - usually fewer than 15 people. Entertainment is usually music from a CD or an Ipod, the kids dancing and then cake, food and beverages. Then, cha cha cha, blowing out the candle and the most important thing: singing a song!
