In Mexico, piñatas filled with candy are broken instead of blowing out candles. Korea's most important birthday dish is sweet rice cake. In Vietnam, birthdays are not celebrated individually and are instead celebrated together on New Year's Day when children receive money from relatives. In New Zealand and Ireland, candles are lit on cakes and songs are sung before the birthday person receives claps or gentle head knocks equal to their age plus one for luck.
