Maybe you dont want to wander too far on your birthday or you just have the night to celebrate.

How can you celebrate your birthday alone. Youve got a birthday coming up this year so weve got 15 things that you can do on your birthday to celebrate you. No matter how old you are put a lot of candles on the cake. If someone you know is self-isolating alone on their birthday do it virtually with clues that lead them from FaceTime to FaceTime to an email with a link to their birthday gift.

You can send it in the post. None of them are a huge stretch and most are simple every-day pleasures. Chinese pork buns super energy kale soup a delicious cheese ball homemade lavender brownies and a melted ice cream cake accompanied by a sweet rendition of Happy Birthday on the ocarina.

With restrictions on leaving our homes let alone meeting people from outside our households. You can create this tradition to teach your child environmental or social values. Dont skimp on the traditions just because.

A birthday is an ideal opportunity to enjoy a little self-indulgent pampering. Being stuck in your house for your birthday might make you a little bummed but you can make the most of it if you think outside-the-box and get creative. Being a daily list-maker I think Karens idea is an amazing way to celebrate a 50th birthday and embrace the start of this important decade in a very meaningful and fulfilling way.

Book an Airbnb or a bed and breakfast in a part of your city you dont get to see very often. Send a lols birthday card to your pal whos celebrating turning another year older during the pandemic. One way to do so is with a b-day scavenger.

Planting a tree every year or organising a trip to an orphanage old age home or a charity organisation are some ideas. While its not the same as partying in real life it might be cool to get virtual birthday wishes from your friends and to get the feeling you didnt celebrate your birthday without your friends and family. Make your birthday a spa day.
