My mom's birthday is in a few days. For each of our parents birthdays we (their children) take them out to eat then we come back to my house for dessert that usually I make, sometimes my sister does. We give her gifts as well. We have been doing this for as long as I can remember. What do you do for your parents' birthday?

i at home.., on our parent's birthday.., each of us, their kids would make an individual personalized bday cards.., and aside from that we make special birthday banner with designs and hang it right in front of the master's bedroom door early in the morning so that the first thing that they would notice once they get out is our loud greeting banner..hahaha...

My kids usually make birthday cards for us too. I like the ones that my kids make better than the ones you buy in the store because they are more personal.

When it is my parents' birthday, I usually greet them exactly at midnight. Sometimes, I sing Happy Birthday to them. It makes me happy that they smile after my greeting. Then I give my birthday gift. Then we eat out during dinner at some fancy restaurant that we heard great reviews about. Afterward, we usually have coffee either at home or some cafe.

Neat idea...I don't think my parent would like to be woke up at midnight though since they are in their late 60's/early 70's! So glad you celebrate your parents birthday!

I think most of the time we take them out so we could eat dinner and so, but there were also times that we add a little something with eating out because most of the time that's what we do, There was this one time that we went to an OCEANPARK with everyone and my parents before we eat dinner, they've enjoyed it so much because most of us have been there but they haven't so they enjoyed it, there was also this one time that we try to do a photo sideshow and then we watched it first before we ate out. There are still lot of things you could do for your parents, hope this helps
