Birthdays

I teach pre-kindergarten and I'm doing a unit on Birthdays Around The World. Can someone tell me how birthdays are celebrated in Japan? Thank you very much!

I do not know everything there is to know about the celebration of birthdays in Japan, but I do know this much. When gifts are given, they are passed from the giver to the receiver from the sender's left to the reciever's right. The receiver places the gift on his/her left and opens it later. At least, I think this is how it is done. If I am wrong, my apologies.
