In terms of celebrating a cousin’s birthday, you can go with “Happy birthday cousin!” But that’s not the only way, right? There are various ways to congratulate someone for his/her birthday, and the aforementioned is the classic, simplest way to say ‘happy birthday’. Somehow, for the one receiving the words, such simple words sound a bit bland and not sincere. Thus, it’d be better if you find some other words to convey what you truly feel about the return of his day.
The Egyptians are the first society who celebrates birthday—and at first, it was the Pharaoh’s birthday celebration that they celebrated. However, the Egyptians still didn’t have any sayings that go international and got famous as ‘happy birthday’, so famous which makes the one receiving it to feel that it’s so bland. You need to spice it up, either by preparing a funny happy birthday cousin saying or a heartfelt message mentioning your feelings on your cousin birthday.
Some other tips you can do while making the message are as follows:
- Do a simple research – You may dislike a lengthy text and tend to be to-the-point kind of person. However, it never hurts to conduct a simple research to find out what to say instead of just saying ‘happy birthday to my cousin’.
- Grab a reference – Want an easy trick? Go with some relevant keyword to find a ‘cheat’: stealing some words relevant to happy birthday cousin messages.
- Don’t just get the words, prepare a gift to accompany – With only words, your presence may not be that stands out. Bring a gift that you think will be perfect for him/her.
- Know him/her well – When making the messages, you may need to ‘analyze’ his/her personality. Will he/she be able to laugh over your happy birthday cousin funny words? What about some lovely messages that trigger their mellow side? That’s on you to think about.
Happy Birthday Cousin Messages: Simple but Meaningful Happy Birthday Cousin Sayings
You need to know first what you want to include into the gift card. Is it only a short, one-paragraph letter? Or maybe you prefer the longer one? Well, meaningful letters don’t have to be long, and that’s what we want to emphasize here.

Writing cards may seem easy, but it actually isn’t—especially if you’re not accustomed to writing such things. If it occurs to you, then you can get some reference first before creating the letter yourself. Plus, know your ‘audience’—your cousin. Will the person cringe over your birthday letter that starts with “happy birthday to my beautiful cousin’? If you think that may happen, it’s time to change the words.
