Dear Chicago House,
I celebrated a birthday last week and on waking up that morning, I rolled over and told Mr Chicago “I am in my prime!”
This was a serious “geek alert” moment as I was referring to prime numbers. Is it a little worrying I was thinking about mathematical concepts as soon as I became conscious? Mr Chicago replied …there is the making of a birthday card in that statement. And so the seed was sown…time to put on my graphic designer hat. If you need a little refresher course on what a prime number is click here.
So if you are looking for a birthday card for someone celebrating a prime number birthday and who’d appreciate this fun mathematical fact here you go.
I have created cards cards for 7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61,67,71,73,79,83,89 and 97 year olds. I figured 2,3 and 5 year olds were unlikely to get it!
Here is a quick sample of the cards… Links for each card are below
7 year old Birthday Card
11 year old birthday card
13 year old birthday card
17 year old birthday card
19 year old birthday card
23 year old birthday card
29 year old birthday card

37 year old birthday card
41 year old birthday card
43 year old birthday card

67 year old birthday card
71 year old birthday card

79 year old birthday card
83 year old birthday card

Enjoy!

That is a seriously fun idea for all the math and numbers people out there. Brilliant!!
this is great – ty!
Thank you for these. My friend, who’s a math professor who just turned 67, will appreciate this at his party coming up later this month.
hope he enjoyed!
Should make one for 75
75 is not a prime number (it is divisible by 3,5 …) However it would be an interesting age to make a card for!
Hi, thank you so much for making these available. I just wanted to let you know that the link for 61 isn’t working.
oooh thank for letting me know, going to fix that one right now!
All working now, I am guessing this is the one you were after so here is a direct link
