The Rebbe's Advice #138 - Celebrating a deceased child’s birthday
It is appropriate to celebrate the day of a deceased child’s birthday by doing all the normal customs associated with a birthday and giving tzedaka in his memory. The amount of tzedaka should correspond to the numerical equivalent of the child’s name. A chasidic farbrengen should be made in conjunction with the birthday.
