Kenny has given you correct answers. I'll just clarify one thing. "Hardly" is not the adverb for "hard". I think you're saying that the child will have to blow hard. "For your birthday, you'll have to blow hard to blow out the candle." ("Blow out" is a phrasal verb meaning to extinguish the candle with your breath.) "Hardly" means "barely." "The fog was so thick that I could hardly see." It means that I could see, but only just a little.
