Blow the candle

Hi teachers,

I found these sentences on our forum by Fees11. It's an old post.

What happened when you blew the candle on the cake? Did you blow the candle over? Did you blow the candle out? Did you only blow at the candle?

1. What is "blow the candle over"?

2. What is "blow the candle out"?

3. What is "blow at the candle"?

Thanks
