Guess whose birthday it is! vs Guess who's birthday it is!

Both phrases are similar; however, the correct one is "Guess whose birthday it is!". In this case, "whose" is the possessive form of "who," indicating that you're asking the person to guess someone's birthday. On the other hand, "who's" is a contraction of "who is" or "who has," which isn't suitable in this context.
