Christmas is when parents notice how fast it has gone. Last year she was writing to Santa in crayon; this year she is driving herself home from college, or bringing someone to meet you, or hosting her own Christmas for the first time.
These songs are picked from the parent’s side: some for the little girl she was, some for her first Christmas back home, some she will sing along to whatever her age, and a few songs about daughters to send with her gift. All are real recordings, each with a note on when it fits.
Or give her a Christmas song about her
Her nickname, the year she got the bike, the way she still steals the last cookie. Tell us a few details and we turn your story into lyrics and a finished song in minutes. You hear a free preview before you decide. Here is one we made for a daughter.
One we made, to hear what it sounds like
3:30Spread Your Wings
For Emily From Mom & Dad
"From your first steps to this day We've watched you grow in every way Now spread your wings and fly so high The world is yours, reach for the sky..."
You tell us about them, we write and sing it, and you hear a preview before you decide.

How to choose
Mix her era with yours
Play one song from her childhood and one from yours. Christmas is the one time of year she will happily listen to your music, as long as you listen to hers.
Use old home videos
A Christmas morning clip from when she was four, set to a song from this list, can mean more than anything under the tree. Keep it under three minutes.
Write the card first
Decide what you want to tell her, then pick the song that says it. A song without a note is a playlist; a song with a note is a gift.
Questions people ask
What is a good Christmas song for a daughter?
For a grown daughter, "Grown-Up Christmas List" by Amy Grant or "Christmas Tree Farm" by Taylor Swift. For a daughter coming home from college, "I’ll Be Home" by Meghan Trainor. For a young daughter, "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" from Frozen.
What song can a parent send a daughter at Christmas?
"Daughters" by John Mayer, "In My Daughter’s Eyes" by Martina McBride and "My Wish" by Rascal Flatts all say what parents feel. They are not Christmas songs, but they fit a Christmas card well.
Can I give my daughter a Christmas song with her name in it?
Yes. Tell us about her, the memories and the family jokes, and we turn your story into lyrics and a finished song with her name in it. It arrives as a private link she can play and download.
Can I hear it before I pay?
Yes. You hear a free preview first, and pay only if you love it.
Will it be ready for Christmas?
The full song is ready minutes after you pay, on any day including Christmas morning.
