Wanted to get some inspiration from you ladies, if you're planning on having one at your child's birthday party.

Thanks!

I totally want to do one - but DH doesn't want to.

I would use - I could not ask for more by Sarah Evans....

We have tons but my 2 favorite are Handprints On The Wall by Kenny Rodges and Won't Let Go by Rascall Flatts.

I thought I'd chime in and give a suggestion (normally I prefer to observe the excitement in the posts that to participate).

I love Rockabye Baby (https://rockabyebabymusic.com/) - they take popular rock songs and convert them into instrumental lullabies. I think the Bob Marley one could be perfect for a slide show!

For my DD we did Daughter by Loudon Wainwright and Little Miss Magic by Jimmy Buffett.

When I dance, I use drop it like its hot and smak that a lot. Maybe she could use those.

Forever Young by Rod Stewart and I Hope You Dance by Leeann Womack. I have been putting a lot of thought in it...hahaha!

livpod · June 2011

I wish I had thought of this for dd's 1st... I would have used, In My Daughter's Eyes, Martina McBride.

Also love House at Pooh Corner, by Kenny Loggins and

Let Them Be Little - Lonestar

AnnaBanana0327 · June 2011

Don't blink Kenny Chesney

KimW · June 2011

Over The Rainbow/What a Wonderful World - Israel Kamakawiwo'ole

The Book of Love - Peter Gabriel's cover

danalatella · October 2013

Love the Daughter song! There's a song I'm looking for that would transition nicely from that. Female singer and 1 of the main lines is I'm so proud of you. Song is abut the mort of growing up. Help! I need this for my slideshow this weekend!

BabySlowsky · October 2013

Caspar Babypants has birthday related songs on his More Please!album called Sittin on this Rock and Light It Up

iwantnoworld · October 2013

(They Long To Be) Close to You by the Carpenters was my favorite. I also second Forever Young (though I used the version that played on Sons of Anarchy by Audra Mae and the Forest Rangers) and My Wish by Rascal Flatts. The Book of Love always gets me too.

Hollylb3 · October 2013

I'm making one behind dh's back because I want to see him cry, lol.

I can't decide between Lullaby by Dixie Chicks and You Are So Beautiful by Joe Cocker.

We did one for DS's birthday to Your Song by Elton John. I liked that it was totally fitting without being too slow or sappy.

If you're making a slide show for your daughter, check out Father's First Spring by The Avett Brothers. Wow, it's about his little girl and it's beautiful!
