When Faith was very little I used to play The Denver Mile High Orchestra's swing version of Jingle Bells and would have her in my arms and we'd go dancing around the living room together. Maybe that's why that song is one of her favorites! Faith actually doesn't do well listening to the slower, more traditional songs as she gets very emotional and even a little weepy.
To learn the history of where these Christmas songs originated check out my Article: My Top Ten Favorite Christmas Songs and from Whence They Came
It was hard to narrow it down to just ten - but these Christmas songs are highest on my list:
O Holy Night
White Christmas
Jingle Bells
Feliz Navidad (Faith loves this song too! I think it reminds her of her Auntie Barbara who is from Mexico!)
Silent Night
Do You Hear What I Hear
Joy to the World
The First Noel
O Come O Come Emmanuel
Breath of Heaven
Other favorites include: Mary Did You Know, Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree, O Little Town of Bethlehem, Let It Snow and I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day. What are some of your favorite Christmas songs?
