Grandparents often want to send something more personal than a text on their granddaughter’s birthday, and a short video or GIF with her name is an easy way to do it. Pick a wish below, type her name, add a photo of you together and export a **GIF** to send in a message or an **Video (MP4)** with a Happy Birthday tune.

This page opens the editor on the family templates in Story 9:16, which fills her phone. If you are new to this, the steps below take a few minutes; the [grandson page](https://birthday.video/happy-birthday-grandson) has lines for boys, and [Grandma’s own page](https://birthday.video/happy-birthday-grandma) is for the other way round.

Nothing is uploaded and there is no account to make: it works in the phone’s web browser.

Start from one of these

## Happy birthday wishes for a granddaughter

Choose one for the **Message** on the card. Most families send one from both grandparents, so sign it however you sign your cards.

* Happy birthday to our little sunshine. You light up every visit.
* From the day you were born, you’ve had our hearts. Happy birthday, darling.
* Happy birthday, sweetheart. Grandad has already eaten some of your cake.
* You make us the proudest grandparents in the world.
* Seven today. Grandma remembers when you fitted in one arm.
* Happy birthday to our favourite granddaughter (we’ve checked, it’s you).
* Wishing you a day full of everything you love, and a big hug from us.
* Happy 16th, darling. Still our little girl, whatever you say.
* Happy 18th. The world is lucky to have you, and so are we.
* Every year you grow kinder, cleverer and taller than Grandma.
* Happy birthday, love. Come and see us soon; the biscuit tin is full.
* You were our first grandchild and you’re still our greatest joy.
* Happy birthday to the girl who taught us how to use the video call.
* Sending all our love from Nana and Grandad.

## How grandparents can make a birthday video for a granddaughter

1. ### Open a family card
Tap **Make one for your granddaughter**. Choose a card you like from **Templates**.
2. ### Type her name and your message
Type her name in **Name**, her new age in **Age**, and a wish from the list in **Message**.
3. ### Add a photo
Tap **Add photos and clips** and choose a picture from your phone: her with you, or her last birthday.
4. ### Send it
Tap **Export video** (or press **Export video** and choose **GIF**), then **Share** and pick WhatsApp, Messages or email.

## A little help for grandparents

If phones are not your favourite thing, these tips make it easier:

* **Use the phone with your photos on it.** The pictures you add come from the phone you are using.
* **Ask a grown-up grandchild to help once.** After the first time it is the same few taps.
* **Your work is saved.** If you stop halfway, open the site again on the same phone and it offers to carry on.
* **Send it to her parents** if she is too young for a phone; they will show her.

## Ideas for different ages

### Little ones

Young children love seeing their own name and age move on the screen, and hearing the tune. An **Video (MP4)** with **Add music** is perfect; parents can play it at the party.

### Teenagers

Keep it short and kind. A **GIF** with one line and her name is about the right amount of fuss, and a photo she actually likes will do the rest. The [16th birthday page](https://birthday.video/happy-16th-birthday) has more ideas.

### Grown-up granddaughters

For an 18th, a 21st or a wedding year, a video with photos from her childhood with you is a gift she will keep.

## Granddaughter birthday videos: questions

### What can grandparents write to a granddaughter on her birthday?

Something warm and simple: how proud you are, a memory you share and her name. The list above has lines for every age.

### Is this hard to do on a phone?

No. Open a card, type her name and your message, add a photo and tap **Export video**. It works in the phone’s web browser.

### Can both grandparents sign it?

Yes. Write “Love, Nana and Grandad” at the end of **Message**; every word on the card can be changed.

### Can I send it on WhatsApp?

Yes. Tap **Share** after exporting and pick WhatsApp. A **GIF** plays straight away; an **Video (MP4)** keeps the music.

### Does it cost anything?

No. It is free and there is no sign-up or watermark.
