National Daughters Day was first celebrated in India, where daughters were often less valued than sons and thus given less attention. It was introduced in the United States in the early 2000s to honor the unique bond between parents and their daughters.

How to celebrate National Daughters Day

You don't have to plan an expensive and elaborate event to celebrate this occasion. There are several ways to celebrate National Daughter Day:

  • Spend wonderful hours together: Go shopping, have dinner dates, take a walk. As long as your daughter is the focus, any activity is time well spent.
  • Show your gratitude by telling your daughter how much you love and appreciate her: A simple “I love you” or perhaps a small gift can show her how you feel about her.
  • Have a conversation: Family life can be so hectic sometimes that it's hard to find time to talk, so take a moment to change that by chatting with your daughter and sharing stories and memories of your time together.
  • Empower your daughter: Encourage her to pursue her dreams, explore her interests and believe in herself so she can reach her full potential.
