About the Song

Written by Irish songwriter Tommie Connor and recorded in 1952 by Jimmy Boyd, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus quickly became a seasonal best-seller. Its cheeky premise sparked brief controversy in some quarters until it was clarified that “Santa” was Dad in costume — after which the song’s popularity only grew. It has since been covered by many artists, notably The Ronettes and The Jackson 5, and returns to radio playlists every December.

Lighthearted and catchy, the song tells a child’s wide-eyed tale with a wink and plenty of sleigh-bell sparkle. Its playful narrative and simple refrain make I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus a favourite for school concerts, community events, and festive sing-alongs, where a touch of humour keeps the holiday mood bright.
