If she grows up hearing and speaking in Cantonese, then it's definitely easier for her to learn that dialect. Otherwise, go for Mandarin. There are only 5 tones, whereas there are NINE in Cantonese.

If her grandparents speak Cantonese better, I would go with that. Its much easier to learn a language if you can talk with a native speaker often.

Mandarin-it will be the most spoken language in the world in a few years.

I seriously doubt any native English-speaker reading this forum can answer this better than the girl's grandparents, father or sister.

Mandarin is much more widely used!
