Must-Read Christmas Books for Kids

These are our must-read Christmas books for kids each year. I try my best to make it through the list, I read the Christmas Carol every other year or at least try to find an audiobook version that I can play for the whole family. I feel so guilty because my oldest received the most read aloud time and now I’m split between his siblings, I can’t do it as much.

If you want your kids to have more fun while learning this Christmas season, you have to try these awesome Christmas Activities for Kids.

I start at the end of November and start borrowing the books from the library so things might now be available as I need them, this way I have a lot of back ups to choose from.
