This is such a fun way to count down the days until Christmas with your little ones. Wrap 24 books and open and read one each night in December. I reuse the favorites and sprinkle in a few new ones each year.

Reading together is one of my older son's favorite memories from when he was little, which makes my heart happy. Now my younger son and I take turns reading to each other, and I hope he remembers it with the same fondness that his brother has. Here is a list of books that are great to read with your son (or daughter).

Baking and Christmas just go together. These are some things you will want to have on hand during the holiday season.
