25 DAYS oF CHRISTMAS BOOKS

I have heard of the 24 Days of Christmas tradition and am going to start this year with my family.   I am going to wrap 24 books and place in a basket.  I will have T’was the Night Before Christmas wrapped but labeled Christmas Eve as well as the Christmas Story wrapped and labeled Christmas morning.

  Each night, beginning December 1^st  we will unwrap 1 book and read it in the evening as a family (yes even my teen will have to sit thru).  Each night a different family member could pick the book from the basket until everyone has had a turn, this is important for younger kids, and if you need to avoid a fight just pick the next book on top or even label the books 1-25.

This is a great thing to do anytime and you can use any books you like, re use the same books every year or add in a few new ones.  Because they are wrapped up it will be a surprise each night.  We do always read the Night before Christmas on Christmas eve and Christmas morning I would like to add in the Christmas story, making mine 25 days instead of 24.

Here is what will be in our basket this year:
