Every year for Christmas I try to come up with gift options for my little ones that aren’t toys. Toys are fun for 3 seconds and then they want to move on. I’d rather purchase something that they love to use or do every day and for us, that is usually reading. The boys love reading every night before bedtime so books have become our most cherished gift.
This year I decided I would create a book gift guide for toddlers and kids to share some of our favorites that aren’t’ necessarily “top dogs” in the retail stores…yet. I hope your littles enjoy!
