This post was originally published in 2019. I love Christmas and dreamed of spending the holidays with a family of my own for as long as I can remember. Last Christmas was Margot’s first, but she was only 6 months old, so things are a lot different this year. It’s been so fun and so special to reach Christmas books to my daughter each night – to create these memories with her for the second time. Even though she’ll be 17 months this week and doesn’t really get it, she’s learning new things, loves lights, and I am thoroughly enjoying this season with her. Every night, we snuggle up in her chair and read holiday books together. Margot loves pointing out “hoho” (santa), “nut” (nutcracker), “o-ments” (ornaments), and “cookoos” (cookies). 

 

The Best Christmas Books for Kids from 1 to 92

 

Flash forward a few years. That baby girl is now 5 (almost 5 and-a-half!) and has a younger sister and baby brother. She loves some of the same books she loved as a toddler. Pick a Pine Tree is still our family’s favorite, with Tough cookie as a close second. The board books have been passed down to baby Jack who, at almost 8 months doesn’t seem to have any preferences. But it’s especially sweet to celebrate his first Christmas and start these traditions with him. Here are the best Christmas books for babies and toddlers.
