Last year I read about a Christmas tradition where on December 1st you wrap 25 Christmas books and each night your children open one book and read it as a part of their bedtime story. You recycle the same books every year.
I loved the idea but I didn't like the idea of having to purchase 25 books all at one time. I find it a blessing from God that I went to a Library sale and bought most of our books for a $1. This tradition was a lot easier on our pocket than I thought it was going to be. As the children get older I will switch out some of the easy readers for some classic Christmas books. Lady has thoroughly enjoyed opening a present every night after dinner.
We still don't have 25 books but we are a lot closer than we were before the library sale.
Cheers to creating new Christmas traditions.
