It is almost Christmas! As I get older time seems to pass by more quickly, doesn’t it?

I thought I would share some of the books I am planning to buy for my grandson who is now almost two and a half. He is really into trains and trucks, and loves being outside. He is also beginning to be interested in going potty and he likes to make loud noises.

A Very Noisy Christmas seems like a really fun book. It is the story of the Nativity retold in such a way that the reader makes loud noises and quiet noises and invites the child to also participate too. I predict we will have a very noisy Christmas!

Who Pooped on Me? A lazy lizard is trying to relax and suddenly SPLAT! Now he is on a mission to discover who did it and why! It has beautiful pictures and not a lot of  words which is perfect for this age group.

Little Blue Truck’s Christmas. My grandson loves the Little Blue Truck series so this was an easy pick. The Little Blue Truck is always helpful and there are lots of sounds to make throughout the book!

Spot’s Christmas. I bought several Spot books with the lift up flaps which my grandson loves, so this was an easy choice as well. There is something about these peek-a-boo books that are just so interesting to this age group.

Christmas Train. This board book combines counting and seek-and-find activities in one. The board book unfolds into a 56 inch train and has a velcro clasp to keep it together when you fold it away. I thought this would be a fun activity to do when we all need some quiet time!

I hope you too find just the right books for those you love for the holidays!

Happy Holidays!
