December Prep

Thanksgiving is over and now it is time to get ready for some December fun.  I spent this Black Friday wrapping up our Christmas books, and even a few Hunakkah ones.  I've always wanted to do this and being a teacher, I have plenty of holiday books. So the plan is, that each day in December,  my boys will unwrap a book or two to read together.  My son always looks forward to our December book collection and thought this would build to the excitement of the holidays.
If you are in search of some Christmas/winter books, head to your local library's bookstore.  You can purchase books for $.50 - 1.00!  TJ Max has a good selection of books too, for a discount.  Another fun way to add to your collection is to have a holiday book exchange with your friends.

What are some of your favorite holiday books???  Here are only a few of our family favorites!!  Cozy up this time of year with your kids and enjoy some great books together!

Mommy and Me Holiday Express starts Monday, December 7!!! Register today:

Gobble, Gobble Appetizer

I had to bring a Fall appetizer to this year a friend's house and I wanted to make sure it would be something my kids would eat.  This simple turkey was a hit with the kids!  Happy Thanksgiving!

Half of a pear for the body and rings of yummy snacks around grapes, cheese, cranberries, and pecans.  Adjust to what your kids like to eat.
