Hanukkah Books Your Kids Will Love!
Hanukkah is right around the corner and my daughter is excited. We don’t celebrate Hanukkah, but when she first learned about the holiday last year, she got so excited that she wanted to learn all about it. A friend of ours sent us a video of her lighting the candles and saying the blessing, and it just inspired her to learn more. So I decided to gather a list of children’s books about Hanukkah to help us learn more about the holiday and the traditions.
Entertaining Activity Books Your Kids Will Want!
I love books that kids can interact with. Look and find books were some of my favorites when I was growing up.

Whether your kids are interested in LEGOs, cooking, STEM or journaling, there is an activity book for them.

Books to End the Bedtime Battle
Bedtime can sometimes be a struggle. From the very beginning my daughter has had a difficult time sleeping. We read together every night before bed, so I am always on the lookout for great bedtime books. I previously posted about our Two Book Bedtime Routine, which includes a relaxing book meant to help her drift to sleep. This list of bedtime books are great options for winding down at the end of the day and helping to end the bedtime battle.
15 Children’s Books about Pumpkins
Fall is almost here, which means it’s time to start thinking about pumpkins, apples, and fall festivals! Fall is my favorite time of year, and I love visiting the apple orchards and pumpkin patches with my family. Our neighbor is unintentionally growing pumpkins this year (squirrels love to bury pumpkin seeds it seems), so we have had the opportunity to watch them grow from vines into flowers, and finally into pumpkins. To celebrate the start of fall and continue our pumpkin education, I decided to gather a list of fun children’s books about pumpkins. From board books to picture books, and even non-fiction reads, there is a little something for everyone!

What’s So Special About Books?
Books are magical. They can teach us, transport us, make us feel safe, push us out of our comfort zones, and make us feel like we know people and places that have never even existed. Books can teach us about the world, and they can teach us about ourselves. From the very beginning, books and reading can have a transformative effect on your life. Today, we had the opportunity to check out a book that shows what makes books special, and how they can transform your life. It offers an opportunity to think about the books that inspire and shape you as well.
Celebrate Family with These Books about Grandparents!
The relationship between grandparents and their grandchildren is a special one. I love watching my daughter spend time with my parents and create new memories and traditions. They have such a special relationship, and I love watching it grow and flourish. In honor of National Grandparents Day (celebrated on the first Sunday after Labor Day), I gathered a list of children’s books about grandparents for your family to share.
