As we start the new year and leave the old behind, it is a great opportunity to make changes in our own lives and in our communities. After the holidays, it’s especially important to remind kids of their role in helping others and making the world a more beautiful place!

The new year gives us an opportunity to reflect on the year that has just ended and imagine the changes we would like to make in the coming year. When it comes to this yearly goal setting, many times we make bland resolutions. Lose 5 pounds. Get up earlier. Keep up with the house work. Without a real plan, many of these are forgotten by February, if not earlier. So, instead of making generic resolutions, why not sit down with a warm cup of tea/coffee/cocoa and set some actionable goals for the year. To offer you some inspiration for changing your perspective or changing your life, I asked other bloggers which books changed their lives for the better. Below I have compiled a list of the top 9 choices of life changing books which got multiple votes. These will be on my reading list this year!

I hope you have fun creating some delicious snacks with your family, while enjoying some of these delightful takes on the classic tale!
Christmas is celebrated in many different countries around the world. Whether you say Merry Christmas or Feliz Navidad or Fröhliche Weihnachten, the spirit of the holiday is the same. There are many great books available to introduce children to Christmas celebrations all over the world. Why not take a trip around the globe together and learn some new customs? While learning how people celebrate Christmas around the world, you may discover something you want to make into a family tradition of your own.
I love seeing poinsettias all around during the Christmas season. There are so many pretty varieties, and they bring such a pop of color to the home. But do you know the significance behind them? Today we had some fun learning about the legend of the poinsettia, and creating some fun Christmas crafts and snacks to pair with it!

Jingle bells are one of my favorite sounds of the season! The traditional song is one of the first carols we teach young kids (my daughter already likes yelling the “hey” part), and we introduce bells to them as soon as they can shake their fists! There are many beautiful children’s books that have used the traditional song to tell a Christmas story.

Elves have become a beloved part of the Christmas lore and traditions. (Unless you are the type of parent who dreads the return of Elf on the Shelf). Today’s book is a fun story about the life of an elf, giving us a chance to have even more elf inspired fun!
