This is such a cute idea. I featured it in today’s Simple Makes post, “Best Advent Links: Preparing for Christmas.” See it at http://www.simplemakes.com/2008/12/best-advent-links-preparing-for.html. Thanks for the great post!

I absolutely love this idea, getting to open a present and reading a book together, awesome. Every year we do something similar, but on a smaller scale. Each child will recieve a hardcover book Christmas morning, not to play with now, but to save and take with them when they move out and start their own family. With 7 monkeys we now have a whole bookshelf. Thanks for sharing the idea.

This is a great idea – I think I’ll ask my bookclub friends if anyone would like to trade some holiday books. My kids are little, but a lot of them have grown chidren. They’d probably love to lend us some for December.

I love this! My children are 20 and 16 – probably too old to enjoy it, but maybe I’ll talk them into it anyway. I know that I have at least 25 Christmas books. I have all the Christmas Little Golden books from when they were little.
