My one year old absolutely loves books! I'm trying to come up with some fun Christmas books for her to read to get her in the holiday spirit :) She's not very fond of Santa right now, so maybe if I introduced her properly to him through pictures, she might come around to liking him a little bit more!
1. The Polar Express: Written by Chris Van Allsburg, this is a classic holiday themed story with bright, big pictures and a great story line about never being able to forget the magic of Christmas. You will love this book as a child and you will continue to love it as an adult!
2. The Legend of the Poinsettia by Tomie dePaola: A Mexican legend about Poinsettia's with great illustrations. This book will captivate you with its pictures as it tells a story about a little girl and her mother who are chosen to complete a blanket to place at their church's Christmas manager. Read it to your children to find out what miracle takes place!
3. The First Christmas by Tomie dePaola: This is a pop up book telling the story of Christmas, ending in a manger scene. Children love pop up books and this will become a Christmas favorite!
What are your favorite children Christmas books?

Baby's first Santa visit looks rugged! Love the book suggestions and the idea of introducing babies to Santa early on.
