Christmas Picture Books for Preschoolers

On November 1, I'll be releasing a brand new Christmas curriculum called Come to the Manger: A Christ-Centered Christmas for Preschoolers. This 4-week guide includes daily Bible readings, picture books, activities for phonics and counting practice, simple recipes and crafts, and more. I cannot wait to show you!

As the release draws closer, I want to share the recommended picture book list that goes with the curriculum. These books were chosen because they celebrate and exalt Jesus, the only true meaning of Christmas. He is the gift we proclaim!

If you can, reserve these at your local library. If you're not able to find them there, take a look at betterworldbooks.com (used books). Shopping at Better World Books for gently used books has helped our book budget immensely. I just checked and all of these books can be found there. If you use the link in my bio, you'll get $5 off your order of $30 of more (and I'll get $5 credit - thank you!).

Here's the list! You can download a printable list here: Preschool Christmas Books
