<h2>Reading Activities</h2>Children crave quality time with us. With shorter days spent indoors, Advent is such a cozy and joyous time to read together. &nbsp;<ul><li>Include books in your Advent calendar. Collect some children’s Christmas books. Write down the titles on slips of paper and put them in your Advent calendar. On these days, unveil the book with great showmanship and read with enthusiasm.&nbsp;</li></ul>&nbsp;<ul><li>Attend baby storytime at a library or bookstore. Enjoy books, songs, and literacy tips from librarians and book professionals. Socialize with other families before and after the program.</li></ul>&nbsp;<ul><li>Try a new Christmas cookie recipe from a cookbook. Your child will see you using a book for information and learn that books are an important part of daily life. If you have a baby, give them a nonbreakable bowl and wooden spoon so they can imitate what you’re doing. If you have a toddler, they can help you measure and stir ingredients.&nbsp;</li></ul>&nbsp;<ul><li>Read holiday books from other cultures and countries. Yes, German Christmas is quite spectacular. But how is Christmas celebrated in other parts of the world? (Hello, sunny Christmases at and below the equator!) And what winter holidays do other religions celebrate? Borrow diverse books from the library and show your baby the world!</li></ul>&nbsp;<h4>&nbsp;</h4><h2>Collecting and Gifting Books</h2>Place both baby toy boxes&nbsp;and books beneath your Christmas tree!&nbsp;&nbsp;<ul><li>Purchase used books at Christmas Markets, flea markets, and secondhand shops. Often you can find books in almost-new condition or special vintage titles that are now out-of-print.&nbsp;</li></ul>&nbsp;<ul><li>Borrow books from friends or relatives. Traveling for Christmas? Ask if anyone at your destination has children’s books you can borrow during your stay. You’ll discover new titles and have less to transport. Loan books to guests visiting you.</li></ul>&nbsp;<ul><li>Invite a relative to read to your child. This is a special bonding opportunity and many adults and teens love being asked to do this!</li></ul>&nbsp;<ul><li>Donate books to church and library book sales. Now you have more space for your newly acquired Christmas presents!</li></ul>&nbsp;Never forget: reading to a young child prepares them to become readers themselves someday. This gift will benefit them the rest of their lives. &nbsp;References for this article:<a href="https://www.zlb.de/veranstaltungen/aktuell/kalender/zeige/buecherbabys-fuer-die-allerkleinsten-40.html">https://www.zlb.de/veranstaltungen/aktuell/kalender/zeige/buecherbabys-fuer-die-allerkleinsten-40.html</a><a href="https://www.howwemontessori.com/how-we-montessori/2019/07/independence-in-the-kitchen-baking-with-a-one-year-old.html">https://www.howwemontessori.com/how-we-montessori/2019/07/independence-in-the-kitchen-baking-with-a-one-year-old.html</a><a href="https://gabelschereblog.de/backen-mit-kindern-meine-tipps">https://gabelschereblog.de/backen-mit-kindern-meine-tipps</a><a href="https://aimmontessoriteachertraining.org/eight-great-multicultural-holiday-picture-books/">https://aimmontessoriteachertraining.org/eight-great-multicultural-holiday-picture-books/</a><a href="https://www.lovelybooks.de/stoebern/empfehlung/weihnachten-in-aller-welt/">https://www.lovelybooks.de/stoebern/empfehlung/weihnachten-in-aller-welt/</a> &nbsp;Collecting and Gifting BooksPlace both baby toy boxes&nbsp;and books beneath your Christmas tree!&nbsp; &nbsp;<ul><li>Purchase used books at Christmas Markets, flea markets, and secondhand shops.
