The big turkey day is approaching and as we spend the month talking about what we’re thankful for I also like to incorporate some fun stories, lessons and fun to mix up our reading in the evenings. So I’ve pulled together some favorite Thanksgiving books for kids that will have you ready to snuggle up on the couch and enjoy quality time and smiles.
As the kids are getting older I’m seeing a change in books we’re reading, but there are some that will always be a part of the holiday no matter what age.
