On the tenth day of Christmas, Bonggamom gives to thee... a snowman book

Bonggamom's Christmas blog button 08

Ever notice how, when January rolls around, images of holly and ivy turn into images of snowflakes and snowmen? Winter is here, in all it's, uh, wintry glory. There's no better time than a cold wintry day than to snuggle up with your kids under a blanket and read a book together (poetic, huh?).



Today's winner, whoever he is, will receive a copy of The Biggest, Best Snowman (value $5.99), a fun picture book you can read with your preschoolers on a snowy day. 3Po and Jammy really relate to this book because they're the littlest in the family too, just like Little Nell in the book; they probably have all sorts of fantasies of beating their big sister in biggest-snowman competitions too.

  1. My son's favorite winter activity is throwing snowballs at our dog (which is definitely NOT my dog's favorite winter activity!). Cute book- we collect snowmen at our house.

  18. Winter activity - not a big fan of the outdoor cold weather even though we're in WI! We do get out and build snowmen, spend plenty of time shoveling and all those great things, but what our family really likes to do in winter is snuggle by the fireplace. pvilletoygirl At- gmail Dot- com
