This roundup of baby Christmas books focuses on board books that are perfect for those newborns to three year olds who love handling, tossing, and chewing what they’re reading. I believe books are for use, so every time my kid destroys a book because she’s been reading it so enthusiastically — and she is an intense reader — I feel like the book has more than done its job. I’ve stuck primarily to baby Christmas books, including baby’s first Christmas and some personalized options, but I have added a few broader “winter” and winter holiday themed books, too, to offer a range of options. Because these are board books and many are developed inside publishing houses, as opposed to created by individual authors, it is challenging to know how diverse this list truly is. So I’m conscious of making sure the books themselves feature a range of illustrations, showcasing a range of families. It is a priority for me to get diverse books into my own kid’s hands, and despite the barriers to figuring out who has written or illustrated some of the titles, what’s not hard is perusing through the images to ensure they don’t represent a single type of person. Most of these books are not part of a franchise, though a couple are part of a well-known series and/or by beloved authors. Want more holiday books for children and babies? Check out: For readers who love this book or want to expand beyond Christmas, there is also an excellent title in this series called Baby’s First Hanukkah. Want another STEM-themed winter holiday book in this series? Check out Baby Loves Angular Momentum on Hanukkah. You can buy other books about similar creatures of folklore in this series, including the seasonally-appropriate Yeti Baby.
