Christmas Around the World
Since Christ came to die for all men, it only makes sense that Christmas is celebrated around the world. This year we read some stories that were new to us about Christmas traditions, The Feast of Three Kings and La Nochebuena. My intention was to curate some curiosity about other cultures, traditions and languages. It’s so easy for us to think that the way we do something is the only way it should be done and that’s simply not true. I learned a lot by reading these books, which always happens whenever I pick up a well written children’s book, I hope that list inspires and sparks curiosity for your family this Christmas season.
12 Christmas Books for Black Families
I am never ready for Christmas, like NEVER. Every single December sneaks up on me. But this year we were able to compile a list of 12 great books to read to your Black children, or really any child. This list includes some books we own and others that we get from the library each December. In our house we don’t do Santa Claus, but that doesn’t keep us from reading books about him, the kids know he isn’t real, which allows for lots of laughter as we see different Santas in many of these stories. As always please leave a comment below if you think we need to add a title to our list! We hope you enjoy this time of year, and remember the TRUE reason for the season.
BIPOC Children & Bees
