One of the kids' favorite traditions is our Christmas book tradition.  I wrap 24 books and stick them in a basket by the tree.  Every night we open another Christmas book to read together.  I have about 30 books in my collection now, which is fun.  In the beginning many of them were gifts, but I would also pick up a new one or two each year.  I think I can stop now, unless I just can't live without one (which is very possible).  I love books – so I love this tradition!
