\"Welcome<\/p>\n

Welcome to December! Another year has come and (almost) gone. Your little one has learned so much in this time! Playing outside can be a little trickier now if you live in a cold climate, but still so worth it. Don’t you just love those rosy cheeks when they come in from playing in the snow?<\/p>\n

December is a very busy time for families. It’s a good thing to have some activities available!<\/p>\n

For example, you could sit down and read The Story of Peter Rabbit<\/a>, first published on December 16, 1901<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Does your little one love airplanes? The Wright Brothers’ first flight<\/a> took place on December 17, 1903<\/strong>. Some great pictures here!<\/p>\n

\nLearn some popular Hanukkah songs<\/a>.
\nHave fun cooking together<\/a>.
\nRead some Hanukkah books<\/a>.
\nEnjoy some Hanukkah coloring pages<\/a>!\n<\/p>\n

Nobody who lives in the Western world can miss the big holiday of December, Christmas (December 25, 2014)<\/strong>.
\nNeed some toddler-friendly Christmas crafts<\/a>?
