‘Tis the season for holiday reading, Christmas activities and more—all on Epic.
We love this time of year! From favorite family traditions to magical stories and all the anticipation in the air, the holidays are so much fun for kids (and kids at heart!). They’re also the perfect time to dig into the vast selection of holiday books on Epic! Did you know you can find lots of fun holiday activities and recipe ideas in our library, too? We’ve put all the best ones together in a very special Unwrap Holiday Fun Collection.
Here are some of the highlights to get you and your kids in the holly jolly spirit!
Read These Holiday Books
Pour the hot cocoa, get the fire going and cozy up with popular holiday books for kids of all ages. You’ll find Read-To-Me books, Audiobooks and even comics. Discover Christmas stories from sweet to silly, learn about holiday traditions around the world and so much more. (Psst! Kids can earn special Holiday 2023 badges if they read from the collection in the month of December!).
Here are some great ones to read together as a family:
Joy to the World! Christmas Around the Globe
Have Yourself a Furry Little Christmas
Snow Globe Wishes
Listen to The Night Before Christmas
Visions of sugarplums are just a tap away with this audiobook of the “The Night Before Christmas.” If the narrator sounds familiar, that’s because it’s the voice of award-winning actor Jeff Bridges! Play this story while you decorate the tree or during any other family time this season.
Try a Simple Holiday Craft
Keep kids busy over break and start a new family tradition with the fun ideas in “Christmas Crafts.” Find easy-to-follow, illustrated instructions for making Christmas cards, holiday bookmarks, napkin rings and more. The best part? They can do most of these crafts with basic materials you have around the house!
Have Fun With Epic Originals Characters
“Boredom Busters: Holiday Celebrations” will teach kids how to make crafts and recipes inspired by holiday traditions around the world, whether it’s Diwali, Hanukkah or Christmas. From a simple garland chain to a more complicated cutout lantern, there’s something for every age and ability level.
Bake Christmas Tree Cookies
When it comes to holiday baking, there are so many recipes to choose from! Here’s a fun one that’s sure to stand out from the crowd and simple enough to do with even young kids. Go to Page 6 of “Get Baking for Christmas” and follow the step-by-step instructions. Little bakers can help with cutting, decorating and (of course!) devouring these yummy little frosted trees.
There you go! We hope these books help you and your family unwrap fun all throughout the month of December! Be sure to follow us on Instagram to get even more inspiration this season. Happy Holidays!
