15 best New Year books for kids

Of course, a book is the best gift, and it has remained with them for more than a dozen years. Naturally, the book “under the herringbone” should be about the New Year. And, of course, I want to wrap this gift in beautiful paper and, having tied it with a bow, put it with the rest of the gifts so that the child, nervously rustling with wrapping paper, solemnly opened it on December 31st.

But think how much stronger the feelings associated with the holiday will be if you read this book to your baby 2-3 days before the New Year. After all, it is books (and, perhaps, cartoons with films) that set kids up for a fairy tale and make them anticipate the magic of the holiday …
