Personalized Christmas Books to Make the Holidays Special!

Updated: November 2019

Start a family Christmas tradition with these personalized Christmas books for kids! #christmasbooks #holidaybooks #bookgifts #christmastraditionsWhen it comes to shopping for Christmas gifts, I am always looking for special gifts that really mean something. Growing up, my parents always bought ornaments for my sister and I to add to our collection, and I continue that tradition now with my daughter. I have also made it a tradition to purchase a new Christmas book for my daughter every year. This year, I was thrilled to be introduced to the beautiful personalized children’s books from Put Me in the Story, and I am so excited that they offer fun Christmas books! I decided to gather a list of some of my favorites (as well as one which would make a great holiday gift for the grandparents!).

  1. I love these! Every year my kids get a present the day after Thanksgiving. This present has pjs, Christmas books, Chirstmas movies, or family games. All stuff we can use throughout the Chirstmas season. I think I will include one of these books for each of my kids. Which one would you recommend for an 8 year old boy and which would you recommend for a 4 year old girl?

  2. I remember I had a personalized book when I was little and it was one of my favorite things. Such a sweet idea! I definitely want to get one of these for my nieces!

    • I love the personalized book I received as a kid, and I still have it! They are such fun gifts and keepsakes!

  3. Oh My Goodness. These are so cute! My son is still a little too young to get the awesome factor of having his name in a book but I am going to keep this so I can refer back to it in the future! Very cool!
