Even though it is not quite winter yet,
we are feeling very snowy.
We have been reading “The Snowy Day” all through autumn,
& now we finally got out all the other winter books.
A few favourites from our winter book basket are:
Winter by Gerda Muller (we really love this book, & the other seasons as well!),
The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats,
Frederick by Leo Lionni ( german & english )
Christmas in Exeter Street by Diana Hendry
Weihnachtsmann & Weihnachtsmama (german)
& Emily ‘s favourite book “A Story About Elise” (german) ,
it’s about a girl who, on christmas eve, wants to prove
that she can pee standing up just like her brothers,
but things don’t go as planned , & when she gets stuck in
the toilet the family of seven have to re-arrange their Christmas plans.
We also love these wooden number puzzles, fuzzy felt balls,
& musical instruments perfect for singing & making
a lot of noise during a dark winter evening!
In Germany it is snowy already,
& we can’t wait to go.
Is it snowing where you live?
What are your favourites right now?
Have a lovely day,

Your photos are always so beautiful. Your home is so warm and inviting! It was -7C here this morning. But, since it’s still getting up to 16C during the day, we’re not yet in Winter mode. Although, I insist on changing our seasonal “preschool” learning board colors to winter blue with snowflakes this weekend!
I tried to embed the link to our board, but it didn’t work…here it is:

Hier ist vom Wetter her schon tiefster Winter
Man muss echt schon Angst haben auf den Straßen!
