With Christmas just around the corner, I am brainstorming gifts I can give my kids that aren’t toys. I love giving them the gift of experiences, art supplies, and most of all: books!

Enter Bookroo once again. Bookroo is a book subscription box for kids. You can choose how many boxes you’d like to get and whether you want board books or picture books. Bookroo’s customer service is spectacular and you can freeze your subscription if you need to.

Since the girls were 2 and 4, we have always chosen the picture book box. The books included in the boxes are always unique, the pictures interesting and vibrant, and the stories are fun and easy for kids to follow.

In this box, we got two picture books: A Dog Is A Dog by Stephen Shaskan and Mother Goose’s Pajama Party by Danna Smith. The books come wrapped in beautiful wrapping paper, which makes the surprise element even more exciting for my kids. A Dog Is A Dog is perfect for a three year old. The pattern is very simple and the story is short and silly. Lillian loved this book. Mother Goose’s Pajama Party is a sort of roll-call of Mother Goose nursery rhyme characters. It was fun seeing them incorporated into one bedtime story. As a bonus, at the end of the book several traditional Mother Goose nursery rhymes are included.

As a special gift to my readers, you can use the code BFMCDERMOTT for 25% off any multi-month subscription (3,6, or 12 months). One redemption per family. Valid for new customers only. Existing customers may use for the purchase of one gift subscription. Valid 11/24 – midnight PST 11/27. These subscription boxes are great for family members to buy for kids, I also like to buy them for birthday and baby shower gifts.

Gather with your family and order some Bookroo subscriptions while you recover from your giant meal today! Happy Thanksgiving!

Disclosure: Bookroo sent me this box for free to review on the blog, but I have subscribed to this service off and on for two years and all thoughts and opinions are mine, all mine.
