THE BEST HALLOWEEN BOOKS FOR KIDS 

What are your favorite Halloween traditions with children?

One of my favorite Halloween traditions is reading children’s Halloween books all October long. In fact, I’m a sucker for holiday books.  And rotating through our holiday stories is a year-long favorite activity. 

We love doing our 25 Stories to Christmas Book Countdown, but now that our Halloween collection has grown, I’m thinking we need to start reading one Halloween book a night in October. My children love Halloween books!

INEXPENSIVE HALLOWEEN BOOKS FOR KIDS 

I’m always on the lookout for cheap holiday books, so whenever I’m at a thrift store, I’ll browse the shelves quickly.

I also like to add a new book each year. Amazon Prime, Home Goods, Marshalls, and thrift stores are my favorite places to shop for books.

Unfortunately, our library doesn’t carry many of these cute books, so I order them from Amazon.
