It’s no secret that having kids really lets you enjoy the holidays more. I love decorating and doing as many festive things as possible with our kids during September-December. Halloween is by far my favorite holiday so I really love embracing all the fun traditions. When Henry was 16 months old I started collecting Halloween books for him to read throughout the month of October (similar to the 25 books of Christmas). It’s so fun to add more to our collection each year and now that Evelyn is old enough for books, they have really enjoyed reading them together. Unlike the Christmas books in our collection, the Halloween books are mostly short reads so they hold the kids’ attention span (even it that means I have to read each one five times in a row).
Here is my toddler approved Halloween book list!
What are some of your kids favorite books for Halloween? Let me know in the comments below!
I totally agree, kids really do make the holidays even better! This is a great idea to start collecting holiday books and then pull them out every year and this list is great! Have you heard of The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything? It's an oldie but another good one!
I haven't heard of that one! Thank you for the suggestion! Definitely going to add to my list 🙂
We LOVE Spooky Pookie by Sandra Boynton!
I just looked that one up on Amazon and added to my cart. My kids will love it. Thank you for sharing!
We love 5 Black Cats also The little old lady who wasn't afraid of anything by Linda Williams
Love, love, love this list! I'm always looking for new books for my girl!
Love all this! Great post
These are great Halloween books! Thanks for sharing.

Having kids really does make holidays more fun! My kids are a big fan of Five Black Cats. They also really like Room on the Broom.
So fun! Kiddie books are the best.
Such a great list of books! We love our story time around here and some of these are new to me, definitely going to take a look at them.
5 Little Pumpkins, such a cute one! SO fun that we had a lot of different choices, but a couple that were similar! 🙂
Adorable picks! Love getting new holiday books for the kiddos 🙂

Absolutely great books! We have a halloween bookshelf at the moment but it's a bit different to this one. I love finding out about new books. x
Love the book list for Halloween! I enjoy reading books with my daughter before bed, and I agree Holidays are lots of fun now that I have a little one to share it with 🙂
Cute! I don't think we have read any of these. I might have to make a trip to the library this week sometime. Thanks for sharing these!
Great round up! I am always looking for good Halloween books to read to my kids and get them in the spirit! We love Room on the Broom!
These would be great in my classroom! I teach English as a second language to first graders and these would really help inspire them for Halloween activities and writing!
I'm loving these book ideas! My son recently started preschool and I'm now OBSESSED with ordering scholastic books for him! Ha!
This is seriously so cute, I adore this! I want to buy some Halloween books just for the heck of it 😉 xx Adaleta Avdic
Oh what darling items for baby! I have recently discovered Finn and Emma pajamas and I couldn't love them more. Also the Itzy Ritzy cart cover was a wonderful baby item for us.
