'Tis the season to bake, craft, and celebrate! This kid-approved big book of Christmas ideas was created by the editors and Test Kitchen chefs at Good Housekeeping and is filled with super fun projects, recipes and activities that will keep kids enchanted (and busy!) all season long. Three chapters highlight holiday essentials --celebrating (Plan a Christmas movie marathon!), crafting (Discover creative gift wrapping and make a gift for everyone on your list!), and dozens of simple sweets. (Cookies for Santa Claus? We've got you covered!)

Inside the ultimate holiday playbook for kids you'll find:

• Festive traditions from around the world to share with friends and family (Why do we decorate trees? What's the story behind St. Nick?)
• Super-fun activities (Plan a Christmas movie marathon! Make your own advent calendar! Go on a holiday scavenger hunt! Create a Christmas time capsule with the family! )
• Cute crafts you can make all on your own like DIY ornaments, garlands, and stockings.
• Recipes for yummy holiday treats--cookies, cakes, and of course, hot chocolate!
