Best Books to Read Aloud About Winter Clothing

Read Every Day Challenge

Winter mornings in our house mean an endless search for mitten pairs, the puzzling difficulty of putting boots on the right foot, and the time consuming search for the perfect Winter hat for the day. It is an exhausting process that leaves me flustered and overheated.

Once we get outside, however, I think Winter clothes are some of the cutest kids clothes around. The hats alone are worth starting another Instagram feed.

This week’s a Read a Day theme is Winter Clothing and I have some fun read aloud suggestions!

Monday: Read a Book about Winter Clothes

Froggy Gets Dressed by Jonathan London

The repetitive language and goofy nature of this Froggy tale makes it a fabulous read aloud. It is snowing outside and Froggy can’t wait to go out and play. He gets dressed in some warm winter gear, but silly Froggy keeps forgetting important parts of the Winter gear. For everyone who has ever dealt with the struggle of getting the little kids dressed will appreciate this story.

Tuesday: Read a Book about Winter Mittens

The Mitten by Jan Brett

This is a classic for a reason. The Mitten tells the story of a group of animals that find a mitten lost in the woods and one by one crawl inside. Jan Brett’s illustrations are delightful and detail the comical coziness of the mitten. One of our favorite parts is the predictive detail in each illustration that tells you what’s coming next. If don’t already have this one on your shelf – I’d say it’s a must have.

Thursday: Read a Book about Boots

Eloise Skates! by Kay Thompson

Forgive me, because I realize that Easy Readers and Eloise are not at the top of the awards list, but my kids love these books. I have 2 kindergarteners on the brink of reading and so our library basket is full of Easy Readers and Eloise is a favorite. She is full of spunk and sass and lives in our current hometown of NYC. This Winter adventure is one of our current favorites.

Friday: Read a Book about a Scarf

Lost. Found. By Marsha Diane Arnold

This nearly wordless adventure follows a scarf that is lost and found and lost and found again. As it travels from animal to animal, it gets twisted, tangled and utilized in different and creative ways until it is no longer a scarf but a big ball of yarn. This is such a simple and fun book.

Saturday: Read a Book about Snowmen

First Snow by Bomi Park

This stunningly illustrated book tells the story of a little girl who wakes up to find fresh snow outside. I adore the stark black and white paintings with just a pop of red. It’s a simple wintry adventure story full of snowflakes, snowmen, and imagination.
