As ever, this blog is not just for the little ones in your life - it's for you too! I'm gonna go ahead and assume that you wouldn't reject a hot cuppa tea and a good book by the fire so here are a few ideas for getting your hygge on this winter too!

Nothing is more cozy than a village mystery and the first selection by Louise Penny offers three Inspector Gamache tales taking place in small town Quebec. Next up "Le Grand Meaulnes" is a beautiful French classic about a boy who comes across a "lost estate" in the deep of winter and his search for the feelings of childhood warmth and magic that this space created for him. Finally, explore more about the whole idea of Hygge with the last selection which offers practical ideas for integrating coziness into your home and life.

I learned a new term.... would you say it like HUG? (since it means cozy togetherness). Some of those books would be delightful to read together.

Ahahaha! That makes good sense! I believe it's pronounced "hoog-uh" but I really like the idea of "hug!"
