Tips for making a christmas activity book

  • Publish Christmas books by early October; KDP review plus holiday shipping eats November.
  • Use an original Santa's helper elf or reindeer with a name instead of any character from a holiday film.
  • A 24-page advent version, one puzzle a day, gives buyers a reason to start the book on December 1st.
