Holiday Poems For Kids

Below is poetry written about different holidays. Each special day of celebration has its own section. There are also poems that we think represent the spirit of the different days of festivity. We start with Christmas, and move on to Thanksgiving, Halloween and on through the months. So, set back with a hot cup of cocoa (if it’s winter) or a cold glass of lemonade (if it’s summer), and enjoy an enchanted journey through the poetic festival with the page-turning power of rhyme and verse.
