Watching Christmas movies is one of our favorite Christmas traditions, as is baking treats for “Santa Claus”. We love watching the vacation movies we saw when we were children Often the movies you watch with your family as a child eventually become the ones you show your own children when you are a parent. But we also appreciate older, classic Christmas movies and newer releases. Whether you’re rewatching a favorite or trying something new, watching a holiday movie with your kids while you all curl up on the couch with hot chocolate could be the true definition of bliss.
But you don’t want to spoil the moment by scrolling and scrolling through all your different streaming services trying to find the perfect choice. From true classics like It’s a Wonderful Life to family favorites like Elf to newer stories like Jingle Jangle, we’ve compiled a list of the best family Christmas movies to watch next. We can guarantee that your child’s next favorite movie is in here (and maybe your old favourite, too). So squirt some extra marshmallows in your cocoa and read through 25 Christmas Movies All Kids Must See.
