Gentle Christmas movies

[Anonymous]

My kids still love the Rankin and Bass specials which we watch every year (we have them on DVD). Santa Claus is coming to town, Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

We have a large inflatable Christmas penguin in our front yard and we've named him Topper (after the penguin in Santa Claus is coming to Town). The kids love that.

Be careful with this one. The Abominable Snowman can be pretty scary for some kids.

The Snowman (Amazon Prime) - this is exceptionally gentle. I don’t think there is any talking, just classical music and my child found it hilarious
The Snowy Day (Amazon Prime) - gets bonus points for diversity and Boyz II Men
Trash Truck Christmas (Netflix) - I didn’t really pay attention while it was on but it seemed enjoyable enough

+1 for The Snowman - that's the most gentle, soothing Christmas movie I can think of for a little one.

Curious George - a very monkey Christmas

Agee—my son found both Frosty and Rudolph too intense. He loved Elmo
Saves Christmas and the Snowy Day when he was 3 and 4. Also Disney’s Once Upon A Christmas and A Very Merry Pooh Year.

Omg that’s klaus not llama

My sensitive 5 year old couldn't make it through the first 10 minutes of Klaus. It may get better from there, but the beginning was too much for her.

Also The Peanuts movie. Not a Christmas movie but a lot of it is over the winter months. I just love how innocent and sweet it is compared to most kids movies.
The Star is another good suggestion.
