Who doesnt love The Elf?  I cant have a movie list without it, though! The elf, unfortunately, has language.  Not a lot so we do watch it anyway.

Sweet take on Charles Dickens book. We love the Muppets. Sometimes their shows have language but this one does not.  The ghosts can be scary for younger kids.

We definitely prefer the original. Totally clean and wholesome. I know your kids will balk at the black and whiteness of it all. But bribe them with popcorn and candy and within minutes they'll be absorbed.

Wonderfully cinematic version of Lewis' iconic story.  Great for all year 'round but we always watch at cmas.  Probably better for older kids.  But a clean film!
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Tom Hanks.  A christmas train.  Absolute wholesomeness.  Wanna make the night a little more fun?  Make some tickets to punch. Prepare some hot cocoa.  Grab some bells:  All aboard the polar express!!

Really cute movie with this girl as the hero.  There are some intense scenes.  Some talk from adults about kissing, but it's humorous and ridiculous.

If you've never watched the Veggie Tales, you are in for a treat!  Always funny and lighthearted with great music, your children (and YOU) will be captivated.
A Very Veggie Christmas

Claymation at it's best.  Adorable, shorter film.
