It’s that time of year! We put our tree up and have our music Christmas playing!
As you take some time off next week, you may be looking for a good family movie to watch.
Here are our top Holiday Movies. You can check them out from your library, find some of them on Netflix, or Amazon Prime – or click on the titles below to purchase them. They’d make a nice Christmas gift for your kids or spouse – or as a special surprise from your “Elf on the Shelf!“
Here are our favorites, in no particular order:
.
Elf
If you want to laugh, this is the one you choose!

Christmas Vacation
Another movie that will make you laugh!
