I don't care how many kids you have, you don't not realize until mid-flight that you're short a kid! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920869 Mon, 16 Nov 2020 13:49:43 +0000 yellowbeach 2920869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: I still cry every time I see Home Alone - and I'm 42. The idea of being forgotten on Christmas is just so so sad. Lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920859 Mon, 16 Nov 2020 09:37:51 +0000 Chuckles 2920859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: I'm so jealous that your kids like Elf! We introduced it to DS last Christmas when he was 6, and he just couldn't get into it. Maybe this year he'll like it?<br /> He does *love* Home Alone and the new animated Grinch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920858 Mon, 16 Nov 2020 09:12:21 +0000 Mrs. Carrot 2920858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you haven't checked out yet, Jingle Jangle just came out on Netflix and it's magical. I really hope it becomes a classic like the others. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920846 Sun, 15 Nov 2020 15:35:24 +0000 erinbaderin 2920846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks to everybody who made me feel like my kids were old enough for Elf, they are DYING laughing (mostly at the physical comedy, they’ve apparently never seen anything funnier than Buddy getting hit by a car, but I’ll take it). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920702 Wed, 11 Nov 2020 10:50:32 +0000 JennyPenny 2920702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: Have you all seen the new Frosty (2005)? It used to be on Netflix and I thought it was super cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920683 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 20:53:53 +0000 Anagram 2920683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>And my kids love the new Grinch and the original Grinch. And the original Frosty (they are obsessed, I don’t know why). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920682 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 20:53:04 +0000 Anagram 2920682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JennyPenny: a really, super cute Christmas movie came out last year called Noelle, on Disney Plus. It’s a lighthearted comedy, but it is all about Santa Passing away and his son inheriting the job and not being enthused about it—which is where Noelle comes in, who tries to show him how awesome being santa is (I’m leaving out the second half, but it’s cute). Anyway, it’s G rated and my kids loved it. If they believe in Santa, you could just say before it starts that it’s all totally fictional, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920648 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 11:58:09 +0000 autumnlove 2920648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love Home Alone and Home Alone 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920637 Tue, 10 Nov 2020 07:13:49 +0000 PinkElephant 2920637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: My kids want to watch Home Alone year round, but DH insists it’s a Christmas only movie (he also says Die Hard is his favorite Christmas movie, haha).</p> <p>Last year I considered Elf and The Santa Clause but I wondered if those might raise too many questions. I didn’t know there was a new Grinch. My four year old is terrified of the Grinch and is still talking about him from last Christmas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920621 Mon, 09 Nov 2020 03:42:15 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2920621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Klaus :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920595 Sat, 07 Nov 2020 14:08:54 +0000 SweetCaroline 2920595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: oh man, how did I miss Home Alone. So good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920591 Sat, 07 Nov 2020 13:00:52 +0000 erinbaderin 2920591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JennyPenny: Yes! I think it came out in 2018? It’s very cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920590 Sat, 07 Nov 2020 11:35:17 +0000 JennyPenny 2920590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: woah! thank you for this clarification. I didn't realize there was a new grinch that wasn't the Jim Carrey one. I did end up buying the original yesterday cause the blu ray price dropped to $7. Hard to beat that! </p> <p>Thanks for all these suggestions everyone. I've built out a nice list and I'm really excited to start this tradition with my kids and even see some movies that are new to me :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920589 Sat, 07 Nov 2020 11:27:48 +0000 Fawn 2920589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love The Tangerine Bear! It's not a popular movie at all, but super cute and we watch it at Christmas every year. </p> <p>I love all these suggestions as DD is 18 months so I'd like to start a Christmas movie tradition with her as well! Definitely have to try Arthur Christmas and I feel like she will like The Polar Express, though I'm not a big fan. </p> <p>We watch The Nightmare Before Christmas all year as we are big fans (me and my DH have Jack and Sally tattoos) but to me this is a Halloween movie and not really a Christmas movie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920582 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 19:50:17 +0000 erinbaderin 2920582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The original Grinch and the new Grinch. Hard pass on the Jim Carrey one. The Snowman is so wonderful, we watch that year-round. Loving all the people saying Elf, I’m going to try to introduce the kids to that this year. I stand by my opinion that the Nightmare Before Christmas is NOT a Christmas movie but we introduced it at Halloween and my four year old loves it. Rudolph and the Muppet Christmas Carol. I’ve just realized that most of the Christmas movies my kids like are like 40 years old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920580 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 18:35:07 +0000 jhd 2920580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JennyPenny: DS (6) has been asking when we can watch Mickeys Christmas Carol again. We usually watch it on Christmas Eve. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920578 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 17:44:25 +0000 Bmaja 2920578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely the new grinch in our house... I love “Miracle on 34th st” from like the 90’s, “Meet me in St Louis” - “Have yourself a merry lil Christmas” with Judy Garland gets me everytime! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920572 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 16:30:42 +0000 LadyDi 2920572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really love Arthur Christmas and The Muppet Christmas Carol. DS loves, loves, loves the newest grinch. DH is a fan of the original Grinch and the Jim Carrey version (which I hate). I also really love the polar express, the animation is a little weird but made up by Tom Hanks voicing so many of the characters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920562 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 10:27:23 +0000 hellobeeboston 2920562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Home Alone<br /> Elf<br /> Polar Express<br /> Charlie Brown Christmas (this is probably more of a fave for me, but I make my kids watch it, and we LOVE LOVE the soundtrack and listen to it on repeat)<br /> The Santa Clause </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920561 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 10:04:57 +0000 JMOM 2920561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love Arthur Christmas at my house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920558 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 09:16:54 +0000 josina 2920558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love the newest Grinch, The Santa Clause, Home Alone, Polar Express.</p> <p>Unfortunately DS loves the Nightmare before Christmas, I am not a fan.</p> <p>The Star is super cute too if you want a "true story of Christmas" option. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920555 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 08:10:13 +0000 wrkbrk 2920555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is only one correct answer.

We introduced Elf last year and they loved it. We started Home Alone and thankfully the kids didn't like it in the first 10 minutes because it was a bit much for their age. Oops. We also do Frosty, Rudolph, both original Grinch and the latest Grinch. When do you think kids are old enough for The Christmas Story? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920547 Thu, 05 Nov 2020 23:40:57 +0000 ALV91711 2920547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetCaroline: ELF has been a favourite for DS for a couple years. </p> <p>Grinch and Rudolph are Christmas staples. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920546 Thu, 05 Nov 2020 23:03:35 +0000 greencraftycello 2920546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Snowman! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920534 Thu, 05 Nov 2020 21:14:07 +0000 JennyPenny 2920534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetCaroline: Lol, well I've actually never seen it so no judgement here :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-holiday-kids-movie#post-2920532 Thu, 05 Nov 2020 21:06:38 +0000 SweetCaroline 2920532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We actually love Elf too.
