I love to watch Holiday movies, and so do my family. These movies are fun, entertaining and full of colors, perfect mood boosters after the busy weekdays and a nice way to celebrate the holiday season with family and friends. When the days are getting shorter and not enough outdoor playtime left for my kiddos in these dark winter evenings, then often to overcome the boredom, we gather in front of our fireplace with a big bowl of caramel popcorn and warm cocoa cups, playing our favorite Christmas movies on Television, hmm, such a bliss.

Here, my family’s favorite 10 Christmas themed movies:

HOME ALONE- 

You will never too old to watch this again and again. Really, I forgot the count.

An eight-year-old troublemaker must protect his house from a pair of burglars when he is accidentally left home alone by his family during Christmas vacation.

THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS-

A movie that tells about Halloween and Christmas, beautifully created.

IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE-

The classic feel-good movie.
