Dd enjoys the newer Grinch film, all the Home Alone films, Elf, The Santa Clause and, although it isn't technically a film, Robin Robin on Netflix by Aardman which I think is rather brilliant too.

Arthur Christmas was a big hit at that age with my 2 boys

The Muppets Christmas Carol! Fantastic stuff.

Yes! I'm 35 and this brings back such happy childhood memories. I still know all the words.

Arthur Christmas is great for little ones!

autumnmakesmehappy · 01/10/2023 07:22

The Snowman ⛄️ ♥️

Robin robin on Netflix is wonderful, it’s fab little puppets rather than animation and a lovely story.

Klaus in our house, DS loved it so much last year we must have watched it every day of December.

My DC enjoyed the Gruffalo and Gruffalo's child adaptations at this age. Although not strictly Christmas, they have a nice wintry feel to them.

My 4 year old LOVES the Grinch. She also loves the Nightmare before Christmas and watches it at Halloween AND Christmas. Grin

My 3 year old loves dogs and has been watching super buddies then discovered that they're a Christmas one called Santa paws. Its actually watchable for an adult with a nice spot of redemption for the doc brown actor from back to the future and the puppy who stole the thanks giving turkey. I also sit there amazed at how well trained all of the puppies are, lol

Mysa74 · 01/10/2023 07:44

We'll also watch Santa Claus: the movie and Muppet Christmas carol nearer the time.

sipsqueak · 01/10/2023 07:50

Don't forget Stick Man

Whatelsecouldibecalled · 01/10/2023 07:52

Arthur Christmas. The absolute best!

Whatelsecouldibecalled · 01/10/2023 07:52

Muppet Christmas carol also a favourite

EmotionallyUnavailableGuacamole · 01/10/2023 07:54

My four year old LOVES The Polar Express. Don’t think we’ve stopped watching it since last Christmas.

Landlubber2019 · 01/10/2023 07:56

Polar express and Arthur Christmas definitely

berrypop · 01/10/2023 09:34

My four-year-old loves The Christmas Chronicles (1&2) and Disney's Twice Upon a Christmas.

AlpacaRabbit · 01/10/2023 10:29

Not specifically a Christmas film but a beautiful one! A minuscule adventure.

If you can find it Robbie the Reindeer, and Olive the other reindeer.
At that age my grandson also like Prancer.

LaRevolution · 01/10/2023 11:49

One of mine loved The Star at that age - it's very gentle.
