Christmas movies are awesome! I love them. I was looking at a bunch of the movies I want the Goof to view this year, and decided, you know what would be fun…. 25 days of Kids Christmas movies. But you know what else I wanted to do- 25 days of Christmas crafts. Then I had one of those moments of brilliance. The ones that come once every few years for me. What if I tied in Christmas crafts to a movie so that each day we did a craft, and then that evening, we could watch the movie?
So I sat down and made this list, and thought, you know, maybe others would like to do this as well. So I am here to share it with you. For the crafts, I will link to the original post/blog when possible, otherwise I will link to a pin. Some of these movies/shows can be found on Netflix (marked with an *) but I will also link to movies on Amazon when possible. (Amazon links are affiliate links. More on those at the bottom of this post.)
