Perhaps I'm biased but when I was a seventh-grader going through her parent's divorce I found comfort in this book. Every single word even the long descriptions of corn.

Now, having received my own copy for Christmas I was able to laugh and cry all over again. Thank you, Dewey.

"I did it as a musical when I left drama school. Back in ’76, I did it as a Christmas pantomime [laughing] and so the movie is kind of indelible in my head. I wish I could say I played one of the main roles. I was just a chocolate tree."

"I change my selection every six months depending on my mood, and I’m in a Christmas mood. I just think it’s a really great piece of cinema and a great piece of storytelling and a sublime performance at the heart of it, and reminds us all about our shared humanity."

If He had not come is the really good short story. It has a really meaning for Christmas. What would our world be like “If He Had Not Come”? This show you though a boy named Bobby as he experienced this.
What if Jesus was not born? Would we have the world we have now? We can draw anything from the words “If I hadn't come”. Would we still be celebrating Christmas or the birth of Jesus?

This book is good for children and their parents. It good for bedtime. I would even say it even good for the holiday season and around Jesus birth. If you like a good mean full book this one is good for that.
  
The Grinch (2018)
The Grinch (2018)
2018 | Animation, Family, Sci-Fi
Illumination's sweet adaptation of The Grinch (2018) opts not to shrink the title character's heart the whole three sizes. #Review
Prematurely Christmassy – and I don’t mean that in a Grinchy way – Illumination’s take on “How The Grinch Stole Christmas!” is as warm and sweet as a hot mug of cocoa that’s mostly marshmallow. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but it definitely feels like this is a movie that will find its real home on home video next Christmas rather than unceremoniously dumped in early November where it's left looking longingly at the distant, cosily festive light of December, much the same way its title character regards the town of Whoville from afar....

Netflix and chill?? I find it more Netflix and stress out about having nothing to watch.
I find this a tricky one. Although finding a series can be quite easy the selection available is pretty poor. One minute your watching your favourite series and the next it's not available right as your about to finish it.
Want to watch a super retro film?? Don't bother. At Christmas you cannot get The nightmare before Christmas, the Grinch or elf. I mean that's pretty standard for Xmas viewing right?? ??
However with 2 kids there's usually something they can watch, and the Netflix original series are usually really good to watch.
