Rock Your Holiday Fun with Rudolph and Friends!
A fun movie theme can be a delightful way to get ready for the holidays with kids. A Christmas movie lets you sit back and relax with your children. And Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a great pick!
Watching a holiday movie with my boys has always brought back special memories from my childhood. I remember getting so excited when Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas and A Charlie Brown Christmas was scheduled to air. My mom would make popcorn and hot chocolate for all of us to enjoy. I thought Hermey the Misfit Elf (“I want to be a dentist!”) was so cute. I could watch those shows again and again!
Of course, when I had children of my own, I wanted to recreate those experiences. And I love finding and creating new ways to take our watch parties to the next level!
