There are only a few days left to watch Christmas movies before the big day so here are the ones we have been watching at my house. Dora’s Christmas Carol Adventure: One day my daughter came home from preschool and kept going on and on about a fox named Swiper who was “on the naughty list”. I had no idea who Swiper was, but apparently he was going to swipe all of our Christmas presents and my daughter seemed very concerned. I did a quick Google search to find out who this nefarious character was and I discovered he was on Dora. I checked out a copy to watch at home since Swiper had made such an impression and it was really cute. My daughter’s concerns were valid; Swiper was a naughty fox, indeed. Luckily, Dora and her friends help teach him a lesson. We also enjoyed some old classics like Santa Claus is Comin' to Town and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. I wasn’t sure if the Winter Warlock and the Abominable Snowman would be too scary for a 2-year-old, but once she saw their softer sides they became her favorite parts of the movies. I was super excited to watch Rugrats: Turkey and Mistletoe. I actually checked this one out for myself since I grew up on Nickelodeon, but it was an added bonus that my daughters also loved it. Other favorites were: Strawberry Shortcake: Berry Merry Christmas , Peanuts: Snow Days, and Mickey Saves Santa .
