From old classics (A Christmas Carol) to newer holiday hits (Klaus), these are the 12 best kids Christmas movies to watch this year.

These are the best Family Christmas movies to watch according to my Christmas-living family which includes kids from three years old to 13.

As Kwanzaa is a celebration of African-American heritage and culture, one of the latest and arguably best children’s movies to do this is the Disney- Pixar movie Soul, available on Disney Plus. While not focused at all on the holiday of Kwanzaa, the film is family-friendly and definitely pays homage to African-American culture.

With the holiday season officially here, it might be time to pull out some movies from your physical collection or search for on a streaming service. This short list includes family favorites and some that only adults should watch due to their rating.
