With some big names like Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, it was bound to be a hit with people of all ages. Following on from its success, Christmas Chronicles 2 has now made it to out televisions and is available to stream on Netflix. This is the perfect film to snuggle up on the sofa with a a cup of hot chocolate on a Sunday afternoon surrounded by your decorations.

As mentioned, there are a number of classic Christmas films that never get dull such as the Grinch, Elf and Home Alone. Many adults remember a lot of these films from when they were younger and are now able to enjoy watching them with their own children.

Why not set aside a few hours one weekend to have a movie afternoon or night and watch some of your favourite festive flicks to get you ready for the big day.
