Anyone who knows me knows I bloody love a good family Christmas movie. There’s absolutely nothing that gets me in the festive mood quicker (apart from maybe a Baileys or three)!
I love filling up the popcorn bowl, making hot chocolate and snuggling under a blanket on the sofa. The only problem is we then spend the next half hour arguing about which Christmas film we should watch.
So to help you (and us) decide what to watch I’ve put together a list of the best family Christmas movies. There’s classic family Christmas movies like It’s a Wonderful Life on Amazon Prime. Funny laugh out loud films like Elf. Romantic Christmas movies like The Holiday. Animated movies like Disney’s A Christmas Carol on Disney+. And controversial choices like Die Hard – is it really a Christmas movie?

There really is nothing better than settling down to a marathon of family Christmas movies especially when it’s so cold and dark outside. Tell me what’s your favourite Christmas movie in the comments below and I’ll get it added to the list. I’ve just been recommended A Bad Moms Christmas so that’s next on my list. Although it might not be suitable for the kids 😉
Oh and don’t forget to take a photo of you all snuggled up on the sofa, it’s one of my recommended Christmas photo ideas.
