‘Tis the season of running around and getting organized for the holidays. Trees are going up (okay, eventually), that little elf guy is ready and we’ve got our shopping list in full swing. Then we’ve got the friends and family visits to entertain. Hey, we got this right?
Amidst the flurry of activity and hoping that no one comes down with the flu or something, I, for one, love to catch a few seasonal shows to keep in the spirit of the season with the kids.
So, grab your egg nog and your jammies. Here are just a few holiday shows worth checking out now on Netflix Canada… (pssst, a subscription is a great gift idea too!)

Found your post interesting to read. I think you should also write an article about dog bowl suppliers This article is really very interesting and effective.
We stumbled on Arthur Christmas one year and have been big fans ever since. Grampa Santa with his bag of “toys” made us pause the movie so my daughter could recover she was laughing so hard 🙂
