The live action version of the loved children’s novel by Dr. Seuss, “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” is the epitome of the holiday season and a must watch for families this time of year.

This infamous 2003 comedy film is the perfect way to fill a home with laughter this winter season. Will Ferrell’s hilarious portrayal of Buddy the Elf has made him a household favorite.

The Polar Express is one of the most iconic winter films of this generation. Many people grew up watching this book adaptation and the movie is a great way to bring back the holiday nostalgia.
