127 Christmas Cartoons To Watch Over The Holidays

For the most perfect Christmas, you’ll need: your family and loved ones, a gleaming Christmas tree, a crackling fireplace, fresh, powdery snow covering the treetops behind your window, and… Christmas cartoons! Once the duck is eaten, the gifts unwrapped, and the most impressive snowman is built, it’s time to grab a collective cup of hot cocoa, put on hand-knitted woolen socks, and turn on the screen to watch some festive, magical cartoons. A heartwarming, beautifully-drawn story with kind and loveable characters is sure to unite the family – from the smallest ones to the wisest – even more so. And, to save you the trouble of browsing for the perfect Christmas animation, we’ve gathered the best ones into this list. This way, you can really invest your time building the most elaborate snowman instead of googling for cartoons! 

And this list does have it all – from the very jazzy and mellow A Charlie Brown Christmas from 1965 to the positively spooky A Nightmare Before Christmas, you’ll find an animated movie that perfectly caters to your needs. Some are based on classical Christmas stories, interwoven with morals and valuable lessons (good ones, I might add!), while others are entirely modern and never-before-seen tales. Ones are suitable for toddlers – those are probably the most beautiful visually, while the rest of them are perfect for the whole family. Whichever you pick, it’ll add charm to your perfect Christmas day. 

Now, scroll just a bit further and see our Christmas cartoons list for yourself. Gather a family meeting, pick the one (or the ones) to watch, relax and unwind. Be sure to share this magical list with your friends, and don’t forget to tell us which of these Christmas movies you liked the most!
