Blogmas Day Eight - Five Disney Christmas Films You Must Watch

-
Christmas films are obviously one of the best ways to get into the festive spirit and to make it even better? Disney Christmas films. For today’s Blogmas, I thought I would talk you through five Disney Christmas films you should watch this season.

Nightmare Before Christmas

Okay so it’s the age old controversial argument. ‘Is Nightmare Before Christmas a Halloween or Christmas film?’ Well I say it’s both. Why should it be limited to one of the holidays when you can join Jack and Sally on their adventures throughout Halloween and Christmas? Plus, if you don’t watch it during Christmas then you wouldn’t get to celebrate with Sandy Claws! It’s the perfect film for people who love both Halloween and Christmas and that’s definitely never a bad thing.

Olaf’s Frozen Adventure 

This is perhaps the cutest and most heartwarming 20 odd minutes you’ll spend in your life. Once Olaf realises Anna and Elsa don’t have any Christmas traditions of their own; he goes on an adventure to try and get them a tradition. However, this is a Disney film so it wouldn’t be without it’s catchy songs, hiccups along the way and of course; the most wonderful and heartwarming ending ever. Despite only being a short - you must have this film on your Disney Christmas watch list!

Mickey’s Christmas Carol

A Christmas Carol (as I mentioned in my Blogmas Day Five post) is obviously something that can’t be missed out of your Christmas viewing list. Thankfully, Disney have you covered so you can enjoy both Disney characters and A Christmas Carol in one with the creation of Mickey’s Christmas Carol. With our favourite faces (Scrooge McDuck, Donald, Mickey etc) bringing to life the morality tale of Christmas - what’s not to love about Mickey’s Christmas Carol?


Beauty and the Beast: Enchanted Christmas 

In this Christmas special, we get to return to visit Belle, Beast, Chip and our other friends as we’re whisked back in time for an enchanting Christmas tale. The film is just over an hour long and is packed full of beautiful songs, familiar faces and lots of Christmas goodness. It wouldn’t be without it’s difficulties and Forte who is adamant on putting a stop to Belle and Beast’s budding relationship and to the Christmas joy that Belle wishes to spread in the castle. 

The Santa Clause Films

Tim Allen as Santa. The North Pole. An array of legendary figures. You really can’t go wrong with The Santa Clause films during Christmas time. And yes I mean all three of the films. From number one when Scott becomes Santa, number two where Santa needs to find his Mrs Claus and of course number three - bringing the in laws to the North Pole as well as facing Jack Frost. The Santa Clause trilogy are the perfect family Christmas films and personally, I love to watch them every year during Christmas.


I love Disney Christmas movies - as you can probably tell. Which of these is your favourite Disney Christmas films? Have I left any out that you love? Let me know!

Never Grow Up

-
From the ‘Isn’t Disney for kids??’ remarks to the raised eyebrow looks you receive from some people when Disneybounding in Disneyland; one of my biggest pet peeves is being told Disney isn’t for you because you’re no longer a child. Most people I’ve come across have thankfully been quite the opposite to the above statement. However, I know this isn’t always the case as the concept of ‘Never grow up’ seems to have gone over a lot of people’s heads. Let’s start with the films. Animation, singing and princesses? I can already hear the scoffing coming from those who would argue that these are marketed towards children. The sheer hard work and imagination that goes into making such films were not just created with the intention of only being viewed by children and those that take them to see these films. The beauty of Disney movies are that they are universal. The detail that goes into the animation, the thought that goes into the messages the films portray and the time that goes i

Why I Love Disneyland Paris

-
As I’ve mentioned numerous times, I like to visit Disneyland Paris as much as I can throughout the year. I am planning on visiting the other Disney Parks (that’s something for a whole different post) but Disneyland Paris will always be home to me. I love DLP for a whole array of reasons and one of them is most definitely how easy it is to get to my favourite place. Living in London means that it just takes me one tube journey to get to St Pancras to catch the Eurostar. We’ve even been lucky enough to get a direct train to Disney on occasion. Coupling this with staying offsite in the close by Ibis Budget (In Val D’Europe) and having Annual Passes, our visits to Disneyland Paris are more affordable – and leaves us with more money to spend in the shops! From the moment I step off the train in Marne La Vallée and walk the short distance towards the magic; I’m instantly transported into the bubble of Disney. This is only heightened when I finally make it into the park for the first

Disney at Home

With Disney being such an important part of my life, and with frequent visits to Disneyland Paris, it’s only natural that Disney is incorporated into various aspects of my home life. In October of last year, I moved into my own flat with my girlfriend and our best friend. Having a whole place to ourselves meant we were free to furnish it how we please, and obviously that had to include some Disney magic sprinkled around the flat. Our living room is home to our beautiful dark wood bookcase, in which the middle shelf is home to our growing collection of shiny o-ring DVDs. Thus far, we have 32 in our collection that sit underneath a bed of Tsum Tsums. On top of the bookcase sits two of my favourite purchases we’ve made whilst in Disneyland Paris: our working Cogsworth and Lumiere figurines. These two items are quite pricey so we saved up for them and purchased both on two separate DLP trips with the aid of our Annual Pass discounts. Alongside them sits our Mrs Potts moneybox and
