DISNEY JR. CHRISTMAS EPISODES

Every TV show on Disney Jr. has produced a Christmas episode at some point. Disney+ has gathered a collection of them in the Happy Holidays section. These are aimed at younger kids, so they won’t be as enjoyable for older audiences, but are still important for the little kids in your house. They features episodes from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Mickey and the Roadster Racers, Doc McStuffins and more

DISNEY CHANNEL CHRISTMAS EPISODES

There is also a collection of Christmas episodes from the TV shows on the Disney Channel. These will appeal to the older kids that the Disney Jr. episodes don’t.  It features specials from “Phineas and Ferb,” “Jessie” and “Austin and Ally.”

MICKEY’S ONCE UPON A CHRISTMAS

A Christmas themed, three-part anthology-style video. The first part, “Donald Duck: Stuck on Christmas”, is essentially a retelling of “Groundhog Day,” with Huey, Dewey, and Louie reliving Christmas ad infinitum. Next is “A Very Goofy Christmas”, in which Goofy tries to overcome his son’s scepticism about Santa Claus. Finally, “Mickey & Minnie’s Gift Of The Magi” recreate the classic tale of ironic Christmas selflessness.

MICKEY’S A CHRISTMAS CAROL

It’s the same old classic Charles Dickens story with an all-star Disney cast. Uncle Scrooge McDuck is appropriately enough Scrooge and is visited by his dead partner and 3 spirits one night to remember the joys of Christmas.

About Jennifer Retzlaff

My name is Jennifer Retzlaff and I became a lifelong Disney fan during my first trip to Walt Disney World in 6th grade. From that moment, Disney became a big part of my life. I live in Iowa with my husband and two kids who are growing up too quickly for my liking. I started introducing my love for Disney early to my family with a Disney honeymoon and then trips when our youngest of 18 months. Since then, our family has been to Walt Disney World over five times and we continue to plan and dream for the next trip. I love the magic that Disney brings to people through the theme parks, cruises, adventures and movies they create. As a teacher, I try to bring that magic into my classroom to help kids believe that “If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It.” I recently reached a dream of mine as I joined Magic Vacation Planner as a personal travel advisor. With this team, I can now help others plan magical vacations. As a passionate writer, I also have my own blog at magicalvacationsbyjen which is also where you can follow me on instagram for trip reviews along with tips and tricks for your next magical vacation.
