From animated classics to feel-good, live-action comedies, here are our top picks.

With decades upon decades of creating magical, kid-friendly content, Disney and Christmas go together like those cookies and milk you left out for Santa. The House of Mouse has dozens of holiday movies, specials, and shorts under its belt -- all of them ripe for the streaming as we enter the final stretch of 2023. When you think of holiday favorites, odds are some Disney Christmas movies always make the cut.

If you've got a Disney+ subscription, accessing Disney's lengthy holiday movie catalog couldn't be more convenient. And there are so many merry options at your disposal. From animated classics to live-action favorites, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Most importantly, there are so many family Christmas movies that are perfect for all ages.

But getting to the good stuff isn't as easy as a point and a click.

That's why we're here to help you narrow down the best classic Christmas movies the streamer has to offer.

We've got quirky and spooky Christmas claymation from the mind of Tim Burton, feel-good live-action comedies, and old black-and-white classics for kids from 1 to 92. We've got fun. We've got romance. We've got so much dang whimsy, not even Saint Nick could stuff it all down the chimney.
