Christmas Movie Countdown... #5

I'm free!!! Today was the last day of school. I've actually gotten a lot done, so all I have to do is pop into school for about an hour on Monday to finish up my lesson plans! Wohoo!! Bring on Christmas!!!!!




#5 The Christmas Toy

This is not a well known movie. It was played on regular televion in 1986 for Christmas and then that was it! It wasn't released in VHS form until later... and it is still so popular with the children who watched it (like me) that they've released it onto DVD. I remember watching this when I was a little girl. My parents taped it for me and I watched it every Christmas since... even with the Kraft commercials!! Ha ha! Now I own the VHS and I continue to watch it every Christmas. It's a very sweet movie that is about your toys coming to life when you leave the room. Rugby the tiger is the star and he is discovering that even thouh he is Jamie's favorite toy from last Christmas that he isn't ALWAYS the Christmas Toy. This movie added to my weird quirk of feeling like I was hurting my other toys' or stuffed animals' feelings by "leaving them out." Oye. Me and my personification of inanimate objects... enjoy!
