By Erin Stolle, Publisher/Editor - Macaroni Kid Alpharetta-Roswell-Milton December 2, 2019

I love watching holiday movies, especially with my family! We have our favorites, and it's so much fun discovering new ones, too! Though I may find myself glued to the Hallmark Channel while the kids are busy with other things, when they're home and we're ready to snuggle up on the couch, I love Freeform's Countdown to 25 Days of Christmas!
