13 Christmas 2022 Movies for Kids on Netflix

Here a selection of 13 movies on Netflix for this Christmas. The best ones of everything I've watched were: 

1 - Christmas Chronicles 2018 and 2020
2 - Jingle Jangle, 2020
3 - Claus family, 2020 and 2021
4 - A Boy called Christmas, 2021

1 - Christmas Chronicles, 2018


This is the best movie of Christmas i saw until now. Is super funny and emotional. It truly rescues the Christmas season feeling i recommend for the entire family. 



A girl sees Santa in her house in an old video and invites her brother to wait Santa and film him. They sleep but Santa arrives, and they wake up and see him. This is very emotional because they go outside and see his car and all the reindeers floating. She decides to go inside his car. Her brother goes too, and when Santa came back, they are already hidden and start to travel together without his acknowledging.

When Santa sees them, they have an accident, his car broke, and he loses his bag of presents. He doesn't want any help and send them away, but they want to help. The Adventure begins. They ask help in a restaurant, but people didn't believe him, and they call police to tell that a crazy man is harassing the clients. He tells everybody's name and what they asked for Christmas as kids but still they do not believe. Santa then takes a Sport car, and the police starts to persecute them. They are about to find the reindeers and it's very funny, the Police continue to persecute Santa and when he tries to explain he gets arrested because the police officers of course didn't believe. In the jail he knows everybody by name and take of his coat gifts and instruments, some musicians were in jail, and he starts a band with guitar and drum πŸ₯ 😁. Only this way the Police Officers believe that he is Santa Claus.

The Elf's came to help him to go out of jail and now the other Sceptical police officer believes him. Everybody in the prison gets transformed by his love πŸ’•. 

He lost so much time in this adventure and calculates that he cannot deliver all the gifts in time, so the kids tell him that they will help. A super teamwork with the Elf's and they succeeded. His car travels by portals using the energy green matter found in Norway, it's so amazing 🀩. He travels between countries in few minutes. 

The unimaginable happens in this movie. Tedd was in Santa's list as one of the non-believers but now he is very emotional, before he was bored about life and became bad and rebel, now is another person with good heart. 

The Adventure doesn't stop, they created the second part.

He was a bishop who discovered the joy of giving. His legend spread far and wide eventually reaching the Forest Elves. There were ancient species of Elves very magical and wild creatures. For centuries they were hunted because of their magical powers they were captured by humans to the brink of extinction, but there was a prophecy, a man who would lead the Elves to safety. Hakan, the Elves leader knew that Saint Nicholas was the only one who could channel the Star of Bethlehem's power. They named Saint Nicholas, Santa Claus after that day. 

They explain the history of Belsnickel, that he was a brilliant Elf, very popular in the village. She explains when he became a teenage everything changed. Santa had more job to do and Belsnickel became resentful and more rebellious because Santa had no time for him, until one day he broke the Elves code. "Ego, lying, viciousness, envy and selfishness". If the Elves break one of these transgressions they become cursed. Belsnickel broke all five she says. 

He was naughty until the point to have the Coca Cola with his face instead of Santa's face.

That was too much and he become a human, he ran to never come back. They go to sleep.

Belsnickel sent a robot to their room to spy them. Them he sent the Elf to put some blue glitter smoke inside the cannons (the real ones are black), to go inside the Elves  Sends Jola to hurt the reindeers, and he will gonna take the Star.

Santa reaches the village and takes all the arrows they shoot him. He froze one elf so they recognized him.  He meets Hakan, he is like master Yoda. They greet themselves.

Hakan agrees to build a new star to help and reinforces that the ritual is very dangerous. :)

 After reading one spell the star stone receives all the necessary source energy it needs. The sky opens after they read a ancient language giving the instructions to the star. 


The ancients wrote a lot of books with all their secrets that are kept safe in North Pole. Santa is also protecting all the legacy that were inherited to the Elf's. 

Meanwhile Jack succeeded in his mission, to find the root, and faces the giant 🐯. Then he returns safe to the village and gives it to Mrs. Claus.

Santa and Kate failed and lose the star to Belsnickel, who has a car similar to Santa Claus, who enjoys to ask him what are his animals, are a hybrid of jackals and coyotes, his creation he says, Santa compliments him, but says that he is not smarter than him, then he hits his car and again the Star falls and Belsnickel takes it.

Edward Holcroft as Arthur Kinnaird
Kevin Guthrie as Fergus Suter
Charlotte Hope as Margaret Alma Kinnaird

James Harkness as Jimmy Love



They classified the movie as violent, inappropriate language. 

A series of 6 episodes, is about their economics problems in their County. They are trying to generate new forms of income, that city is know for the production of Cotton, but is facing a economic crisis, in the same time they are training new players to Darwen's team to the match against The Old Etonians. 


Darwen was losing and they had the idea of changing their strategies, after they started to score. 

Suddenly started to rain. This is not a good sign. Darwen defeated the Old Etonians and the Etonians got stressed. Darwen asked for extra time, they didn't give, so they agree to play again on Saturday. The game finished in 5×5.

They were right about the extra time to finish the game. The Old Etonians didn't respected the rules.

It finished this way. This game gave to people in the city something to celebrate. 

Meanwhile one of the players don't have what to eat. There is no enough food. 


The aristocrats of the city, the entrepreneurs of their mills are cutting the wages. What makes the population immediately react.

The employer sent the workers home for one week without payment. They didn't accept because they don't have what to eat. The entrepreneur call the Darwen team and tell them he needs the money of the championship to reopen the mill. 


They charge for money of subscriptions to participate in the final match. The place is full of fans. 

Arthur gave the idea of null the strategies of the opponent, but he commits a lot of fouls. The problem is they don't have a judge in the match so Arthur does not use ethics and respect. He is only concerned to not be humiliated in the game. 

Again rain. Arthur took time to win. He cheated the entire game. His wife saw everything and disapproved. 
Later in the evening Arthur's team celebrated their dishonesty. Bravo Arthur!

After it his wife bloods. She suffered an abortion. Haemorrhage.  πŸ€”

Darwen does not give up. They are trying hard practicing to the next championship. 

A player of the Darwen's team will create their uniforms and they need a loan from the Bank, but Arthur is the one who gives loan. He will think about it. 

"Don't be unkind when you turn him down". His father says. 

Meanwhile the cotton mills decide to cut the employees wages in 10%. The employees stopped the machines and start to protest. The police arrives and they go to a judgment. 

The man shows up and wants Fergus to deal with the Blackburn to win more money, to be the first player. He guarantees it, but Fergus refuses. 

He goes to see his mom and her situation is not good with his father. They are also living in poverty and she is suffering aggression.

Again Fergus finds the coach of the Blackburn team and he accepts to play there. 

Arthur's wife is unsatisfied since the abortion. Wondering things. She should get busy it will solve her concerns.

Pointless same again. He said. While training with his football team. He is right. It's difficult when a County is facing poverty with no investments. Really no sense how things are going there. The same game.

The basic of what I understood is they need help. There is no economy. People are unsatisfied and they created their football team to develop their county and to be part of the next FA Cup, the European Cups. 

Fergus changed of team and his team mates are resented. His best friend will gonna marry. 

His new coach is approaching on Marta. 

He pays his old coach for the Fergus pass (is an international law pay for passes) and proposes a match between Blackburn and Darwen.
"Rivalry is good for business", he says.

Fergus best friend is offended that now he will be in the other team and suggests him to leave his house. 

The Fergus affair Marta was dismissed of her job because of a misunderstood with the harassment of Sr. John at work. Her boss fired her, but should say apologise. And offended her also. Women are constantly offended there just because of the men. He is the father of her child, but he is married.

    "The Dog ran home". She said. A mother. One friend told me. They do this to each other all the time. Aye.

They always find a reason to put you out when they don't wanna pay you.

Fergus played to Blackburn but the problem is they already have a star called Hunter, and he is not the main one like he was in Darwen. That's why he was invited. To weak Darwen. Was a trap. 

Jimmy cannot forgive Fergus, the team is saying that Fergus is not welcome anymore in Darwen and he should leave. Jimmy appears and tell them he will join Fergus at Blackburn. Fergus is all happiness.

John offers Marta a new position or job when he knew she was fired, but she refuses his help and he offers her money. 

Arthur's wife is in a secret mission to recover a baby for a mother she knew in the Asylum house. There are many babies without mother because the level of unemployment is very high, so they give them to donation. There are a lot of babies without mother. The social problems are evident there. 

Johns wife cannot have babies she said. But John has now to confess to his wife a secret. 

Blackburn will play against Darwen. It's a war inside the camp. 

Meanwhile the fans are crying out them traitors, it's very serious. 

The game starts and Fergus and Jimmy manage to score a goal, the fans get crazy. In the next pass, one player of Darwen beats Jimmy's behind and beat intensely his leg. Jimmy is now with a severe injury with a broken leg and cutted. Horrible. terrible and bleeding very much. 

The doctor managed to care of Jimmy, so he is alive, but he said he will never be able to play football again. 
The newspaper reacts calling them SAVAGES. 

They have a discussion to take Blackburn out of the FA finals.

In the day of the match the Old Etonians tried, Arthur with his Moroccan strategy, but didn't work, they lost and The Blackburn took the Cup. Arthur's father and mother went to see him and they were proud of their son. 

Fergus and his team were happy celebrating the victory like children. The city received them like heroes.

End of the story Ebenezer. 

Brasil 2002, os Bastidores do Penta, 2022

 It's an amazing documentary of Netflix highlighting the best moments of the "Seleção Brasileira" in the World cup in 2002. 

It's impossible do not get emotional, because it rescues who we were as team in the past. 

Brazilian team putted all of them, their soul, not only the heart to win this championship. They wanted to pay all the Brazilians for the loss in the 1998 World cup, when they lost to France in the Finals. 

You will rescue the true feeling of what is to be in a World cup, their happiness in compete, the talents that were so many and what is to play like a team. What makes Brazi a successful team?

I truly recommend, you will understand what is to be a Brazilian player. The country stops, people decorate the entire country to give support to the team. Brazilians love Football, Brazil itself is the World cup main attraction. 

You will see Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos and Ronaldinho talking, what happened to Ronaldo, when he had the seizure, the expectation of the citizens and media on him, they are all the time positive, and they were really responsible. Beckham is also remembering what is to compete against Brazil. Felipe Massa also showed up, it's a beautiful gift to rescue this feeling. 

There are many funny moments and i was looking in everybody's eyes, that were times of Innocence. People really were passionate, that's why is a so good time.
