An old time tradition or a new one.

So much preparation goes into our holiday celebrations, but sometimes it’s nice to just kick back. One tradition that I’ve always enjoyed is watching the classic holiday movies and TV specials. It’s an easy going tradition that can be meaningful, but yet requires very little preparation. You just whip out some snacks and cozy up. You’re spending hard earned quiet time with your family or friends and sometimes it even ignites a meaningful discussion.

So bring on the popcorn and hot cocoa, cozy up on the couch and get ready for some meaningful holiday entertainment. USA Today has a pretty cool interactive calendar listing holiday specials on TV or jump over to TV.com for theirs and cast your vote. Below are a few more to get you started.

•  Oprahs “Best Holiday Movies”
