The precious, intangible gifts of laughter, friendship, and love take center stage in this charming holiday episode from the popular Disney Channel TV series Out of the Box. Upbeat, friendly cohosts Tony and Vivian open their clubhouse doors to viewers and to a small group of cheerful kids, all eager to share their favorite holiday traditions. Popcorn necklaces, origami cranes, and family photos provide the impetus for breaking out the craft box to make a simple photo album. Here smart direction and scripting shine through as the cast provide both short lessons on sorting pictures and helpful hints for completing the project. An open box of kids' musical instruments means it's song time. Themes of sharing and caring prompt the opening of yet another box--this one full of costumes--for a wonderful spin on the classic O. Henry Christmas story, The Gift of the Magi. Very refreshing to see talented kids and costume-free adults genuinely enjoying their interaction and never upstaging. Following the 25-minute episode, Vivian and Tony show viewers how to make a colorful holiday mobile and how to honor the various winter holidays people celebrate. Sure to inspire 4- to 7-year-olds who love preparing for the season as well as regular fans of the TV show. --Liane Thomas

5.0 out of 5 stars Great holiday video, November 7, 2000

By	Jan M. Wojcicki (LaPorte, IN United States) - See all my reviews

This video shows all different ways to celebrate--Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukah. It also demonstrates ways people can show they care during this festive season. It deals with the holidays in a positive and constructive manner to demonstrate what the true meaning of this time of year should be. My daughter loves it!
