Netflix offers a variety of clean Christmas movies that are great for all ages. Many of these films highlight the true spirit of the season—joy, kindness, and togetherness—without inappropriate content.

Whether you’re in the mood for laughs, a little romance, or holiday cheer, you’ll find the perfect film for any occasion.

So, don’t stress about what to watch next; I’ve done the work for you by handpicking a selection that will keep everyone entertained from start to finish.

What makes a clean movie?

As a Christ-follower it’s very important for me to fill my mind with positive things, and movies are no different.

That being said, these are all movies that I could comfortably watch with my mom sitting in the room.

They have no sex and minimal profane language. (Minimal language means less than 10 words in the entire movie and a handful of language means less than 5 words in the entire movie.)

Check the noteworthy section of each movie for details about profane language or anything else you should be aware of.

I wish perfect movies existed but sadly they don’t! Without further ado, here are the movies…
