Why watch Christmas YouTube videos in Spanish?
In our bilingual household, we try to keep screen time to a minimum, but when we do use screen time we put it in our minority language, Spanish.
With all of the streaming devices nowadays, it makes keeping screen time in Spanish super easy.
Disney, Netflix, Hulu, and almost every device have an option to change the audio to Spanish, or any other language, as well as add subtitles.
And if you don’t have those applications, then you can also resort to YouTube which is free and has a plethora of Spanish videos for children. We watch a lot of our seasonal shows and videos on YouTube.
Today, I am going to share some of our favorite Spanish Christmas videos on YouTube with you in the hopes of getting you in the Christmas spirit and maybe you can learn some more Spanish as a family as well!

Here is another version of “Jingle Bells” in Spanish by Argentine Channel Plim Plim.
I love this original take of the “Jingle Bells” by my absolute favorite YouTube Spanish Channel, El Reino Infantil.
This song is called “Todos juntos estaremos” (we will all be together) with lyrics about a farm family spending Christmas together! How sweet and entertaining for the littles.
