More about The Christmas Mix-Up:

As Christmas approaches, the town of Hollyville gets ready for their holiday celebrations with eager anticipation. When things begin to go wrong, the elves begin to investigate the mysterious mix-ups happening all over town. After discovering that Santa is missing, the search for his whereabouts begin while the town works to solve the holiday mishaps. When Santa is found, off course and relaxing in Hawaii, the elves and towns people work together to correct the mistakes made by one particularly sneaky little elf. When Santa finally returns, he reminds everyone that the true meaning of the holiday is found within the town’s unity and teamwork. By coming together, the town restores Christmas while sharing a renewed sense of joy and gratitude for each other during the holiday season.
