See “Buttons: A Christmas Tale” with Dick Van Dyke in Theaters on 12/17 ~ and Enter to Win the Music CD!
By Parentingauthor @ParentingAuthorThis Christmas, I’d like to share a terrific gift for families -- the opportunity to watch a very special holiday movie!
Buttons: A Christmas Tale is the magical, musical story that shows believing can be the greatest gift of all. Follow the heartwarming journey of two orphan girls whose only wish is to find a home for Christmas. With a little help from their guardian angels (screen legends Dick Van Dyke and Angela Lansbury), they discover that miracles really can happen when you find the power to believe.
From director Tim Janis, this inspiring holiday film for the whole family features an all-star cast, including Jane Seymour, Roma Downey and Abigail Spencer, and is narrated by Kate Winslet and Robert Redford, with a special song by Sir Paul McCartney.

Watch the trailer:
I recently had the opportunity to view this very special film. Dick Van Dyke and Angela Lansbury as angels were magical, and I loved the musical numbers with Dick Van Dyke. I was tickled to see Dick Van Dyke dancing with another penguin, reminiscent of his performance in Mary Poppins! This movie reminds us that life isn’t always easy. Two little girls in this film both had very difficult lives, but their guardian angels reminded them that there is always hope. This lesson is one that we can all use during this difficult year.
How can you watch Buttons?
Buttons will be in theaters for one night only, on December 17th! Get tickets here.
It will be also available for churches to host through December 31st on Faith Content Network, so be sure to share this news with your church leaders. Get more info here.
I hope you’ll join me this year in watching this heart-warming holiday movie!
