In this year’s Disney Christmas ad, it’s the final chapter of #FromOurFamilyToYours following on from part 1 ‘From Our Family to Yours’ and part 2 ‘The Stepdad’.

In the new animated short ad, Nicole and her family are preparing to welcome a special new addition… but not everyone is ready for things to change.

‘The Gift’ is a short animated film lasting three minutes, which depicts how sibling relationships can support family members during times when the family is changing. It’s all about building connections and making memories.

Disney has used the same family in its festive ads since 2020 when ‘Lola’ showed the story of Nicole and her grandmother Lola and how their bond had grown through her childhood.

Last year ‘The Stepdad’ showed an older Nicole and her family welcoming new stepdad Mike into their lives.

This year, the film follows Nicole’s youngest daughter Ella, as the family prepares to welcome a new baby. Ella is unsure about the upcoming changes and has a glow-in-the-dark Mickey Mouse toy to help comfort her given to her by her brother Max.

‘A Little More’ is available to download.

Since the launch of ‘From Our Family To Yours’ in 2020, Disney will have committed support worth more than $4m to its long-standing charity partner, Make-A-Wish® International and its network of Affiliates around the world, as part of Disney’s ongoing commitment to inspire a better world through the power of storytelling.
