It's magic! Every year, the Christmas Village comes to life...but only if all the people and pieces of the village are set up by sunset on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. The Real House children, Annie, Maggie, and Joanie don't have time to finish setting up the village before they leave for Gramma and Grampa's house the day after Thanksgiving.

With just a little magic left, and a lot of cooperation, the people of the Christmas Village come alive and get to work, racing against time and overcoming obstacles to finish setting up the village.

Grannie Noelle, her faithful dog, Holly-Honey, the magic owls, Ora and Ona, and all the wonderful children and residents of the village share ideas and work together hoping to refuel the Glow-Mometer before sunset on Sunday.

Will they be able to accomplish this magical task in time, or will they just be ordinary Christmas Village figures this season who cannot move or talk?
