There is something about music that adds so much spirit and life to Christmas decor. That’s why I love so many of the vast variety of enchanting music boxes that are out there right now. For kids, they are truly magical. Last year, I bought a retro looking little TV set from Gump’s that plays Christmas carols with an animated scene of carolers inside (see below). My girls and their friends are fascinated by it. I think I am going to add a new music box each year. They’re highly collectible and so decorative!
Santa’s Visit Animated Music Box, $95: Open this elegant wooden box to reveal a snowy village experiencing a vist from Santa. Plays 15 carols!
Maestro Mouse, $129.50: This adorable musical mouse is all dressed up for Christmas, and he’ll play any of 24 Christmas songs at your request!
North Pole Band, $169.50: Three bearded sprites play 25 Christmas carols and 25 classics. These Mark Roberts creations feature expressive faces and lots of beautiful detail.
Going Home for the Holidays, $149: A sweet Victorian scene shows Santa conducting a train through a snow-filled night, while 25 different songs play.
Animated Nutcracker Music Box, $195: I am taking my girls to a children’s performance of the Nutcracker this Sunday. It’s become a holiday tradition for us, and the girls think it’s magical. This stunning animated music box will bring the magic home.
Holiday TV Music Box, $98: This charming retro television has authentic details, like rabbit ears and a volume knob, and inside, vintage carolers encircle a Christmas tree while holiday music plays!

Hi Sue! I’m sorry but this is an old post. I’m honestly not sure if that is still available. You might want to contact the manufacturer. I apologize about that!

Hi. Nada, Where can I buy a music box like ‘Santa’s Visit Animated Music Box’?

Thank you

Hi! This is an older post, so not all of these are still available, but there are links to the stores in the descriptions. Which one are you interested in?

Hi Nada, can I ask where to order a Music box like that?
Thank you
Nada Manley says
Hi Sheila! It’s about 8 inches wide times 6 inches high. Yes it lights up, plays a couple of different Christmas tunes, and the pieces inside rotate and move around in a winter scene with skaters, etc. It’s adorable and a family favorite!

Hi. What are the dimensions of your retro christmas TV box? Does it light up?
