So we have some holiday sad news and some holiday glad news in our house. The sad news is that we decided to skip the Christmas tree this year. We have two terribly crazy rambunctious kittens and the combination of nutso cats and a big ‘ol tree with fragile ornaments can only spell disaster.
The glad news is that we just got something that will bring the holiday cheer to our living room and help make up for the lack of tree: Hallmark’s Interactive Musical Christmas Concert Snowmen and The Conductor.
Let me just saw that this is the absolute cutest holiday decor I have seen in ages. It is so fun! It is a set of 21 stackable snowmen that all join together to play little concerts complete with awesome light effects. The set even includes The Conductor who “leads” the show.
I’ll show you the video I took, which gives you an idea of how cool it is, but keep in mind that smartphone video in a dimly lit room is NOT very good quality. It really doesn’t do the show justice! You can also see the “official” video below mine.
I was so excited about the snowmen that I had to face time with my hubby (who is currently in South America for work) to show him how cute they were. Even my big manly husband said it was his favorite Christmas decoration that I have EVER gotten. That is high praise!
The set runs on AAA batteries, so you can set it anywhere you like and don’t have to worry about a cord. There are several choices for playing the snowmen – my favorite is the intermittent mode where every 3 minutes or so they will turn on and give you a sound and light show. There are 21 different songs in all!
To make the set play in Continuous mode, press and hold the button on the conductor or any snowman section for 4 seconds. The snowmen will then perform every 2-3 minutes. Press and hold again to turn off continuous play.
Hallmark’s Interactive Musical Christmas Concert Snowmen and The Conductor is available exclusively at Hallmark Gold Crown stores nationwide and at Hallmark.com.

I bought this set 2 Christmases ago, and it is a great addition to our holiday decorations. One question…I bought it on eBay and it did not come with instructions. How do you get the set to play intermittently on its own?
Thank you for your help. Merry Christmas, and blessings.

Vikki Billings says
I love snowmen, I collect them. This would make a great addition to my collection and I would use them to put smiles on my grandchildrens faces when they come over for Christmas.
Laurie Emerson says
I would put this on my mantle next to the Christmas cards I receive. It would brighten up the mantle and give it such a beautiful Christmas look to it.

wow the hallmarks-interactive-musical-christmas-concert-snowmen would be awesome to set in my living room so all can see it 🙂
Richard Hicks says
I would use this in the den where we have the xmas tree
Samantha says
We don’t have many holiday decorations so this would put us more in the holiday spirit in the center on the room! The music it plays will really get us to be festive this year!
Trisha McKee says
Anything related to the holiday makes me smile but this is just an adorable, unique item. It plays so many different songs too, and that always gets me in the holiday mood.
Pamela Eatherton says
To see the smiles on the faces of my grandchildren when they see these snowmen would brighten even Scrooges holidays
