    What is the name of this old movie?
    All right, I need help. There was a VHS I used to watch with my family every year at Christmas and I'm trying to track it down now for nostalgia's sake.

    It's an old, animated sing along tape that had four short-story type movies about Christmas. The first was the iconic Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer; the second was a story about two very poor children who went to be on Christmas' Eve and had dreams of a land filled with candy and food only to wake up and find their parents had managed to prepare them with a feast on Christmas Morning; the third was a story about orphans whose caretaker could not afford toys and Christmas decorations for them, so this Saint Nick-like figure stopped his sleigh and built them toys and decorations out of every-day items; and lastly there was a sing along to the song "Three Little Fishies".

    There may have been more, and they may not be in that order. But it's a big part of my childhood and I really want to be able to have it again.

    The first might be this one: YouTube - Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1944)
    The second one is Somewhere in Dreamland: YouTube - Somewhere In Dreamland
    The third sounds like Christmas Comes But Once a Year: YouTube - Cartoon-Christmas Comes But Once a Year (1936)
    All three are Max Fleischer shorts. Not sure about the fourth.
