It's Christmastime in the garden and Hermie and his friends are hustling and bustling to prepare for the big day.

"Probably the sweetest of all the Hermie videos, this one truly captures the meaning of Christmas. Many other Christmas videos shy away from the Christ in CHRISTmas, but this one is straight forward. It even parodies many of the other Christmas videos, with subtle references to Rudolph, Charlie Brown, Frosty, and others. Watch carefully! And Rick and Bubba - what fantastic additions to the Hermie world."
Kids love it (we do too)

"We've yet to be disappointed by Hermie and Wormie. Our girls, and all of their friends are quite entertained by the group of insects. The animation is incredible. We'll be adding more of Hermie and Wormie to our collection!"

"The Hermie and Friends videos are all wonderfully animated, humorous, and enlightening. Each video contains timeless Biblical truths that will resonate with even the youngest viewers.
In Fruitcake Christmas, the bugs learn the true message of Christmas with Christ squarely at the center. Parents and children alike will benefit from seeing beyond the gifts and festivities that surround our modern-day Christmas frenzy and understand what true giving is all about. Parents will enjoy the movie along with the kids as plenty of references to popular Christmas classics are eluded to such as Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol and others like the Grinch Who Stole Christmas, Rudolph and more.
The sing-a-longs are delightful and with the '12 Bugs of Christmas,' you might catch yourself singing 5 Ants that sing, rather than '5 Golden Rings' to a popular Christmas carol!
