Our Story

Our Story

The Jolly Christmas Village came to life to solve a real problem. Children are so drawn to the very breakable Christmas villages that are set up for the holiday season, but they are constantly told not to touch them or move them.

We answered the call to create something magical after our son broke a piece of his Grandma’s Christmas village. After searching everywhere to find a version for children and realizing it did not exist, we joyfully created it ourselves.

With a lifelong love for all things holiday and seasonal, this feels more meant to be than we can possibly explain!

Generosity and a giving spirit are at the heart of The Jolly Christmas Village. The call to create this toy set aligns beautifully with the call to live a life of service and support people.

As parents, we know wholeheartedly that IT TAKES A VILLAGE! Our commitment to giving back includes supporting children and families directly and through well-vetted charities.

And now for a little rhyme…

A few years ago, in November, the scene was something to remember.

Grandma brought her Christmas village out. It was all fun and games until tears broke out.

A child simply wanted to play, but things broke, and the village had to be put away.

“There must be a solution,” we thought. We searched the web and stores for something to be bought.

Somehow, what we needed didn’t exist, so to create it ourselves, we couldn’t resist.

Meet The Jolly Christmas Village, a beloved Christmas tradition reinvented for children.

So let your children play, play, play until January, then put it away.

Then add a new house each year when you bring it back out. This special tradition will flourish and bring so much joy to your family, no doubt.

With love,
The Schilles
