Ah, summertime. Those carefree days of soaking up the sun, going for a swim — and watching "Babes in Toyland." Christmas comes early this year, as CTN airs a block of holiday-themed programming this Saturday.

The festive schedule includes “Christmas Time;" “Erickson School Presents Babes in Toyland;” “We Need A Little Christmas;” “Tree Town Community Chorus Sings Holiday Tunes;" and “It’s a Holiday Tradition," airing from 5:00 to 7:30pm on Comcast Cable channel 17.

Who says Christmas comes only once a year?
