Marie Russell, a curious and imaginative 9-year-old girl, and her adventurous friend Andrew Thatcher embark on a school trip through Chicago, Illinois, on a chilly Friday afternoon in December. As they explore the city, Marie's teacher surprises them with tickets to the Nutcracker ballet performance.
Meanwhile, deep in a secret chamber, the mischievous King of Rats hatches a plan to disrupt the holiday celebrations by capturing the beloved characters from the Walter Lantz Cartunes. Determined to save Christmas, Woody Woodpecker, a clever and resourceful cartoon character, invents the "Snowflight Express," a blizzard machine with the power to transport Marie and Andrew into the animated world.
After the enchanting Nutcracker ballet ends, Marie and Andrew find themselves caught in a magical blizzard and unexpectedly transported into the animated snow. They soon discover themselves in the company of the Walter Lantz cartunes, who have been captured by the King of Rats.
With the help of their newfound animated friends, including Woody Woodpecker and other beloved Lantz characters, Marie and Andrew journey to Toyland, a whimsical world where toys come to life.
