The Ultimate Christmas Present is a Disney Channel Original Movie starring Hallee Hirsh and Brenda Song.
Plot[]
Two teen girls, Allison Rachel "Allie" Thompson(13) (Hallee Hirsh) and Samantha Elizabeth "Sam" Kwan(13) (Brenda Song) find a weather machine and make it snow in Los Angeles. At first the snow was fun for everybody who it affected, but eventually the snowstorm gets so large that it spreads to San Francisco and Allie's dad gets snowed in and may not make it home in time for Christmas.
Samantha shares sad stories with Allie about how her dad would spend Christmas, while Allie is sad about her dad missing Christmas. At the same time, the weather machine belongs to Santa Claus and he goes looking for it, along with the help of two elves who look nothing like the traditional design (in other words, as one of them mentions, they are "not 3 feet tall and have squeaky voices"). Unfortunately, a boring weather man who wants more publicity on television attempts to steal the weather machine from Santa and the girls in order to be the best weather man in history. In the end, Allie and Samantha help Santa fix the machine and learn that family and hope are the most important part about the Christmas season.
