Believe it or not, but the holidays are right around the corner, so it’s time to start getting your Joomla site ready with some great extensions and templates! I found some free extensions that will make it look like snow is falling on your site, as well as a flash countdown timer to help you remind your visitors of the number of days left until a particular holiday–a great extension for online merchants who want to remind their customers they only have a few shopping days left!
If you want to radically change the look of your website for the holidays, I’ve also found some premium Joomla templates designed to give your site a cheery look!
Yooholidays
This free Joomla extension includes three different effects–flying bats for Halloween, fireworks for New Years, and falling snow that collects at the bottom of the screen for winter. Yooholidays is very easy to install and you can set this extension to start and end on specific dates.
Xmas Snowballs
This Joomla extension is similar to the falling effect found in YooHolidays, except instead of just falling snow, this extension has falling snowflakes. Xmas Snowballs allows you to control how many snowflakes you want on the screen at one time and how quickly they disappear. You can’t automate when you want it to start and stop, so be sure to enable and disable this extension at the appropriate times.
Flash Countdown Timer
This is a simple Joomla extension for counting down the time until a specific date (i.e., Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanzaa, etc.) on your website. Flash Countdown Timer is great extension for online retailers who want to remind their customers they only have a certain number of shopping days left until a particular holiday.

Wow thanks for these templates; I have been wanting to do a Christmas site but could not find a template. I will definitely be getting one of these holiday ones that you suggest.
Wow, really awesome. Especially the Christmas website is eye catching,
Now I’m in the mood for some Christmas carols.
Just kidding, brilliant templates.
Thanks, i really needed to source this info for a project i’m working on. You are a LEGEND! Thanks! :0) I will post a link on here again when i’m done so you can see it! I have a feeling you will like it from what i have read!
Wish I found this site last December we had a client come with a rush redesign, wanted a Christmas feel for the holidays, would have saved lots of time to use one of these.
These holiday templates look very nice. Maybe this year you will show us some more before Christmas.
Free extensions that will make it look like snow is falling on our site that’s seem really good.
