Christmas Cursors

Christmas cursors as fan-made festive editions: Minecraft Christmas, Fortnite Winterfest, Stardew Winter Star, Toca Boca Christmas, Peppa Pig Christmas and Bluey Christmas.

About the Christmas cursor collection

The Christmas collection is a short list of seasonal editions, each a festive version of a character from a game or children's show. Every pack is fan-made and none is official or licensed. For players there are Minecraft Christmas, a Creeper in a Santa hat, Fortnite Winterfest, Peely in a scarf, and Stardew Winter Star, a Junimo in a knitted scarf named after the winter festival in Stardew Valley. Toca Boca Christmas, a Toca kid in a reindeer hat, sits between games and younger users. Peppa Pig Christmas and Bluey Christmas are for small children and their parents. It is a modest set, not a full winter catalogue, and it suits families decorating a shared computer.

One for the children, one for the players

The collection divides by age more than by style. Bluey Christmas and Peppa Pig Christmas are for pre-school and early primary children, and they make a gentle surprise on a family laptop in December. Toca Boca Christmas suits slightly older children who play those apps. Minecraft Christmas, Fortnite Winterfest and Stardew Winter Star are for players of any age. In a household with one shared computer and several browser profiles, each profile can have its own pack.

Presents, crackers and snowmen: the hover images

Each pack keeps its festive joke for the second image. Minecraft Christmas swaps the Creeper for a block of TNT wrapped like a present. Fortnite Winterfest and Stardew Winter Star both turn into a wrapped gift. Toca Boca Christmas becomes a gingerbread cookie, Peppa Pig Christmas a little snowman and Bluey Christmas a Christmas cracker. You see that image whenever you hover a link, so it is worth picking the pair whose second half you like as much as the first.

Putting your Christmas cursor up and taking it down

A cursor is about the least effort a decoration can be. Add a pack at the start of December, or whenever your household begins, and it shows on the websites you visit. When the season ends, choose another pack or switch the extension off and the normal pointer returns. These are seasonal editions in theme only, so they stay usable all year for anyone who wants a festive pointer in July. The everyday versions of the same characters are in the gaming and cartoon collections.

Which Christmas pack to pick

Santa hats and scarves bring red and white, which show on most backgrounds. Minecraft Christmas, with its blocky Creeper, stays readable when small. Peppa Pig Christmas and Bluey Christmas are simple, bold children's designs, clear at a medium size. Fortnite Winterfest shows Peely the banana, a strong yellow shape. Toca Boca Christmas and Stardew Winter Star carry finer detail, a reindeer hat and a knitted scarf, and are worth a larger setting.

All 6 Christmas packs

Each pack is a matched pair: one image for your normal pointer and one that takes over when you hover a link or button.

Where Christmas cursors work

Christmas cursors show on the web pages you open in Chrome and other Chromium browsers during December: online shops, wish lists, card makers, YouTube and web mail. They work on a family Chromebook where extensions are allowed. They do not appear inside Minecraft, Fortnite or any other game client, in desktop apps, on chrome:// pages or in the Chrome Web Store.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a Santa hat, snowflake or reindeer cursor?

The packs are festive editions of characters, not standalone symbols. Santa hats appear on the Creeper in Minecraft Christmas and on Peppa in Peppa Pig Christmas, whose hover image is a little snowman. For a plain snowflake, candy cane or reindeer, upload an image to the site's builder and make a pair.

Is there a Bluey or Peppa Pig Christmas cursor for children?

Yes. Bluey Christmas and Peppa Pig Christmas are both in this collection as fan-made seasonal editions. They are not official or licensed products. The extension has no ads inside it and needs no account, which keeps things simple when setting it up on a child's browser profile.

Can I add snow or sparkle effects to a Christmas cursor?

The extension includes optional cursor trails and click effects that work with any pack, so you can combine one with a festive cursor from the popup. They are separate from the pack, which is a pair of still images, and can be turned off again whenever you prefer a plain pointer.

Is there a Minecraft or Fortnite Christmas cursor?

Yes, both fan-made. Minecraft Christmas is a Creeper in a Santa hat, with TNT wrapped like a present on hover. Fortnite Winterfest is Peely in a Winterfest scarf, with a wrapped present on hover. They show on websites in your browser and never inside the games themselves.
