The penguins of the Central Park Zoo have an adventure in the city on Christmas Eve.

When Santa and his reindeer crash onto the island of Madagascar it's up to Alex, Marty, Gloria, Melman and those wacky penguins to deliver the presents and save Christmas.

Bent on an agenda to take over the world, the penguins' mad dolphin nemesis, Dr. Blowhole, kidnaps King Julien in an effort to lure the flightless force into a trap so that he can annihilate them once and for all. It’s up to the penguins to spring the trap before Blowhole’s plan to flood the Earth comes to fruition.

When the zoo is closed for Christmas, the animals prepare for "Kidsmas" -- their annual celebration complete with decorations, food, gifts and a visit from Santa.
