Sweeten was just Six It was years old at that time! And the episode’s storyline presents a huge problem for little Stephanie!
Remember that one? Basically, the Tanner family gets stuck in an airport during a snowstorm, completely throwing their Christmas plans into disarray. But Stephanie has a bigger concern than delayed flights or missing out on holiday festivities: What’s it like? Santa Claus IF THEY ARE STUCK AT THE AIRPORT SHOULD THEY FIND THEM?!?!
He recalled:
“I remember, I don’t know why, but our first Christmas episode was where the family was stuck at the airport in Colorado. We were trying to get to Becky’s family or somewhere and we couldn’t get through. I remember it really clearly. I think because Steph had a big piece where she was really worried that Santa wasn’t going to find her.”
And apparently, it was a dilemma the young pair took to heart!
Sweetin recalls treating Stephanie’s holiday emergency like “a legitimate” issue, surprising even herself:
“How are we going to solve this problem? You know? I have to make that little map that Steph has so Santa can find them and everything. I just remember that.”
Ha!!! Priorities, people! Santa needs directions!
In fact, Sweetin remembers having to make a little map for Stephanie to help Santa find the family and deliver their gifts. And nearly four decades later, that adorable detail has stuck with her!

And he remembered very well, albeit late Bob SagetWho played his famous TV dad Danny Tanner, appearing on a snow-covered airport conveyor belt!
However, for Sweetin, the entire experience was especially memorable because she was still a little child and was experiencing the magic of Christmas on television for the first time:
“It was the first time I got to play Christmas on TV, you know? As a kid, it’s fun and exciting.”
