Holly appeared via video link from Chester's school to explain her absence.
Phillip told her: "You're doing what parents up and down the country will be doing this morning."
Holly said it was the "perfect way to start" Christmas on December 1.
Chester has a "very important role" in the modern twist on the nativity as he plays Father Christmas.
"I've got a packet of tissues because I'm ready for a good cry," said Holly.
"It's going to be emotional."
She then thanked her co-host and show bosses for giving her time off work.
"Thank you for letting me come here," Holly said.

";it means the world, it really does. Thank you, thank you."
Phillip told her: "As soon as it's finished we're whisking you back as soon as possible."
About 90 minutes into the daytime show, Holly arrived mid-interview to join the "world's ugliest dog".
Phillip said: "It was very peculiar without you."
