Searching for old kids movies

Hi guys, been a long time since the last time I was here. But you know how on occasion you're doing something and you recollect something else randomly? I got fragments of memories of several kids movies. . I think they were kids movies.

First one was about Noah's ark but from the perspective of termites. There was a dragon that dropped its egg and then ants or something. Like, evil ants who resided in the very front of the ship and the whole issue was resolved when the termites separated the bow.

Second movie was claymation, I think, and may've involved snow and winter and a plucky hero recruiting a team. One of the guys was a hunter or something. He had a whole bushel or basket of sticks which he claimed would be an army. And he planted them and they kinda became an army? I think they were trying to rescue a princess from a snow queen or something.

Third was some old cartoon. Set in Arabia, I think. Had a whole 'misunderstood prophecy' thing going on. I think the main character was a tailor. He recruited a band of gross outlaws to fight this apparently unstoppable force of I think mechanical bad guys. Like an army of clockwork things. And basically they are led to believe that they are to "attack" but in reality it was "a tack", like a thumb tack, which he throws and it gums up the works and he saves the princess.

Any help is appreciated.

First movie sounds like STOWAWAYS ON THE ARK (1988), a German cartoon.

Second I don't know, the third sounds like THE THIEF AND THE COBBLER.
