We will be joining our extended family at the beach in a few weeks. There will be different aged children and I’m looking for movie recommendations that are appropriate for the whole family. I think the older boys may be getting a little tired of animated movies, but I don’t want anything inappropriate for the young ones. Something the adults can enjoy as well. The ages of children are 12, 10, 8, 6, 5, 3, 2.
Ideas.
retrofamParticipantFrozen is the latest rage, not my favorite, but my teens as well as youngers liked it.
missceegeeParticipantI’m not into animated movies. I liked finding Nemo and Lion King and that’s about it.
Fly Away Home
Secretariat
jill smithParticipantFly away home is great!
KaylaParticipantThe Princess Bride!
Laura.boraParticipantJust wanted to give the heads that both The Princess Bride and Fly Away Home have language. Just one word in each, I believe – but not something you want little ones (or big ones!) repeating. They are easily muted for the one little part. However – both are great movies, so preview, and know where the one instance that you would need to mute in each movie is. 🙂
retrofamParticipantOcie Nash, Milltown Pride, and The Secrets of Johnathan Sperry
suzukimomParticipantNim’s Island
KarenParticipantThe Princess Bride is my all-time fav! The Rodents of Unusual Size in the forest scene would definitely scare my girls (ages 9,8,6,4)! So, you ought to be prepared for that.
2flowerboysParticipantLove Princess Bride!
I agree w/ The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry. We loved it so much we bought a couple to hand out! Awesome movie!
Monster’s University is cute and funny if you haven’t seen it. Funny for adults too! Only a couple times(quickly) do they show a set of monsters as scary. My boys watched the first one when they were probably 6 and 4, and it didn’t seem to bother them at all. But some kids are more sensitive.
KalleParticipantSwiss Family Robison is a favorite family movie in our house. We also love the Sound of Music, but it is quite long. My kids are 11 years to 2.
andreamParticipantThanks for your suggestions. Here are a few more I am considering. I haven’t seen all of them, do you have any input on these? Obviously we won’t be watching this many movies, but it will be nice to have choices and build a list for later.
Secret garden
Secretariat
Balto
Nanny McPhee
Freaky Friday 1976 version
Chicken run
The black stallion
Swiss family Robinson
Because of Winn dixie
Romona and beezus
Parent trap
Rascal
Newsies
Lady and the tramp
A little princess
Dolphin tale
Princess diaries
Pete’s dragon
The journey of Nattie gann
National velvet
Hanna Christian Anderson
The shaggy dog
Love bug
Fox and the child
2flowerboysParticipantI have seen and love Nanny McPhee, Princess Diaries, Love Bug, Parent Trap (even the old one has cocktails, smoking like the old movies, and a little suduction going on from the girlfriend), The Shaggy Dog (old version) the newer version is cute but crass sometimes.
I like Because of Winn Dixie but if I remember correctly it was sad?? Or am I mistaken? I also like National Velvet as well as Lady and the Tramp.
Good choices!
