Best Family Movies During Quarantine
Another wave of the COVID19 Pandemic has hit and if you are like our family, you are watching a bit more television. Why not turn it into a family night and snuggle up and watch some family movies?
The problem that I discovered when I Googled, "Best Movies for Ten Year Old Kid" was that most of the suggestions that came up were loud and annoying movies. Don’t get me wrong, I love both the Avengers and Transformers but sometimes it is nice to watch a family movie that keeps your child's attention AND covers topics like empathy and relationships.
Here is our family movie list. Some of the movies have a bit of swearing and violence so check the ratings prior to watching. Many are available on Netflix.
A Perfect World (1993)
Secondhand Lions (2003)
Hachi: A Dog's Tale (2009)
The Kings of Summer (2013)
Fly Away Home (1996)
My Girl (1991)
Treasure Planet (2002)
The Way, Way Back (2013)
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)
A Dog's Purpose (2019)
What's Eating Gilbert Grape (1993)
Stand by Me (1986)
