Best Family Movies For The Holidays - How To Keep Your Kids Busy

With internet nowadays, you rarely see kids watching TV. Their TV is YouTube, Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook. If they’re watching Netflix, I guess that’s a good sign. Kids rarely watch anything longer than 3 minutes now. In our time, back when cable TV was still a thing, we learned culture through movies. Movies are great teachers of experience. While not all movies are recommended, there are a lot of good ones that teach us so many things.

Since you are the parent, you are in control. Don’t let your kids’ minds be formed by only one type of media. Let them appreciate other forms of media. Here are some movies you can watch together as a family (if you haven’t by now):
