Paddington 2

Paddington 2: even better than it’s prequel. Paddington 1 was lovely. But, Paddington 2 is, in my opinion, so much better than Paddington 1.  As with the first, the colours are so bright and its beautifully filmed and Paddington himself is true to character. In this movie the plot is brilliant and isn’t as scary […]

Boss Baby makes the list of recommended movies for younger kids. Its harmless, no real villains and has good humour for parents who are having to watch.

Boss Baby – a mom’s review 

Boss Baby  I was not keen on Boss Baby when I saw the previews and adverts online. One day I got home from work to find the kids watching it… thanks nanny! Anyway, it happened and from that time on it’s been one of my 3 year old’s favourites. I think it must be the […]

The Incredibles 2 – great for kids older than 5!

UP! A beautiful movie for the whole family  I had forgotten how beautiful UP! is both in story and in creation. I’m really fussy about what my kids watch and this one is spot on. The story has it’s sad moments and happy beautiful moments. Visually, it’s bright and colourful.   I love UP! even […]

Movies for Kids: Storks

Storks – The animated movie

Storks   What a gorgeous family movie. I’m not the biggest fan of animated movies because there are generally awfully scary scenes or they just miss the mark but I just loved this movie.   I don’t know if Storks can be classified a “kids movie” but it is definitely a family movie. It leaves […]

Paddington Bear Movie (2014) – A mom’s review

The Paddington Bear Movie  The Paddington Bear Movie of 2014 is a interesting take on the story of Paddington, originally written  by Michael Bond. It’s not the same as any of the books but has retained all the characters and stays true to Paddington’s story.

Snoopy and Charlie Brown: The Peanuts Movie

The Peanuts Movie The Peanuts Movie is my favourite movie of this generation for kids. I just love it. I think I’ve bought three copies of the dvd to ensure that every grandparent set has it on hand.   If you’re looking for a lovely movie for your kids that is full of good values […]
