So I’ve had a lot of discussions during the past couple of weeks about how young kids these days missed out on some really great movies that were done before their time- take into consideration, I’m talking about kids below 10yrs old, like my girls. Last year, the girls got to see “Mary Poppins” for the first time and really enjoyed it- probably rewatched that thing at least a dozen times. That got the ball rolling. Next I showed them “The Sound of Music” & they also enjoyed “Annie”. Since then I’ve been determined to let them experience some of the good “old” Disney movies- at least once, then they can decide if they liked it or not. At least they won’t be missing out on anything J
So after some researching & inspiration from the Disney on Ice show last night, I’ve compiled a list of must watch Disney movies for kids- and those young at heart! Let me know, if you guys think of anything else that should be added to this list!

ET- I haven’t been able to find a copy of the original since they say the ones out now are the “politically correct” version. |

Back to the Future- I’m not sure yet if they will be able to comprehend much of this yet, so I’ll wait awhile |
