What would you consider to be a kid’s flick…kid meaning preschool/early elementary in my case? My boys got the Cars DVD for Christmas and they just LOVE it.
I’ll be honest, I have yet to watch the entire movie, and maybe I should have “screened” it first. From what I’ve seen, it doesn’t seem all that bad EXCEPT when the characters refer to the town as “Hillbilly He(double hockey sticks)”. I try to fast foward past these parts since J is at an age where his he seems to be picking up “interesting” words to add to his vocabulary. This movie is rated “G” too. Couldn’t they have used a different word instead of He(double hockey sticks)? Luckily, he hasn’t picked up this word yet!!
So what movies have you all found to be great for younger kids (not too scary and without profanity)? I heard Curious George and Robots were good picks…any other suggestions?
I don’t know why they have to put inappropriate things in kids’ videos. It’s ridiculous. I know that fortunately, a lot of it goes over kids heads, but I’m still left asking, “Why?” I guess they must be trying to attract the adult audience since obviously kids don’t even get it half the time. I remember thinking that Shrek was particularly horrible. I loved it myself but for kids? Not so much. Sorry I don’t have any recommendations. I still haven’t even seen Cars!
