Movies for Kids
If the kids are your focus, there are many great movies to choose from.
Frozen
The first one that comes to mind is probably Frozen. This Disney favorite has a great story and wonderful songs to have the whole crowd sing along to. It just might inspire some of your guests to build a snowman.
Snow Buddies & Snow Dogs
If dogs are a group favorite, Snow Buddies from 2008 or Snow Dogs from 2002 are both good ones.Snow Buddies came from the Air Bud series. The story involves five puppies, an ice cream transport truck and a trip to Alaska… a big adventure for these puppies.
Snow Dogs is a PG rated movie. While it has a compelling story, it might be a little too much for small kids. Adults will like this one too as the story follow a dentist from Miami who inherits seven Siberian Huskies and one Border Collie from his biological mother.
Home Alone
You cannot do a winter themed movie-nigh and not consider Home Alone. This 1990 classic follows an 8-year-old as he is left home when his family rushes to the airport for a Christmas trip. He protects his house from two crusty, bumbling burglars. He also figures out that he can be self-sufficient.
These are just a few ideas. Momtastic features some other great movie ideas for the kids.

Cliffhanger
Sylvester Stall one stars in the 1993 action, adventure film Cliffhanger. In this one, a batched mid-air heist results in suitcases full of $$$ being searched for by groups of people throughout the Rocky Mountains. It’s a thriller!
