Is your child a T.V.
lover?
Let’s be truthful, I know
the answer is yes. Even in my case it is just the same. With trending nuclear
family system and single child parenting, kids get isolated. They have no one
to play with and more importantly they don’t want to adjust.
Playing with same toys or
indulging in same activity may not work best to keep them involved for a longer
period of time. Even they require a break from their normal routine.
Let’s utilize their T.V.
time in movie watching. It can be a fun activity alone or with family members. These
movies are not only entertaining but packed with positive message and role
models. Kids are copy cats, they like to imitate what they see.
Movies have a significant
potential in imparting wisdom, several emotions with life lessons, cultural
development, humorous moments and even at times tears. It has proven to be a
great learning tool for kids.
Movie time does not
require much preparation, just a comfy couch and a bucket of popcorn, that’s
it.
Following are 10 must
watch, inspiring movies for kids which will keep them glued till the end, no
matter they have their bucket of popcorn or not.
