16 Gift Ideas for boys and girls Who like movies, family friendly movies Recommended for Age(s): 4 - adult
 
Rango
Medium
My little man wants to become a sheriff now thanks to Johnny Depp's character Rango. A strangely satisfying movie in which a struggling actor(an iguana) finds himself helping residents in a desert town find their stolen water. At first he is just acting, then he courageously saves the town. Lots of action the sound is amazing, a real treat for the whole family
Toy Story - Special Edition (DVD) | Overstock.com

Toy Story is one of the newer family films to come out that is just as good every time we watch it together. Great animation, great soundtrack, funny for both young and old, Pixar and Disney did it right. To infinity and beyond!
Walmart: Love Bug (2-Disc) (Widescreen, Special Edition)

The songs have become a part of our hearts and our life as my son requests the cd over and over again while in the car. This movie is a heart felt story with joy, laughter and tears. The animation is amazing, as are the songs and the characters. There are many teaching opportunities as well as the film explores timless questions of life and death, and love. One of the best family films made.

The score is great and you will feel transported back to simpler times. Two big thumbs up
Scooby Doo DVD

Scooby Doo is one of my sons ultimate favorites, so when I saw this movie we had to get it. I liked seeing the movie having grown up watching Scooby Doo, and enjoyed watching it with my son. Mystery Inc goes to Spooky island only to find a little surprise in the end. A fun adventure for your family so you better split up and look for clues!

Mouse Hunt
Medium
This movie is older but a story about two brothers intent on catching a mouse in the house they've inherited. This is not any mouse, and your family will love Mouse Hunt. In the funniest scene from the movie Christopher Walken appears in a cameo as the exterminator, guarnteed to make your sides hurt! My son loves the slapstick humor, what a great way to spend an evening with your family.
Walmart: Spy Kids (Widescreen)
Medium
Antonio Banderas is excellent in this family adventure that is filled with nonstop action. When their parents are captured sister and brother must turn spy to help save them. My son has turned his watch and walkie talkies into his spy gear and is glued to the movie the entire time. I enjoyed the watching this movie and getting to see my son get so inspired by the kids in the film.
The Borrowers DVD
Medium
I found this movie and had to get it to share with my son as I remember watching it as a kid and loving it! An adventure for your whole family to enjoy. John Goodman is hilarious as the bad guy, and the design of the tiny Borrowers home within a house is remarkable. A movie your child will want to see over and over, my son does!

Medium
Wallace and Gromit are at it again! Wallace & Gromit: The Curse Of The Were-Rabbit is a hilarious family movie guaranteed to have your entire family laughing. My son gets giggle fits watching the duos crazy antics. This full length film has a great plot and extraordinary animation. Two thumbs up!
Dr. Seuss: The Lorax (Deluxe Edition)
Medium
Before the movie, there was a Dr. Suess book I loved as a child, The Lorax. Our Favorite edition of this movie is the old version, rather than the newer remake, call me nostalgic, but I love how close to the book the original movie is. This tale of environmental consciousness is a great family film, but also an important lesson for us as parents to hand down to our children. My son loves it!
