The 100 Greatest Kids Movies of All Time, According to Movie Critic Dads (Fatherly.com)

"Fatherly's goal here is to offer up movies that every kid must see by the time they're 10 years old. These are kids movies for kids at a time in their development when the world is full of wonder & real magic, and jaded Hollywood critiques of films haven't crept in yet. We got together six dads plus one film expert — all of whom are film critics — and compiled a list. There were rules: Each film had to be well-received enough to have mostly favorable reviews on respected publications like Common Sense Media or Rotten Tomatoes. These had to be films that families could find easily. And the movies had to exhibit a timeless quality. In some instances, we expanded our scope beyond movies that are strictly for kids but no matter what, we strived to make sure that the films made sense for families. These are movies that families do watch and should watch together. This list isn't about making your kids happy. It's about watching movies together that inspire something bigger." - fatherly.com
