What You Can Do with Your Family on Disney+

There’s nothing like gathering around the TV with your family with a humongous bowl of popcorn. It’s a special kind of bonding that creates fond memories. With Disney+ as a streaming platform, you no longer have to scour channels for a show that the whole family can enjoy.

Some of the must-see movies and TV shows on Disney+ that you can watch together with your loved ones include:

Movies

  • Ratatouille
    Critics have dubbed it one of the most under-rated animation movies from Pixar. But with Disney+ streaming, you get to watch this amazing tribute to creativity and compassion, a talking rat who dreams of becoming a master chef. Moreover, with Peter O’Toole’s gravelly British accent doing the honors as a food critic, this movie is not to be missed.
  • The Parent Trap
    This was the highest point in Lindsay Lohan’s career ever. The classic remake of a beloved cult film wasn’t an easy act to follow, but there’s great acting from Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson to add the icing on the cake.
  • Hocus Pocus
    This goofy take on Halloween is an absolute laugh-riot, starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy. This zany trio plays triplet witches who are mistakenly resurrected in Salem, where they met their end centuries ago.
  • Newsies
    The history and events from the 1930s may be an overhead transmission to the kids, but this cult classic explores the forgotten world of newspaper delivery boys. You and your kids will love the music and charming songs.
  • The Little Mermaid
    This cute ‘80s animation will bring you tears, smiles, and lots of emotions. Though the theme goes against feminist ideology, it can certainly lead to discussions and debates.
