If my children love The Greatest Showman

What other films might they like? They are 9 and under and have pretty much only watched cartoon films until the Greatest Showman which they are completely obsessed with. I can’t think of other similar children friendly films. Any suggestions?

Mary Poppins
The Sound of Music
Annie (the original, but they may prefer the remake)
Hairspray
Oliver!
Bedknobs and Broomsticks (DH's 2bd favourite film after the Disney cartoon version of Robin Hood Grin)
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Pete's Dragon (I prefer the original, but there's a recent remake)
Bugsy Malone

God I love musicals!

Try The Newsies

I'd never heard of it before, my 12 yr old DD recently introduced me to it and I can't get the songs out of my head Grin

I’ve got a proper list going now, cheers :) Just goggled The Newsies, looks right up their street Grin

The Nightmare Before Christmas has lots of songs and is great fun. Might depend how young the youngest is though.

If it's the music they love then I'd second High School Musical. I recently bought 7 year old DD the box set - all 3 movies for £7. She also loves Disney's Descendants.
