please can you suggest film DVDs for an 8yo girl?

[cadifflur]

I'm after some ideas for DVDs for my niece. We don't see her very often as my brother has access problems with his ex, so as a result don't know what she has at the moment.

Wondered if anybody could recommend some films that their 8yo loves, which might not be currently top 10, so less chance she will already have them? TIA.

Dd1 loves UP and the simpsons movie.

Bed knobs and broomsticks
Nims Island

The Mr Bean Movies (2 disc set available in Tesco for £5) also
Home Alone 1&2 also in tesco for a fiver now.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the one with johnny depp)

Matilda

Oh, the Wizard of Oz.

ponyo is very sweet

My 7.5 yr old dd loves Parent Trap - the Lindsey Lohan remake, Nim's Island, Spy Kids, 101 Dalmations and other corny stuff Also likes Bolt, The Incredibles, Nanny McPhee - I could go on for ages! She used to really enjoy Annie, mary Poppins, chitty chitty bang bang etc but we've not watched those for ages!

bed nobs

nim's island only 2.99!

Charlie and the chocolate factory. Actually the 1971 version is half the price and it was the best!

wizard of oz only 4.49 bargain

Matilda 2.99

a simple wish

Annie

not 100% keen on this but my dd loves tracy beaker

Just realised my dd is a film geek!

oh yes, good suggestions madamy, my dd loves Chitty chitty, The sound of music! The rail way children.

Haven't got Mary Poppins or 101 Dalmations. The old ones are often really good value on amazon. I never buy anything in the top 10 and when my dd has friends over they love her dvds because it's stuff they haven't ALL got and seen.

DD (just turned 8) also loves Nims Island, the Spy Kids series (all three of them), The Princess Diaries (1 & 2), Matilda, Nanny McPhee (1 & 2), Cats and Dogs, Firehouse Dog, Hotel for Dogs, Shaggy Dog (yes, she's a dog fan).

brilliant, thanks so much for all of the suggestions. I was hoping for the less popular ones, as less chance she already has them. will have a browse now, great

My nearly 8 year old loves The Secret Garden and The Little Princess - I think I have seen them sold in a box-set together.

Ponyo
Kiki's delivery service

All beautiful, magical films.

Ice Princess is popular here, as are both the Nanny McPhees. Matilda, Enchanted and the Princess Diaries too.
