I need suggestions for something for DS to watch today while I do the ironing, he's more of an animation boy that a film boy really.

His favourite films have been:

Howl's moving castle
My neighbor Totoro
Finding Nemo
The return of the cats (see a theme here with the anime?)

What else is there that I can introduce him to?

Was thinking of the nightmare before christmas?
Looked for James and the Giant Peach but couldn't find it

Thanks
