Great family films are often passed down through generations and not only do the films themselves bring great memories but also the memorable characters. Coming together to watch a film as a family can be a great way to spend time with your loved ones. Prime Video would love to know what your family films are and why?

Here’s what Prime Video have to say: “The smash hit family film Paddington 2 has just been added to Prime Video, joining thousands of great movies and TV shows the whole family can enjoy. Paddington 2 sees the loveable bear settled into life with the Brown Family and starting to do some odd jobs so he can buy Aunt Lucie a birthday present. Before he can get it, the gift is stolen by a master thief and Paddington is the suspect.”

“To celebrate, we want to hear what classics you watch with your kids. Prime Video has many to enjoy including Yogi Bear, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Alvin and the Chipmunks, The Gruffalo, Casper, The Wizard of Oz, Nanny McPhee, E.T, Beethoven, Tom and Jerry, Pingu, Thomas and Friends, Scooby-Doo, Kung-Fu Panda and Shaun The Sheep.”

What do you enjoy watching with your whole family? Do you go for the classic such as ET and The Wizard of Oz or do you prefer the new films such as Kung Fu Panda? Or maybe your family has a staple film that you all watch on special occasions?

Whatever your favourite films are to watch as a family, share them on the thread below to be entered into a prize draw to win 1 of 3 Amazon Fire Kids Edition Tablets, made just for kids.

Thanks and good luck

My DDs and me love watching some classics such as Toy Story, which we work our way through the trilogy at Christmas. We also all love SING and that is a go to film when we have spare time. More recently the Greatest Showman. They are too scared to watch Paddington 2 though!! They have strangely never been fans of Disney Princess films.

All sorts - DS is 5 and considers watching a film to be a real treat. We love the Disney classics like The Little Mermaid, Lion King, Aladdin and newer films like Finding Nemo, Rio or Happy Feet

It's Frozen all the way here..

BadlyWrittenPoem · 20/07/2018 20:49

My children love Black Beauty, Lady and the Tramp and 101 Dalmations. I think animal adventures is the theme/reason.

The Good Dinosaur is a favourite at the moment. We also enjoyed Moana (maybe me more than DS!) and Mune.

My son is only 30m so he prefers animation films but so far loves almost any Disney/Pixar films (moana and good dinosaur and toy story are favourites atm) plus highway rat and stickman. When he’s older am looking forward to watching some classics like Mary poppins, wizard of oz, Harry Potter and it’s a wonderful life.
