Watching movies together provides valuable insights into what your family members find funny, sad, or frustrating. By discussing how others might react to a challenging situation happening to a character on-screen, you can discover new aspects that inform your own family dynamics.

Plus, watching movies is simply fun, and having fun is an essential part of life. To help you create the perfect night in, I put together a list of the best family movies.
