Films You Can Enjoy With The Family This Autumn

As the weather starts to turn colder and it starts getting darker earlier on an evening, the kids won’t be going out to play. This means you will have to find ways to entertain the younger members of the family. One of the easiest ways to encourage the family to spend time together and keep everyone entertained is by having a family movie night.

Anyone that has been forced to sit through hours of bad children’s television can tell you that being forced to sit through a terrible children’s film is a mind numbing experience. We’ve found some of the best films to watch as a family this autumn.

1.  The Princess Bride (1987)

This might seem like an old film for some, but it’s definitely stood up to the test of time. This is a film guaranteed to keep the whole family entertained. There’s a princess for the girls, swashbuckling for the boys and humour that the grown-ups will appreciate.

2. Matilda (1996)

Based on Roald Dahl’s classic book, this may have originally been intended for children but the humour definitely takes adults into account.

3. The Addams Family (1991)

While some very young children might be put off by the Gothic appearance of the characters this is definitely a family film guaranteed to keep everybody laughing.

4. The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)

This film sees Jack Skellington discover Christmas, but not quite understand what it is. Some young children may get scared by some of the residents of Halloweentown so this might be better for the older members of the family.

5. Ice Age (2002)

Most children are familiar with the Ice age series, but it’s always good to go back to the beginning. This film is guaranteed to keep the whole family entertained and if everybody loves the characters then there are another three films for you to enjoy.

When you’re settling down for a movie night it’s important that phones are switched off, popcorn is within easy reach and that everybody is comfortable and warm. This winter it’s important that your Double Glazing is up to scratch and guaranteed to keep your family warm.
