Bringing Back Family Movie Night: 25 Movies to Watch With Your Kids by Ann Marie Gardinier Halstead

Long gone are the days when my kids watched Toy Story, Shrek and Kung Fu Panda over and over. While I don’t miss watching the same movie on repeat, I do miss the togetherness, everyone cuddled up on the couch, eating popcorn. So this summer my husband and I decided to make an effort to spend more time watching TV and movies together as a family. 

Here’s a list of some television shows we have already watched and enjoyed, as well as those that are on our must-see list:

• "America’s Got Talent"

• "Impractical Jokers"

• "The Masked Singer"

• "Press Your Luck" (A favorite game show from my childhood is back!)

And here are the movies we have enjoyed or plan to soon. (Note: Our sons are 13 and almost 10. For movie ratings and recommendations, visit Common Sense Media.) Which movies and shows are on your must-see list?
