18 Summer Movies You and Your Kids Need to Watch Together

Reasons they need to see it this summer: One summer, Scotty Smalls faces the struggle of moving away from his friends and having to make new ones, something that young children going through the same thing could have anxiety about. The movie proves that you can make friends even with the most unlikely people, and that though something may seem scary, you can face it with people who support you (and if it ends up not being scary, you might meet a cute dog or a retired baseball player).

What to look out for: The scenes showing the boys' perception of The Beast are a bit scary.

Ages it's best suited for: 8 and up
