I cannot even begin to tell you guys how glad I am that we have all survived back to school and that our family routines are back in full swing. I’m thoroughly enjoying the change of seasons here in New York City and I’ve even started digging my boots and leggings out of the closet. To make everything even better, Disney is now on Netflix. Yes, you read that correctly, all of our favorite Disney films have arrived on Netflix!
Disney films are just perfect for snuggling on the couch during family movie night and we have already planned our first gathering to watch Disney’s Zootopia. We are so excited about spending some time with Judy Hopps and making some of our favorite movie time snacks like ice cream sandwiches. I can’t wait to also introduce my boys to HOLES since it has been one of my favorite Disney films for years and I have also greatly enjoyed teaching the book to my students over the years.
If you have school-aged or pre-teen children at home, HOLES is the perfect combination of mystery and adventure. Its setting revolves around a Texas detention camp where delinquents are forced to dig holes every day in order to help the inmates develop character. As time goes on, they realize that there are other reasons for their constant digging. In my opinion, it is the perfect movie for prompting conversations about friendship, consequences, and perseverance.

Family movie night is the best! I love how you make it an event. Holes is a fantastic movie. Haven’t seen Zootopia yet, but was so happy when I saw it on Netflix. My kids are grown, but I don’t need youngsters to enjoy a funny animated flick.
I really have to get Netflix–children or not-I LOVE Disney movies! That ice cream sandwich will be made by me and eaten very soon!!
I grew up watching Holes, so I am extremely excited to see it come to Netflix!!! I can’t wait to watch it with my 7 and 8 year olds. They will love it I’m sure.
I am so excited about this!! I love Disney movies, this will make for a great streaming weekend.
