Nowadays kids movies have reached new levels. They have superb animations in them and characters and story lines are really nice too. But some problems have also risen in the kids movies. Some are made around emotional themes. So it becomes really necessary to first watch these movies yourself and then if you think the movie is appropriate for your kids, let them enjoy it too. But how to evaluate the movies? Follow these tips:
If you notice that your child is scared of the strange creatures in his books, then you should also not let him watch the movies with animated crazy creatures in them. These will also scare your kid.
If your kid gets scared during sleep and wakes up, then again its a hint, that you don't let him watch the kids movies with scary animations or creatures. This will increase the fear in him.
If your child gets tired watched the cartoons of short duration like Dora The Explorer, you should not let him watch the longer kids movies.
You might notice him during the play. If he gets scared, when someone chases him, it will not be a good idea to let him watch scary fictional movies.
If your kid is not comfortable in loud or noisy environments, don't get him some action packed thriller movie. These will be noisy too.
Now you can test all of these, before letting him watch the movies. You can start with a shorter duration movie. A 45-60 min long movie will be good. This will tell you if your kid can watch the movie without getting tired. See if he shows any sign on anxiety and can he sit for 45-60 minutes without any break.
And also in the start, don't let him watch a movie which has a weird looking nasty villain. After letting him watch the movie, wait for a week. And check, if the movie has any negative after effects on your kid.
Different kids get afraid of different characters and things. Some are afraid of giants or wizards, others are afraid of witches and clown etc.
As mentioned earlier, the best way to make sure that the movie is good for your kid, is to first watch it yourself. And then if you think it will not have any negative effect on your kid, let him watch it and enjoy it too.
