Being stuck at home due to quarantine or no school is the perfect time to watch some family movies together. Pop some popcorn and pick a family movie off Netflix. Once the movie is over you can even start a family discussion about the movie.
After the kids have gone to bed you can find a new show to binge on Netflix too!
Family Discussions About Movies
Family discussions are great. You get to learn how people think, how situations make them feel, and understand what they like and don’t like. Plus, it gives y’all something to talk about.
