The Winter months can mean lots of time spent indoors when kids are home from school due to inclement weather. Did you know that many of your kids’ favorite books are available to watch instantly on Netflix Steaming? This is a great excuse to spend the day cuddling up reading a great book, then watching the movie together in the evening for a book-themed family movie night!

Here are some of our favorite books that are also available to watch on Netflix Streaming:

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (ages 8-12)

This book was required reading for my daughter’s 5th grade class, and she loved reading it! Afterwards, her class watched the original movie and the more recent remake. They compared the book to both versions of the movie and completed lots of other projects too.

An adorable picture book about a bat that loses her mother and ends up in a bird’s nest where she is raised by birds.

The Gruffalo (ages 3-7)

One of my 7 years olds favorite picture books about a very clever mouse who makes up a creature called a Gruffalo to avoid being eaten by a fox, an owl, and a snake.

One of my personal favorite books when I was a kid, and now both of my kids enjoy this book and movie too!
