5 Reasons to Take Your Family to Disneynature Movies

Wondering if you should take your family to see a Disneynature film? For those with kids in upper elementary school and up, I recommend going to see Disneynature films during the first week they are released to theaters or available for home video. Here are 5 reasons to take your family to Disneynature movies:

Welcome! If you're new here, you may want to like our facebook page, or subscribe to our newsletter for projects and play ideas to do with your kids! Thanks for stopping by!

Reason #1 – 10 Years of Nature Movies

With the recent release of Disneynature Penguins, Disneynature is now celebrating more than 10 years of spectacular moviemaking! In that time, Disneynature has consistently produced top quality nature films for families to enjoy.

Reason #2 – Support Conservation Efforts

If you are planning to take the family to see a Disneynature film, be sure to go during the first week of theater sales. Why? Because when you purchase tickets to see a Disneynature film or buy the home video during the first week of sales, Disneynature will make a donation that goes toward conservation efforts. Those donations can have a BIG impact.

Here are is a breakdown of just some of the donations that have been made by Disneynature audiences in theaters during opening week:

Reason #3 – Explore Stories About Families

Disneynature films explore stories about animal families with universal themes that can apply to all species: nesting, starting a family, protecting and raising babies, babies growing up and starting to seek independence. Along the way, we are inspired, engaged in the story, and educated on these amazing animals and their habitats.

Reason #4 – Learn About Nature Together

With Disneynature movies, many times you can find free activity packets and educator guides available online as free printables.

We especially loved the latest activity guide for the movie Penguins and the accompanying educator guide for grades 2-6.
