What a great giveaway! Some great movies in that bunch 🙂
This is the perfect giveaway for the school holidays. I’m already wondering how I’m going to keep my tribe enterained over the next two weeks…!
I will be hosting this giveaway shortly too!
The “Mr Bean” series is loved in our house by little & big kids alike. It always has us in fits of laughter!
Gardians of the Galaxy is one of the favorite movies in our home. It’s funny and it has great characters.
The Emoji Movie went down well in our household – seeing all the things on my phone coming to life on the big screen made the kids chuckle.
Hotel Transylvania – they are awesome movies.
Paw Patrol Sea Patrol my grand-kids love these pups who are hero,s my favourite is Marshall great competition good luck every one
Toy Story – it seems to be the only one the kids will sit still long enough for to let me have a coffee (while it’s hot ?)!
The emoji movie is awesome! It’s funny, entertaining and surprisingly taught my girl about different emotions!
Matilda!
A movie for young and old,
Funny, heart warming and bold.
A movie with magic and fun,
Perfect to watch with anyone!
We love the Jumanji movies. A great story and the newer one is more relatable to my son.
Cooper loves Paw Patrol and Charlie is beginning to notice the Wiggles (scary stuff)
It has to be Paddington both 1 and 2
My favourite movie is the original Jurassic Park I absolutely love it
Secret life of pets. My son is absolutely addicted. He calls it doggies and loves that all the pets talk.
Amazing giveaway!! Would love to win this for my little squirrel
Paw Patrol in our house, all the adventures are PAW-some to watch.
My kids are crazy about the Despicable Me movies and find Gru hilarious and wish their dad was like him.
We’ve just watched The Incredibles 2 which the whole family loved and now the kids want us to all dress up like them.
Cinderella because I love showing my daughter that magic really happens and wishes do come true!
We can’t seem to get enough Trolls atm! Just love the music, colours and characters
Our favourite at the moment is the Trolls movie. I think mostly its the music and dancing in the movie that most loved.
Despicable Me, it’s a great movie for the whole family, and I get a laugh everytime 🙂
Paw Patrol…we have a set of all the characters on EVERYTHING!!
Pinocchio is my kids favourite movie. I also love this movie. Teaches my kids right from wrong and that telling the truth is the right thing to do. It shows my kids that they are never alone and that someone is always watching over them. It also has catchy music which my kids love to sing….Hi diddle dee dee and Ive got no strings to hold me down ?
Mister Maker my little girl loves craft
Can’t beat Rocky Horror…especially since me and my girls know it word for word and all the lyrics (dammit Janet haha)
Anything Paw Patrol – the kids love watching the pups save the day and watch them every day!
Paw patrol??
The favourite in our house is Cinderella. The best thing to do on a cold winters day is snuggling up together on the couch and having a movie day. We haven’t seen any of the titles in the prize pack so would be amazing to win.
My kids watch Angry Birds movie most often, because Red is always grumpy and makes them laugh!!
Frozen all the way! Everyone is forced to endure this DVD at least one a week, even my 2 year old son knows all the songs!
Cars 3 is a favorite because its entertaining the kid really love this movie
Captain Underpants it has to be
A household favourite family movie
School mischief and fart jokes on repeat
My little boy’s reckon it’s hard to beat!!!
Toy story is a favourite in our house. We introduced our 1st child to it at a young age and now 3 children later we still love it.
I loved watching the brady bunch as a kid so I have re introduced it to my kids.
Labyrinth. An old time favourite classic!
Grease. My love for it has been imposed on the kids since they were in the womb. They love singing along when it’s on, and it’s on a lot, now because they want to watch it just as much as I do.
We love frozen
The lion king! The singing along makes it a karaoke experience every single time.
My Pet Monster, an 80’s classic I loved and now my own family adore!
‘Hans’ down, Frozen is number one with our kids… though we’ve seen it so many times, they simply will not ‘Let it Go’! Mum and dad wouldn’t at all mind putting this DVD ‘on ice’ and watching something ‘Elsa’, but the kids won’t even entertain the ‘thawt’! A new Cubby House selection to explore would finally give them more fantastic options!
Frozen…….the kids favourite, hubby and I cringe now every time it’s on, which is probably why my ‘laughter lines’ are becoming so pronounced! Bring on the next favourite, because this Mum can’t stand Frozen.
Peter Rabbit, great film happy that they’re enjoying it and to enjoy it with them. BUT not happy with what they’re now calling poor Peter Rabbit after an afternoon of their Uncle visiting. Perhaps the more they watch, the less inclined they will be to giggle incessantly calling Peter Rabbit, Penis Rabbit.
Note: Uncle has been banned by wife from visiting until he makes amends. Also, it is hard for us to stifle a smirk when they say it, bad parents nooooooo lol
So many good movies and shows,
Watched so many times, god knows!
Our favourite now is Hotel Transylvania,
The house goes monster mania.
Trolls is the flavour of the month, great movie with lots of great songs for a sing along for young and old
It’s all about Disney Cars in our house- Lightning McQueen rules!! Ca-Chow!! We never get sick of watching it. The characters are so entertaining, funny, sincere, it makes you want to take them out of the screen and be real! It has wonderful life lessons for young and old.
The Lion King as it’s fun for all. From laughing to singing, we cry when Mufasa falls. After watching it my son wishes he was a lion. So he runs outside growling through the dandelions. It’s a treasured movie that stands the test of time. Hakuna Mutata is our number one rhyme.
My son was given a few dinosaur books and it’s Dinosaur Train constantly here.
Land before time then Lion King, Toy Story these days the boys love the Marvel movies.
My kids love the Paddington movies, i love them too.
Frozen because try as we might we just cannot ” Let it Go” because we love it so much and its great with cocoa and marshmallows in winter
What a great pack something for all the kids here. Keeping fingers crossed
hotel transylvania 2
Captain Underpants is the favourite in my house,
and pulling pranks has become the norm,
Which I’ll admit is mostly funny……..
except the fake spider in my work uniform,
Its such a funny movie,
My kids watch it most nights before they go to bed,
and I find it quite adorable
when my son wears his underpants on his head.
The latest Jumanji movie, what an amazing movie & it’s even better then the first. The kids love it.
“The Lion King” is a firm favourite in our house. It’s such a beautiful movie which everyone loves to watch time and time again.
I love Mary Poppins
Who wouldn’t want to know someone that can tidy a room with the click of her fingers!
Plus my 7yr old thinks its awesome that hes the only one in his class who can say “supercalifragilisticexpealidocious”!
My girls are loving Ferdinand at the moment, as it is filled with cute animals, bright colours, lots of laughs snd catchy music, what’s not to like? Plus they now want to adopt a bull all of there own!
ok, so my kids love Hotel Transylvania it is on my TV every day 3 times a day without fail. it has gotten to the point were what ever I asked my two girls anything they just answer me back “BLAH BLAH BLAH” an run off giggling. which is only adorable the first 100 times lol
?HAPPY FEET?
We love that it’s about finding that special talent that we all have in us and love for family.
Our whole family been know to get up and enjoy a tap dance with cute little Mumbles when the movies on.
My kids love the Despicable Me Series, The Incredibles and Hotel Transylvania because they laugh so hard every time they watch them.
Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay, My oh my, what a wonderful day;
Plenty of sunshine headin my way, Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay.
Song of the South – An oldie but a goodie.
La la la la la la, It’s the Smurfs that makes movies fun, La la la la la la, everyone is happy and humming when the Smurfs movies are on. They are always in the great outdoors and they encourage our kids to get out and explore.
Yes this is do true I need to get my babies into smurfs (;
My girl loves her barbie movies while m6 boy is huge with blaze and the monster machines and paw patrol
Paw Patrol Sea Patrol, is the fav in our house,
Even watching, is the spouse!
No mission too big for the pups,

Despicable Me is the favourite, all three of them. The Grandchildren love them and it’s a joy to see them laugh.
Barbie is a girl best friend
amazing giveaway would love love love to win
Holidays are over for us, kids back at school. Their favourite movie was Monsters Inc. Oldie but a goodie. I love the little giggles it produces.
I know all the words to the Paw Patrol theme song. That’s not boasting, it’s a cry for help ?.
Paw Patrol reigns supreme in our house, but I think he’d really like a new DVD, because he’s watched the two he has over and over and over again.
In our house a favourite has to have a “lotta”
Magic, action and adventure
So of course it’s HARRY POTTER
“Over the Hedge” a bunch of north American animals terrorise a family home, it gets a little nutty so kids are in hysterics watching it.
my grandchildren would love this great prize for christmas with many hours of fun to be enjoyed with it
my son loves the wiggles, he’s in love with emma!
All of the despicable me movies. We love the humour of the minions.
despicable movies are the favourite at our place. the kids loves the minions.
Hotel Transilvania, it is funny when your three-year-old starts finishing every sentence with blah, blah, blah like Daddy Drak.
My grandkids would love coming over to see me, if I won these movies
The fave in our home is We’re going on a bear hunt. My little boy became obsessed with it a couple of months ago, it’s helped move along his delayed speech!
The Greatest Showman. Everyone from 3 to 103 loves this movie. Fantastic music and brilliant songs to sing along to. A visual spectacle of a movie too. Just perfect all round.
The lion King is one of our most loved shows, even wen our son is in bed it is our go to movie! To be honest, having kids movies is more for our benefit than our kids!
Home Alone! It is a movie I can’t even recall how many times we’ve watched – through every season, every Christmas, every school holidays, it has been played in our household! A classic that would never get old.
Princess Diaries is our current “keep kids quiet for an hour” go to movie. Am getting a bit sick of it now 🙂
My girl loves minions and Trolls. She watches them over and over
Hotel Transylvania without a doubt,
Laughs a plenty, giggles all throughout.
The kids have seen it countless times,
And along with the lines they mime.
A lot of fun is had with this movie,
This movie is anything but spooky!
It has to be Beauty and the Beast,
My daughter has watched it 10 times at least,
She never gets tired of the songs and dance,
And watching Belle take a chance.
Paw Patrol for the win, Little One thinking no daily play is a sin, always bringing a laugh and smile, ah with that cuteness the DVD can stay a while!
Despicable Me, we have the 3 and when we finish watching the first, the second and third must be seen!!
An awesomely amazing prize.. for holiday respite …and some items to be hidden away for the 4 LEOs in this family who have birthdays soon.
Finding Nemo because it teaches us a valuable lesson in a fun way – just keep swimming!
Barbie is definitely a win in our house for the 3 year old, which they only go for approximately 20mins and she knows once it is finished the TV is off. The means I have 20 minutes of piece and quite for the day .
Fantastic prize.
In my house we have a few faves and it depends on who you ask….
Despicable Me (franchise)
Marvel (action) movies
Star Trek (franchise)
Guardians of the Galaxy (franchise)
Paddington bear is our favourite! We love how the little bear goes on the best adventures with his marmalade sandwiches in toe! Paddington 2 was hilarious, we couldn’t believe how he ends up in jail and turns everyone’s uniforms pink! So funny
My daughter is going through a super cute stage,she pretends to be characters from frozen when she plays it’s so entertaining to watch.
