March Break Fun With Our Netflix Family Film Fest
March break is officially here!
After running around with our busy schedules, we are finally happy to be able to relax in our house. We can now slow down and do some fun and relaxing activities. One of our favorite things to do is to watch movies on Netflix. There are so many great movies that we can’t always agree on witch movie to watch first. No matter what, mommy and daddy are getting a well-deserved quiet time.
Here are some of the movies we have been watching.
Our suggestions for your younger children
- Turbo (Available March 12)
- Princess Lillifee and the Little Unicorn
- My Friend Bernard
- Moonbeam Bear and His Friends
- Happy Feet Two
- The Voyages of Young Dr. Doolittle
- Thomas & Friends: Creaky Cranky
- Dora The Explorer: Star Catcher
Our suggestions for your older children
- Akeelah and the Bee
- Gulliver’s Travels
- The Croods
- Antz
- Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events
- Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer
- Hugo
- National Treasure
Between two movies we also enjoy doing craft activities at home. I often purchase craft supplies on sale so we always have them handy. This weekend we did this cute daisy bracelet. We are planning on doing many more of them in different colours. Stay tuned for the tutorial on making this daisy bracelet.
No matter what you are doing during this March Break, make sure to enjoy every minute of it!

Theresa says
We signed up for Netflix last month and I am loving it! I am currently catching up on tv shows that I missed!
Nikki says
My son loves Netflix. He watches something on it just about every night. It’s so convenient because we can access it on the Wii, XBOX and computers, so it’s always available.
Marni | Love and Duck Fat says
Great picks for the little ones! Mine needs to get just a little older (a year or two). Until then, we are sticking to Baby Einstein.
Kristen says
We have been watching a lot of Netflix because of the cold this winter. My 2 year old Loves Mulan.

Hurrah for March Break! I saw and loved Hugo. We still have one kid left who hasn’t seen it yet.

You have some great suggestions there, we’ve seen a few. I personally really want to see The Croods, haven’t had a chance to see it yet.
Fabulous Perks says
We love Netflix here in our home, we watch loads of great movies on the weekends. We saw a few of the ones listed here.
Amanda Love says
We’ve had Netflix for years and don’t see ourselves getting rid of it any time soon. My daughter is heading off to college so that may be the only TV she can watch and it’s all she watches right now anyway. Those are some great collections and my toddler is in love with the Croods. Ta-da-dah! 🙂
Aisha Kristine Chong says
I haven’t seen a lot of those – I’m sure my niece will enjoy these things.
Pam says
Our family is a big time Netflix user in this household too. I love the different TV shows and movies that you can watch that otherwise one would never hear of. Very cute bracelet!
April says
Sounds like you’ve got a fun week planned! We really enjoy Netflix when we do have time to watch TV. It’s nice to no have commercials and to have so many different options.
Tough Cookie Mommy says
That daisy bracelet craft is really adorable. We love Netflix here in our home and we enjoy having family movie nights regularly.
Sarah Bailey says
Oh I’ll have to check for some of these – our selection is slightly different to yours so *fingers crossed* x

My son saw “My friend Bernard” on Netflix the other day! He really liked it. Also he’s been watching “Tad: The lost Explorer”!
Jennifer Williams says
I am hoping our weather will be nice and we could get out for spring break and enjoy some fresh air. We love Netflix though, the first thing we did when we moved into our new home is hooked up Roku for Netflix for my youngest.
Ashley Gill says
My daughter is 5.. I think she’d like My Friend Bernard. I’m going to suggest it to her next time she is looking for something to watch on Netflix! Thanks!

My Grandson loves watching movies on TV, but they limit his TV time which I think is a good thing. He loves to craft also, so that is what they do to keep him busy.

We have had Netflix for years in our house and we use it all the time! We use it for movies and tv shows! They have a great selection.
