Disney Movies to Watch before Disney World
When you are taking a trip to Disney you want to prepare. Not just making reservations and dinning reservations, but getting your family ready for the fun too! By preparing your family you will help foster excitement and will have fun in the process.
Although you can go to Disney World without doing any prep and have an amazing time, I think knowing who the characters are helps add to the magic. But sometimes knowing what movies you should watch can be challenging if you’ve never been to Disney World. I’ve made a {free} printable with park by park movies you should see to understand the rides and characters you might choose to interact with. There is also a top 21 or Top 9 list if you are pressed for time.
We laminated ours and kept it next to the TV for Family Movie Night. When you watch it you can just cross it off with a dry erase marker. Please use your judgment as to which movies your children are ready to watch. Some movies (such as Snow White, The Little Mermaid, and The Lion King) has some intense scenes that may be to scary for younger children.
