Wall-eI absolutely adore this movie! It's about how a cute little garbage compacter named WALL-E and his friends discover that life on earth is still possible. It's honestly a pretty realistic prediction of our future if we continue to pollute and accumulate waste. I love the story of friendship in love told through actions rather than words and the music really warms your heart! P.s. I really hope we won't get to the point where we're slurping burgers out of plastic cups oe any cups lol it does not sound appetizing! My neighbor totoroProbably one of my favorite movies of all time! Hayao Miyazaki's movies are a must watch. This movie is about a family and two sister who just moved into a village. They meet all sorts of cute creatures when they explore the area and some very fluffy ones too! Totoro the big guy in the poster is a friendly spirit that can only be seen by children. It's a great story about family and helping one another! I love the scenes where they literally grow a forest! The theme song is literally stuck in my head right now! MoanaNow I feel like the song they put was a little too similar to Let It Go but I loved it regardless! Finally some representation in Disney, it's been too long! Anyways Moana is a story about a girl well named Moana, she's unlocks her secret past of her families history and how they sailed across the ocean. Her people's island was dying and the fish were depleted. The story of mother nature and friendship is truly beautiful in this movie and we are very lucky to learn a little about the Polynesian culture. Spirited aWAYI've probably watched this movie a thousand times! It's one of the first times I got to see a strong female main character. Spirited Away is a beautiful story about a girl named Chihiro who moves with her family to a new place. They end up taking a little road trip to an empty village with a huge bath house. Her parents show how greedy humans can be and end up turning into pigs leaving Chihiro to fend for herself in this new world filled with spirits but she meets some amazing friends along the way. The story also shows themes of pollution caused by humans. Definitely my favorite movie of all time! PonyoI think this movie is adorable! It's a bit more abstract in the art but it's very beautiful. Ponyo is a goldfish who becomes human and befriends a little boy in the seaside village. This imbalance caused a tsunami to wash over the village. It shows themes or pollution and friendship but also to respect nature. The Lorax"I am the Lorax and I speak for the trees" that saying will always be ingrained in my head! If you love trees and Dr. Seuss I would definitely recommend this movies and the book. It's about standing up for those who cannot speak and in this case it would be the trees and protecting them from deforestation. This movie will always remind me of when my high school physics teacher would recite the whole entire book for memory on stage at our school summer camp right before the new school year! ferngullyThis movie is filled with magical fairies that live peacefully in a beautiful forest called FernGully. One day Crysta, the fairy decides to venture outside the protected land and end up meeting all sorts of creatures they've never seen before like bats and even humans! It's an old movie but definitely worth a watch! Heavy deforestation themes here. Over the hedgeThis movie is hilarious! It tells a fun story from the perspective of the suburban wildlife and how they survive by stealing food from the humans. I mean technically the animals were there first! They plan a food raid and try to escape from the exterminators. In the end they learn what it means to be a family. HootSave the owls! This movie is about how a group of kids stumble upon an owl's home. Later they learn that construction workers were going to tear it up so they team up to save the owls habitat! Happy FeetWho doesn't love penguins?! This movie takes you on a musical journey of the Emperor Penguins. They sing, dance and talk! They run into a ton of trouble along the way from predators to plastic rings, to overfishing which depleted their food resource. Catch Happy Feet and their cuddly but fierce journey of survival! What's your favorite environmental kids movie?
