Top 10 best highest IMDB rated family movies on Netflix

Finding time for a family movie night can be difficult, which is why it’s important to plan ahead of time by knowing the best family movies on Netflix. We advocate for less scrolling and more hanging. We scoured the library to bring you this list of Netflix highlights so you can get right into your next family movie night. Netflix can be both a blessing and a curse if you spend time with children. On the one hand, when it comes to watching movies, there is so much to choose from, including some of the best children’s films of all time. When it comes to screen time, you want to make every second count. On the other hand, with so much available every second of every day, deciding which movies to watch can be difficult. So, we bring to you the list of the best family movies on Netflix.

There are gentle adventures for the youngest children, as well as more action and fantasy for the older children. (However, because we tried to keep it PG, this isn’t really a list of Netflix teen movies.) Consult this before your next family movie night, and you’re sure to find something on which everyone can agree.
