Halloween Movies For Kids! ( By Age Recommendation )
PLEASE READ:
Your child's sense of security should not be endangered for any small amount of entertainment.
It's hard to know what could be fun or possibly traumatic for a young mind. I am not a professional on these matters and have no degree in child psychology, but I do have 2 children of my own, a strong attention to the effects of media, and a fair amount of research on the topic. Ultimately, each home and child is different and parents should be responsible with what their children are watching.
Please remember that children process danger and safety in a very different way than adults, and if exposed to something confusing or upsetting, they can become very disturbed or possibly fixated on it. If you believe your child may have experienced something traumatic, please find a relaxed way to help them understand it, or possibly seek expert advice in severe cases of exposure to violence or terror.
