Encanto

Movie · 2021

A warm, music-filled Disney adventure about a Colombian family where everyone has a magical gift except the hero, Mirabel. The biggest content notes are emotionally intense family arguments, a briefly implied off-screen death in a flashback, and peril scenes where the magical house cracks and collapses.

A great pick for ages 5 and up; sensitive kids around 5–7 may appreciate a parent nearby for the darker scenes.
