Encanto (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
This joyful, Grammy-winning album is a warm celebration of family, identity, and self-worth rooted in Colombian musical traditions. A handful of songs explore heavy emotional territory — feeling overlooked, carrying family pressure, and processing generational grief — but always with warmth and resolution.
A great fit for kids 4 and up; the big feelings songs may spark meaningful conversations for slightly older listeners.
Track by track
Mirabel's solo is about feeling left out and overlooked by her family — a relatable ache for many kids worth talking through together.
This reggaeton-driven song voices the weight of carrying others' expectations and the fear of falling short — powerful for older kids, but may feel intense for very young listeners.
Multiple characters recount superstition-tinged, slightly ominous personal stories about a family member, with one verse delivered in a hushed, dramatic tone; lighthearted overall but momentarily spooky in feel.
