Kiki's Delivery Service
A young witch sets out on her own to complete a year of independent training, running a broomstick delivery service in a charming seaside city. The story is gentle and heartfelt, with its biggest challenges being emotional rather than frightening.
Comfortably suits most children from about age 5 and up, with younger viewers likely needing a little reassurance during a few tense moments.
If you’d rather skip
Kiki flies through a thunderstorm at night with heavy rain and lightning, which may startle younger viewers.
Kiki loses her ability to fly and speak with her cat, and becomes withdrawn and sad, which can feel upsetting for children who connect with her.
Kiki's loss of confidence and magic is a natural opening to talk with children about self-doubt, burnout, and how rest and friendship can help.
