We selected the best movies to watch as a family this Christmas (even if they are not Christmas) with which the children will have a great time and you too, since in addition to entertaining, the movies leave us valuable messages to teach our children.

2. The great showman
A musical based on the life of P.T. Barnum with Hugh Jackman as the protagonist and a spectacular display on stage. Although set in the 19th century, the soundtrack is composed of original and modern themes that children will love.
