5. Paddington 2 (2018)

A movie that promotes the importance of family and good manners might seem like it could become the squarest of snoozes, but Paddington 2 is so transcendentally cheerful that it carries the day - and then some.

Parents should explain about what's going on sometimes because there are references to abstract thought and subconscious. Go to the movie and see Riley (the main character) how to deal with her feelings.
