Watching movies is a great fun activity which the entire family can participate in e.g. you might have a movie night together on a particular night and then later on the whole family can discuss the movie, what made it or failed for each of you.
Since the invention of the silver screen, animals have always been featured in movies to pass messages. African folk fore and tales have also incorporated animals in their stories ranging from lions to hares depicting various human characters.
