I decided to build this lens because I find myself reaching back into my past and remembering movies, I used to watch, games I played and thinking to myself. What the heck was I watching? So I decided that it would be fun to bring those memories to life and share them with you so you and your kids might find joy in them also.
I wanted to build this lens so all of us could bring our joyful memories together and recommend the ones that you think other people might find joy in. So if you have any past or present time recommendations to share please do so. I could be fun. I would love to know what you enjoy or enjoyed. Thanks for coming!
Also please visit my blog at Fun stuff for kids if you looking for ways to keep your kids busy and want them to learn at the same time. Here I am always recommending great sites to help kids have fun and learn.

This was my favorite movie as a child! I used to rent it every weekend for a few years, got on my parents nerves. But I loved it then and I love it even more now.
-Drop Dead Fred
Bought this for my 9 year old daughter and she can't stop watching it! She loves this movie! Thinks Fred is great and loves the "pants pie"....lol!
Most people gave this movie 4 to 5 stars. I highly recommend this for your kids or even adults.
~Here an odd one that I remember as a child. This one would be great for your kids! Little Monsters" (1989). Read about the movie here. Here are some reviews:

~Here is one that I loved as a little girl. The Secret Garden"(1993). This one is a beautiful story, it is a very emotional movie. I highly recommend this, especially for young girls. Read about the movie here.
Here are some reviews:
A Masterpiece! Best version of the story.
I love this movie, the best version of a classic story. The screenplay, casting, acting, sets, music, cinematography, costumes, everything is first rate.
Magic, Love, & the Importance of Family,
The Secret Garden is a movie I watched as a child and even now I watch and love every moment of it. This movie is by far the most accurate that I have seen
Wings n Things The Secret Garden
This master piece addresses many levels of our mind and heart at once. It carries a basic moral lesson that unconditional love heals.It is however much more powerful than that.
This movie has a average of 5 stars by the majority of people.
~One that I highly recommend is The Witching of Ben Wagner (1987). But the catch is, it is impossible to find. I have check amazon, eBay, IMDB everywhere. So I will be looking and if I find it I will post it. Also if anyone else knows anything about this one please let me know. Read about the movie here.
~Here's a great comedy Arsenic and Old Lace"(1944). Read about the movie here.
Here are some reviews:
-Hilarious!!!!
This movie is a classic! Cary Grant at his best!!!!! Need a good movie for family night? Get this movie! Need a good laugh? Get this movie!
-One of the best movies of all time!
My whole family loves this movie. We love every movie Cary Grant was in, but this is one of his all time best!
-arsenic and old lace

My So Called Life (1994), starring
Claire Danes and Jared Leto. I used to watch this when I was younger. I absolutely loved it. I wasn't in high school at the time, so it made me curious about what high school was going to be like.

Brought back some memories for me. Thanks. Someday the Canadian TV show "Staycation" will also be only a memory for me. (Of course, we can get DVDs now so not totally true.) I like the way you write. 5 stars, favorite and lensrolled to my Staycation lens. Posted May 09, 2008 |
