What To Do With The Kids (WTDWTK) has re-released one of its more popular Special Reports just in time for this festive season. WTDWTK contacted parents from around the world through Linkedin, Twitter, Facebook as well as email, and asked them to submit their list of favorite Family Christmas/Holiday Movie or Television Shows. A copy of this special report is available for viewing on http://www.whattodowiththekids.com.
WTDWTK received over 440 movie and television suggestions of programs that date back as far as 1946 and as early as 2004. The most number of comments were by far for the classic black & white Frank Capra move “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Many people commented on how their family would get together just to watch this movie, including the younger ones.
