Children learn life lessons from movies like Moana
Children not only enjoy watching movies like Moana, but also learn lessons from them and apply those lessons to their own lives. That is the conclusion reached by communication scientists at Radboud University. For example, a movie can inspire children not to give up, to work together and to develop their own identity. In addition, movies can encourage children to think about social issues such as climate change and beauty standards.
