#1 Home Alone
Holiday season cannot be spelt without watching this 1991 Chris Columbus classic! The all too well-known, thoroughly enjoyable story of an 8 year old boy, accidentally forgotten at home by his family while they leave for France, will get you cracking every time you watch it! Out of the lot one of the best Family Autism Movies you can watch with your child.
#2 The Santa Clause

#3 The Polar Express
This is a 2004 animated movie based on the book of the same name, wherein, a young boy boards the Polar Express and embarks on an extraordinary journey to the North Pole, where he meets Santa. His life takes a magical turn when Santa picks him to receive the first gift of Christmas.
#4 Life, Animated
A 2016 American documentary by Roger Ross William, this movie is based on the novel by Ron Suskind, ‘Life, Animated – A Story of Sidekicks, Heroes and Autism’. It covers the life of Owen, who struggled with autism and learned how to communicate with the outside world through his love of Disney films. It’s one of the best autism movies you can watch!
#5 The Grinch
Based off the book and 2000 movie, ‘How The Grinch Stole Christmas’, this 2018 movie is another classic story of The Grinch and his loyal dog, Max, who live a solitary existence inside a cave on Mount Crumpet. His main source of aggravation comes during Christmastime when his neighbours in Whoville celebrate the holidays with a bang. When the Whos decide to make Christmas bigger and brighter, the disgruntled Grinch realises there is one way to gain peace and quiet. With help from Max, the green grump hatches a scheme to pose as Santa Claus, steal Christmas and silence the Whos’ holiday cheer once and for all. It’s one of the best Family Autism Movies.
It’s nice to see good write up like this at least once in a while ??
I am so glad you took out some time away and spent time with your son, which is so important. We did the same, though were also busy working behind the scenes, doing up the ABC forum and the blog too, and would be starting off with a bang from tomorrow now.
I wish I had time to watch movies! But as my kids do, and we often wonder how safe they really are – the sites – we don’t allow them to download from a lot of them. I guess the ones you mentioned are all safe, so I would pass it on to them for sure.
Thanks for sharing it with us. Have a nice weekend ??

I love the first movie shown. I have yet to watch the others. I hate Avatar.

Putting Home Alone on an autism movie list just because it’s a popular kid’s film is a reach. Life, Animated actually makes sense here, but the rest feel like a random list of holiday staples.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We appreciate your feedback and will keep it in mind for future updates.
Calling Home Alone an autism movie is a bit of a stretch just because the kid is quirky. Life, Animated is the only one on this list that actually makes sense.
Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your perspective and agree that Life, Animated is a powerful and authentic autism-related film.

Happy to hear you enjoyed the content
I think the more useful way to choose a movie for a child is to look at the individual child rather than simply calling something an “autism movie.” Some kids may enjoy loud comedy like Home Alone, while others could find the sudden sounds, shouting or fast scenes overwhelming. Life, Animated is a very different type of viewing and could also lead to a good conversation afterward. Checking the movie beforehand for sensory triggers seems like a small step, but it can make family movie time much more comfortable.
Thank you for sharing this thoughtful perspective! We completely agree—every child has different sensory preferences, so choosing a movie based on the individual child can make the experience much more enjoyable.
May I just say what a comfort to discover an individual who truly understands what they are talking about over the internet. You certainly understand how to bring an issue to light and make it important. More people must look at this and understand this side of the story. I was surprised you’re not more popular since you most certainly have the gift.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We truly appreciate your support and are glad you found our blog meaningful.
