Top 10 Animated Children's Movies

Over the years, we have been exposed to many amazing animated children's movies. Nothing was better than actually watching these films as a child. We were so lost in the world of those animated movies that the dirty references flew right over our heads as our parents silently cracked up next to us. These films were such a huge part of our childhood and bring back many fond memories.

And so, here are the top 10 animated movies. While not all of these were from our childhood, they can bring out the child in all of us once again.

10. Aladdin

Disney made a lot of princess movies but none match up to this one (other than maybe snow white).

9. Up

What this movie showed us is that you are never too old for an adventure. While the beautiful yet depressing opening scene had us in tears, the rest of the movie had us smiling and laughing our brains out.

8. Despicable Me

Only Despicable Me could make a great movie about a villain. What truly made this movie were the minions.

7. The Incredibles

A great movie for a family gathering. The only other thing I can say is "WHERE IS MY SUPER SUIT?!"

6. Monsters, Inc.

Not much more you can say about this other than the fact that it is just a great movie. Even if you are not into children's animations, you can't help but enjoy this movie.

5. Frozen

It may have been recently released, but that does not take away any of the greatness that this movie possesses. The jokes still made us laugh, the songs still made us sing along, and the movie made us all children again.

4. The Lion King

There has never been a more beautiful opening scene to a movie than the "Circle of Life" in The Lion King. The movie truly defines the Hero's Journey that we learned about in high school english.

3. Toy Story

This ranking is based on not only the 1st movie, but also the second and third. No movie screams childhood more on this list. What makes these movies so great is the timing of the releases. By the time Toy Story 3 had been released, most of us had grown up to the teenage phase of our lives. But after the ending scene of the movie, we all learned that you can grow up out of your childhood but you can never leave your childhood.

2. Finding Nemo

Just a great movie. It really showed when it made $936.7 million in the box office. If you didn't see finding Nemo as a child, then you must not have had a childhood. Also, Crush is my spirit animal.

1. Shrek

Simply the best. Whether you are a kid or an adult, this movie remains the funniest, most clever, and best animated movie ever. Not to mention it has the second best soundtrack in history, only to High School Musical.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
