Finding a movie that the whole family will enjoy can be a challenge. I know from my own family that once we find one that everyone likes, we watch it over and over. And for families with kids, sometimes that means hearing Elsa sing Let It Go several times a week.

So if you’re looking for a break from Arendelle’s royal family, we’ve combed through Max’s movie catalog and found some new options for you and your family. Max has a surprisingly large kid-friendly movie collection, with classics like The Wizard of Oz, Spirited Away and Coraline to newer releases like Wonka, The Lego Batman Movie and Space Jam: A New Legacy.

Here are 11 of the best kid-friendly movies you can stream on Max right now.

This new blockbuster features Timothée Chalamet as Roald Dahl’s iconic Willy Wonka. The musical fantasy is a prequel, following Wonka in his journey to open his chocolate factory. This candy-coated flick puts a whimsy spin on a classic tale. If you’re more of a Gene Wilder fan, Max also has the 1971 version of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory available.
