How Disney Taught Us Everything We Know

Like most kids growing up, I was utterly obsessed with Disney movies. I loved the songs, the characters, and the fact that all Disney movies have a great message within their stories. Below are some of the lessons that Disney movies have taught us!

Never grow up. – Peter Pan 

Don’t let your past dictate your future, but let it remind you of where you came from – The Lion King
Work hard and believe in your dreams – Cinderella 

Be kind to the world around you – Pocahontas 

True love is worth the wait – Cinderella 

Be determined and you will find your fate - Brave 

Never tell a lie, and always let your conscience be your guide – Pinocchio 

 Growing up can be difficult, but it’s rewarding – Bambi 

Your parents just want the best for you – Finding Nemo 

Always be loyal to your friends – The Fox and the Hound 

Love comes in many forms; never judge a book by its cover – Beauty and the Beast 

You can live with just the bare necessities – Jungle Book 

Arguably one of the greatest things about the films is that the messages always transcend age. No matter how old you become, or what walk of life you’re on, there is always a Disney movie that you can relate to because the moral of the story seems to hit home.
