It’s March – the season when winter loses its grip and the clocks spring forward, leaving plenty of children (and parents) a little groggy as everyone adjusts to the lost hour of sleep.

But despite the sleepy mornings, there’s plenty of good news: The days are growing warmer, the evenings are stretching a little longer, and trees all around us are beginning to bud.

March is also a great time for a movie night. March’s streaming lineup includes several uplifting titles perfect for families looking for something inspiring, entertaining, and worth watching together.

Here are seven titles worth streaming this month for families:

<strong>Clifford the Big Red Dog</strong> (Netflix)

Clifford the Big Red Dog (Netflix)

A young girl who is struggling to fit in at a new school finds unexpected friendship in a tiny red puppy whose unconditional love changes her outlook. But when her devotion causes him to grow into a giant dog towering over her own home, she must defend him – and herself – against others. It’s a charming live-action film based on a series of books by author Norman Bridwell. Rated PG for impolite humor, thematic elements, and mild action.

I Still Believe (Wonder Project)

A young Christian singer falls in love with a fellow college student, only to face a test of faith and love when she is diagnosed with cancer. It tells the true story of award-winning CCM artist Jeremy Camp and is one of several faith-based titles landing on Wonder Project this month. Others include I Can Only Imagine, Jesus Revolution, The Prince of Egypt, The Passion of the Christ, and The Jesus Music. Rated PG for thematic material.

<strong>Bad Guys 2</strong> (Netflix)

Bad Guys 2 (Netflix)

A group of villains-turned-good guys struggle to leave their criminal reputations behind when they are pulled into a heist led by an all-female criminal squad. It’s a hilarious sequel in a franchise that tells the story of five “bad” animals – a wolf, shark, piranha, snake, and tarantula – who are attempting to build honest lives and convince a skeptical world they’ve truly changed. Rated PG for action/mild violence, rude humor, and language. March 21.

Zootopia 2 (Home Video)

The city’s top bunny-fox police duo works to uncover the truth behind a history-changing conspiracy that threatens to upend everything Zootopia believes about its past. Along the way, they find their partnership – and their courage – tested like never before. It’s the sequel to the 2016 blockbuster that told the story of a city where animals – through the marvels of science – have learned to live together in harmony. Rated PG for action/violence and rude humor.

<strong>Solo Mio</strong> (Angel)

Solo Mio (Angel)

A man left at the altar in Rome decides to take his non-refundable honeymoon alone through Italy, where he joins other couples on a guided tour and unexpectedly finds friendship, healing, and – perhaps – a second chance at love. Solo Mio stars Kevin James and Jonathan Roumie (The Chosen) and was Angel Studios’ first venture into romantic comedy. Due to thematic elements and minor language, this one might be best for older children. Rated PG for some suggestive material, brief language, violence, and smoking.

House of David, Season 2 (Prime Video)

The story of King David continues in this excellent Wonder Project series, following his journey to the throne as he clashes with Saul and deepens his brother-like bond with Jonathan. The project has drawn comparisons to The Chosen for its cinematic quality, rich character development, and story depth. It was created by Jon Erwin, previously best known for his work on Jesus Revolution and I Can Only Imagine. March 27.

The American Revolution (PBS Passport)

The birth of the United States is explored in this engaging six-episode, 12-hour series by acclaimed filmmaker Ken Burns, who previously helmed landmark documentaries such as The Civil War and Baseball and is widely regarded as one of the masters of the genre. Everything that made his earlier projects so compelling is evident here: a focus on lesser-known individuals that brings the story down to earth, vivid explanations of pivotal moments, and a sweeping 40,000-foot view of the events so you never get lost. Yes, it’s been criticized in some conservative circles, but – overall – it’s magnificent. It’s a must-watch for America’s 250th birthday.
