Should I sit with them?

We would not put this on for a child under 5 and leave the room. Plan to sit with them at least until 8. After that, many families can watch with a grown-up nearby rather than on the couch. The notes above say what happens. You know your child. This is not medical advice.

Movie -- 2018 -- Netflix

Smallfoot

Migo is a yeti who loves the rules of his mountain village. When a plane crashes and he meets a human -- a 'smallfoot' -- nobody believes him. Banished, he teams up with Meechee and a fame-hungry TV host named Percy to prove both sides are real. Songs, slapstick falls, and a chase with dart guns.

A plane crashes through the cloud floor onto the yeti mountain. The pilot survives, terrified. Migo meets a human for the first time.

Theme. A crash starts the wonder as a disaster picture. Nobody dies; the sound and smash still hit.

What to say. You might say: 'A plane comes through the clouds and crashes. The pilot is scared but fine. We can jump to when Migo talks about it.'
