What Parents Need to Know
About Hip Hop Kidz: It's a Beautiful Thing
Parents need to know that this tale of young hip hop singers/dancers is quite tame. One main character lies repeatedly to her father and there's some kissing between two young characters. Positive messages include pulling together as a team, dedication to artistry, and "it doesn't matter what we wear on the outside, but how good we dance, and who we are, and how we feel on the inside." Tweens who focus on the dancing and singing and not the lackluster story will enjoy this movie the most.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about how the kids dealt with each setback they faced, and how they pulled together as a team to achieve their dream of making a music video. Why did Allison feel like she needed to lie to her father? Instead of lying, how could Allison have convinced her father that the Hip Hop Kidz is a positive influence, and that hip hop isn't all about thugs and drugs?
