What Parents Need to Know
About Doctor Dolittle (1967)
Parents need to know that this classic family tale is exceedingly G-rated -- for lively songs, fuzzy animals, dancing and cavorting. You can't go wrong. Children younger than 5 will appreciate the fun and silliness, but may be impatient with the slow first half. For older kids, this is nonstop wholesome entertainment that parents can feel good about.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about learning different languages (Dolittle knows 498), and use it as a jumping off point for encouraging language development in their own children. The film also makes a plea for humans to treat each other with civility and kindness. Families may want to discuss what civility means and how each family members encourages kindness every day.
