I think Daddy Day Care is a great movie that accurately depicts preschoolers’ behaviors and emotions.
It has a great story line that showed how important it is to allow kids to be kids, instead of forcing them
to be like adults. It is so much more important for kids to engage in play than a strict education. This
movie depicted different some obstacles preschool kids must overcome such as potty-training issues and
behavioral problems, and showed how support and encouragement are the most helpful. The movie had
a meaningful story line with Charlie realizing how much more important his relationship with his son,
Ben, is than working a meaningless job.
