The Seventies are memorable in the minds of today as a time of “free love” and Disco.
With many Wars being fought around the world (including Vietnam!) and Watergate, it was a time of true conflict and the youth of the time just wanted to “make love, not war” in many rebellious acts known around the globe!
But, fighting and hippies aren’t all the 70s were about! Equality was a huge part of the 70s from Youth Suffrage (lowering the voting age from 21 to 18) to Civil Rights, to Feminism.
However, even with all the politics and conflict going in around the world, the movie makers of the time were busy cranking out make-believe for our youth!
The following list of Kids Movies of the 1970s are some of the most popular and memorable children’s movies of the decade and make a perfect movie library for you and your kids!
