Frozen': Why kids can't 'Let It Go' 

visited 13th November 2017.

Yalda Uhls: One of the things that really struck me, and I think struck little children, is that there is a really strong intergenerational, family-themed message here. Despite the sisters Anna and Elsa being separated for so long, the story is ultimately about the bond between the two of them'It is the highest-grossing animated film of all time and one of Disney's top franchises. It was the most downloaded movie from Apple in 2014, and kids everywhere are still singing the movie's anthem, "Let It Go."'
'Kia-Keating: My 4-year-old came home and learned the song before we had even seen the movie.
One of the lines she and all her friends connected to was "Be the good girl that you always have to be."
'And when they sing it, they wag their fingers like they do in the movie.
I think it looks a lot like something they see and hear from parents -- be a good girl or boy, don't do this or that -- so part of it is copying what they frequently hear.'

'But when I asked my daughter what she thought the song was about, she said it was about "Elsa being happy and free, and nobody bothering her."
That's a message that everyone wants: to be happy and free.'
