How Guided Growth Works

  • Step 1: Begin with Guided Materials

    Start with Guided Growth materials designed to support meaningful conversation — whether that’s a short guided moment or a full activity book experience.

  • Step 2: Watch Something Meaningful

    Watch family-friendly media together. Shared viewing creates natural moments that open the door to reflection, connection, and discussion.

    Guided Growth resources are designed to work alongside films you already have access to.

  • Step 3: Reflect, Talk and Grow

    Use the guided prompts and activities to talk through emotions, choices, and meaningful moments — at your own pace and in your own way.

  • Step 4: Apply Lessons to Everyday Life

    Connect story themes to real-life situations through empathy, communication, and thoughtful conversation — long after the screen is off.

Guidance Lives Here

Guided Growth was created by the family behind Feature Films for Families, a collection of trusted, values-driven films watched by generations. That legacy shaped our belief that entertainment matters — and that the conversations after the story often matter most.

Guided Growth was designed to help parents and educators move beyond passive viewing by offering simple guidance that supports reflection, empathy, and meaningful dialogue — without pressure, scripts, or “right” answers.

Guided Moments That Invite Conversation

Guided Growth experiences are designed to gently support conversation, reflection, and connection — meeting families, classrooms, and groups exactly where they are.

Experiences may include short guided moments or full activity book experiences.
