Easter is coming soon. This holiday is not only a mass of cleaning, cooking and table talk, but also family time spent in front of the TV. After all, what better way to relax after a big breakfast than to sit on the couch and turn on some movie or TV series to watch with your loved ones? So we have for you a list of the most interesting Easter offerings on Disney+, which include not only movies, but also Easter-themed episodes from beloved series.

Easter movies on Disney+

Let's start with the films for Easter, among which the ones we have known since childhood are sure to stand out. These, despite the fact that they are getting old and have been watched by us for several or even a dozen times, are still eagerly turned on and watched, so they couldn’t be missing here.

Bambi

Although there are no Easter themes in the film, the mere fact that the action takes place mainly in spring is fitting for the period. So does the pastel colors of this production and the presence of the audience's favorite, Thumper the rabbit. So don't be afraid of this 1942 animated film, which may be one of the sadder ones in Disney's repertoire, but is still a beautiful story of a young deer who learns how to be a leader of forest animals. Bambi can therefore be considered one of the must-see films for Easter, especially since it's the perfect movie for the whole family.

Ice Age: The Great Egg-Scapade

Ice Age: The Great Egg-Scapade is a short movie, but it is still worth paying attention to. Especially since it's a typical Easter production with a storyline centered on this holiday and the traditions associated with it. In this film, the beloved sloth Sid is tasked with guarding some eggs. Unfortunately, the eggs in his care are stolen, which makes him and his friends have to start a big egg hunt.

Easter episodes of TV series on Disney+

But it's not just movies. Sometimes one feels like returning to themed episodes of beloved TV series, and there is no shortage of Easter episodes in the repertoire of Disney+ productions. Below you will find some interesting ones that you may want to return to.

Bluey – Easter (S02E52)

A beloved cartoon of many kids. More than once and more than twice parents have had to watch it with them, and who knows, maybe they also got caught up in the adventures of the dog family? Certainly, on the occasion of this holiday, it is worth remembering the episode in which Bingo is convinced that the Easter Bunny has forgotten them just like last year. Bluey, however, comes across clues that lead them on a search for Easter eggs.

The Simpsons – Simpsons Bible Stories (S10E18)

Now something for older viewers. The first Easter episode of The Simpsons, which we didn't get until season 10. But it was worth the wait, because it's a good one. During an impossibly hot Easter, when the Simpsons, of course, wandered into the church, no one cares what Reverend Lovejoy has to say. The episode is a juxtaposition of the dreams of the entire family, who fell asleep after Homer earlier dropped a chocolate Easter bunny into the donation tray. Reverend Lovejoy stated is a wicked idol, and instructed Homer to read the Bible all over again.
