Educational
1/5

Some of the songs have phrases that have become mainstream lore, such as "A spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down."

Message
4/5

Themes include empathy and gratitude. Kindness to all people, whether rich or poor, is advocated. Also, the value of play, fun, and hard work is underscored by Poppins, as is the dignity and importance of children. A minor quibble: The fight for women's right to vote is shown in a somewhat frivolous light.

Role model
4/5

Mary Poppins is mysterious, firm, kind, and caring. She's the very picture of an independent woman. She demonstrates compassion, communication skills, and integrity. Even without her magical ways, she's the perfect nanny. Though Mr. Banks begins as an aloof father, he sees the error of his ways and engages with his children in the end.

Violence
0/5

One of the neighbors pretends to be in battle and fires cannons from his rooftop -- it's loud and jolting, but no one gets hurt.

Sex
1/5

A little flirting and hand-holding between Bert and Mary Poppins.

Drugs
2/5

Father drinks what looks like brandy. Minor characters smoke cigars.
