Few can argue that kids and even adults are attracted to magic, magic and just something unusual that you will not find in real life. Even hiding under the burden of daily work, long-growing children will enjoy watching films or cartoons about dinosaurs and dragons. The latter are able to make imagination work, and are also easily perceived, in contrast to the read and told stories. If you make a choice between fabulous creatures, it is best to focus on dragons. They have a pleasant appearance, endowed with various supernatural capabilities (for example, fly and breathe fire). The plots of many films are based on ancient legends, which to this day do not leave the culture of many countries. It should be noted that cartoons about dragons have a reference to real events that happened in the past. It is thanks to this that an opportunity arises to acquaint viewers with the history of states in an interesting way.
In fact, the dragon is a large and powerful animal, next to which even the most formidable heroes will be powerless. For a long time there was a stereotype that these "friends of man" only want to bite someone or tear to pieces, as well as kidnap princesses and other heroes. The turning point after which the opinions of people about dragons changed significantly was the release of "Shrek", where these creatures in front of the eyes of the audience turn into sweet and kind friends.
For children from 14 years old, such cartoons as “The Age of Dragons”, “Spear of the Dragon”, “Dungeons of Dragons” will seem interesting.
"Dragon Hunters"
Not all cartoons about dragons are suitable for young children. Parents of those who are still studying in elementary school can invite them to watch the beautiful story "Dragon Hunters", created by a German studio. Unlike other tapes, there is no friendship between human beings and "monsters", but this is not the main thing. The picture will attract with its views, graphics and simply unusual images of dragons, which will be interesting to people of any age category. In the first part there are unusual plot twists - what made this story so popular. Thanks to the incredible success, the creators decided not to stop and release the second season.
Such cartoons about dragons, like this one, are not so simple: in a team of hunters who want to destroy their worst enemies and secure their lives, a traitor will surely come across. The decision to introduce such a character is designed to teach the child to distinguish between good and evil, correctly analyze situations and respond to them. Throughout the season, people continue to fight with terrible creatures, but after a while it becomes clear that the problem can not be solved by war. Therefore, a proposal is made to find a common solution in order to achieve mutual understanding and friendship with dragons.
"Dinosaur"
Cartoons about dinosaurs and dragons are unlikely to ever leave the familiar life of children. One of the favorite paintings of modern children is the Dinosaur. A vivid story about Aladar, whose mother was killed, will not leave anyone indifferent. Before hatching, the egg with the small dinosaur managed to visit different places, and even in the legs of wild predators. But in the end, he was born into the family of lemurs, where he was raised. For a long time, the protagonist did not even suspect that there was another life, among dinosaurs like him, so similar to him.
The climax occurs when a meteorite falls on the island where Aladar's friends live and he himself. This event turned the lives of all the monasteries upside down: most of the lemurs died, the house was destroyed. Heroes begin to wander, looking for a new place of residence. On the way, they first encounter bad and formidable velociraptors, and a little later - on a herd of non-predatory dinosaurs heading to the nesting place. In order to survive, friends have to go with him. However, there is one condition: in no case should you lag behind the herd, otherwise death is inevitable. Aladar had to endure, show his strength and courage in order to cope with all the misfortunes and, finally, find happiness.
"How to Train Your Dragon"
Cartoons about dragons have been supplanting many seemingly cult stories for several years in a row. And the leader among them was How to Train Your Dragon. A few years ago, the whole Internet talked about him. A feature that distinguishes from other no less interesting stories is the relationship between the main character and the dragon Bezzubik. Hiccup - a young guy - was the first to make friends with the most dangerous representative of the enemies of his village - Night Fury. Self-sacrifice and the ability to find a common language saved the guy from death and made it possible to get a best friend who would never leave in trouble.
The cartoon about the toothless toothless dragon, so beloved by children and adults, talks about the long-standing war between the Vikings and fairy-tale creatures who constantly tried to steal cattle. Such actions led to huge raids, the number of victims is hard to imagine. The plot occurs when the son of the leader of the tribe, having caught the dragon in a trap, cannot kill the animal and finds mutual understanding with him. Toothless is grateful to the young man and at the end of the cartoon he saves him from imminent death, thereby gaining the trust of the whole people. Now the island is inhabited by new friends and assistants to the Vikings - dragons, and the lives of these people will never be the same.
"How to Train Your Dragon 2"
Last year (2014), the long-awaited sequel to the cartoon "How to Train Your Dragon" was released, which received the same name. There is an opinion among viewers and film critics that the second part of the popular cartoon is not able to hit in the same way as the first. However, this story exceeded all expectations.
After Hiccup was able to save the island from death by making friends with dragons, in another country the villains gather an army of giant representatives in order to conquer the whole world. The second part is rich in amazing twists. For example, viewers will get acquainted with the mother of the protagonist, find out why she could not be with him on Oluha and how she began to live with a hundred dragons.
"Dragons and Horsemen of the Oluh"
The full-length parts became so successful that the creators hurried and released an animated series consisting of a couple of seasons. In the first part, Hiccup seeks recognition of his village, showing that friendship with the dragon will only lead to good results. The main point of the season is that the hero was instructed to find the den of untamed animals who do not want to be friends with people, but rather seek to kill them.
In the second season, an already peaceful city is shown with places arranged for dragons. And only small problems knock people out of the familiar environment, which Toothless and his rider have to fight against. It is also planned to release 3 and 4 seasons.
