I’ve said it before, Charlie Brown is the soundtrack to all holidays through my childhood. Though there are a few holiday’s that might not have gotten the Peanuts treatment, Arbor Day is not among them. It’s Arbor Day, Charlie Brown premiered in 1976 as the 15th Peanuts special premiering on prime time (Wiki). And so, this Arbor Day, we might plant a tree, we will beg all our baby trees to grow, and we will watch It’s Arbor Day, Charlie Brown.

And, for thematic watching, we will include some woods-are-alive, the-spirit-of-the-woods-is-going-to-kill-you movies:

  • The Woods (2006) – is well loved in our house and perfect for Arbor day.
  • The Guardian (1990) – shows serious promise!
