There are a number of Disney films with Don Knotts as I recall.

Some warnings:
Fantasia has some fairly scary sections (Night on Bare Mountain, e.g.)--you'll want to be there to reassure them.

Old Yeller has a very sad ending (the dog dies). Be aware of that.

I don't think anyone mentioned it, but I would not recommend "A Dog of Flanders"--in the original version both the boy and dog die at the foot of the altar in the cathedral. I think the later version made a happier ending, however.

Just some things to consider.

I could recommend "The Parent Trap" with Hayley Mills playing twins--it is very funny, but maybe better for slightly older kids.

Princess Bride, Goonies, and Sandlot are good options to keep in mind for when they're a few years older. (Late elementary/early middle school.)
