Continuity mistake: When Papa is showing Buddy the sled at the beginning of the film, we see the Clausometer (the middle odometer), and the indicator is pointing to the left at around 15 (9pm position). As Papa gets in, the indicator is now pointing at around 35-40 (10pm position). Later in the scene, when it shows a close-up of the meter, it is back to 15, and then the last shot of it is 35-40 on the meter. The changes are instantaneous between shots, and there is not enough time for them to move that much.

Continuity mistake: When Emily is eating spaghetti, you can see she is only using a fork and there is a knife next to the plate. In the next shot the knife is now on the plate despite the fact she only uses the fork to eat throughout the scene (also there is no sauce on the knife so very doubtful she used it to help her eat the spaghetti). In the following shot of her the knife is back by the side of her plate again. (00:44:55)
