Kevin makes a joke saying they are "for the kids" referring to his own children. Obviously he doesn't have children, but his purchases and actions make him seem like a grown-up. The night before, when Kevin's family is getting ready and they order pizza, there are two things wrong.

At the top of the stairs, the tool chest wheels are all facing sideways. Before it falls, all the wheels including the fixed wheels are facing forward. When Marv slides into the shelves holding the paint cans, he raises both arms and completely covers his face to protect himself from the failing paint cans.
Every Art The Clown Movie Ranked Worst To Best
As he is walking back home, the shopping bags he is carrying end up breaking and all the items fall off. Surprisingly, there is no Tide detergent among the things that fall out. There are two errors regarding the plane that the McCallisters board from Chicago to Paris. Just a short while later, it appears to be dark outside the window.

When Harry and Marv are hit by the pipe after the paint cans miss them, the ropes are shown attached to the banister to the right of the stairs. A qualified police officer wouldn't ignore the fact that parents are treating the incident as a laughing matter. This would give the police the assumption the minor has neglectful parents.
Harry's Feathers Disappear
There is no way they could swing straight down the stairs from where they are attached. When Kate calls the police from France, the woman answers the phone "Village police," but when the officer goes to the McCallister home, he clearly has a City of Chicago flag on the right shoulder of his jacket. It takes about seven or eight hours to fly from Chicago to Paris, and Paris time is seven hours ahead of Chicago time.
When Kevin goes to the front desk to check in, the desk clerk takes Peter's credit card. By regular standards, the clerk should have asked for some form of ID, or in this case, given the fact Kevin is a minor, she should've called the police instead. In the original Home Alone, when Harry burned his palm on the red-hot doorknob, he grabbed the doorknob with his hand sideways, as if he were shaking hands with someone. In the scene when Harry and Marv meet Kevin on the street in NYC, Harry shows Kevin his hand, and the 'M' scar is positioned vertically. In O'Hare Airport, the wrong Peter McCallister is seen purchasing at a kiosk with March 1992 issues of "Cosmopolitan", "Good Housekeeping", "Glamour", and "Vogue" magazines visible.
Kevin's Clothes Dry Up Magically
When Kevin plays the video when the guy comes to deliver the pizza, the guy on the video says "Hey. I'm gonna give you to the count of ten." When Kevin first saw the movie, the word "Hey" was never spoken. The line immediately before "I'm gonna give you to the count of ten" was "I'll tell you what I'm gonna give you, Snakes". Although not explicitly mentioned, it could be a connecting flight which departs the Europe from another airport. In this case, flying a short or medium range aircraft to reach a hub airport would be plausible. When Marley enters the store, his right boot swaps from soaking wet to dry between shots. That would explain it only if the light came on when Kevin "activated" it.
Since it's the holiday season again, let's examine some of the continuity errors that were present in the movie. Alex's pet rat is named Doris, but from what's obvious from a number of shots, the rat used is male. Calls initiated by police or other emergency services show on caller ID as a standard seven-digit phone number, not 911. In the shot before a criminal tries to cut the plastic yarn the clips were folded down. Later in the shot where the criminal gets out his pocket knife the clips are folded up. When Alex is playing around with Mrs Hess's TV, Alex is pointing the remote at the TV through an open curtained window.
When Kevin walks into Buzz's room looking for his family after being left alone, on the bottom right of the frame you can see a crew member's leg. When Marv grabs Kevin by the leg as Kevin attempts to run up the stairs and into the attic. Kevin puts Buzz's tarantula on Marv's face in order to force Marv to let go of his leg. Kevin was carrying Buzz's rifle on his back and it hadn't occurred to him to whack Marv with it which could had knocked out Marv or hit him in the arm, which the pain would had forced Marv to let go. The stained glass window in the church is different in the interior and exterior shots.

But when Mrs Hess steps into the room to look at the TV you can see the curtains are clearly closed. When Alice and Jernigan enter the bedroom, Alice steps on a pump, inflating a beach ball under a toy monkey. Remember that Kevin didn't give his name, nor did the police ever see him.
During the remote control car chase the bad guys' minivan drives directly over it at one point. When Mrs. McCallister receives the phone call about the police finding Kevin, as soon as she answers the phone, notice the white shirt behind her on the bed. When she tells the family they found him, the camera goes back to her and the shirt is in a totally different position. When Kevin jumps off the hotel loading dock, Harry has his hands up. This displays the 'M' burnt into Harry's palm in the first movie.
Harry and Marv were career criminals, who expect to spend some time in jail or prison. Considering how they were caught and the police being able to link them to burglaries where the water was left running, it would be likely that they pleaded guilty in exchange for a shorter sentence. When the robbers are in Duncan's Toy Chest at midnight, Kevin sets up his board on the bucket outside the window. He then knocks on the window, takes the robber's picture, then runs back away and pulls a rock out of his pocket to throw through it. But he wouldn't have been able to run back that far without jumping over the bucket and board, and he did not jump or avoid any obstacles.
When Kevin lands in the treehouse, he's at the back with his feet through the wall. Given where the rope is tied to the tree, he would have hit into the tree or the door frame of the treehouse, not at the back wall. After the family leaves Kevin behind, he goes to a nearby supermarket, where he buys a couple of essentials.
