At The Movies With The Kids

The day was absolutely freezing, first week of the school holidays. So what do you usually do, go to the cinema.

Myself, my mother and my daughter took all four children (ages 4-10) to see 'HOP'. Appropriate as easter is only two weeks away. Would not have said it was the best kids movie I have ever seen, but not bad.
It started slow and I feel it lost most of the audience about half hour into it.
Children all through the cinema were starting to fidget and start talking amongst themselves, not a good sign.

The kids wanted to sit on their own, so they sat in front of us eating popcorn, as you do at the movies, best part of it.
No matter how many times you ask before the movie starts "Do you need to go to the toilet?" sure enough, half way through they need to go.

Children get on very well, being cousins. The two older boys just talk none stop and the two little girls, well I can see them being great mates when in their teens, both looking out for one another. One is a little shy, where as the other is right out there, no shyness in her at all. She is four and told her mother to stay home, she wasn't allowed to come to the cinema. Very independent.

A great day had by all. Pity it was so cold.
