She doesn't watch tv at all. We waited until she was about 4 years old before she saw her first movie. And today, for the very first time, at 5 1/2 years old, we brought her to a movie at the theatre.
It was so fun surprising her. We walked up to the theatre and asked her where she was. She had no idea what the building even was. She saw a sign through the window, with a picture of popcorn on it, so she guessed that it was a popcorn store.
She was so surprised when she found out it was the movie theatre.
And she loved it. And I'm glad we waited until this age. Everything was so thrilling for her! From getting her very own popcorn tub & cup, to the fun folding seats, to the fun of watching the people come in...etc.
We went to see Horton Hears a Who (Dr. Seuss) and it was perfect.
The best part was having our little girl sit in between us, and after eating our popcorn, she held our hands (one on each side) for the entire movie.
Oh, and since Mark had planned this whole surprise for her, right before the movie started, holding our hands, she looked at him and said, "Daddy, you are the best daddy in the whole world!".
