She is 2.5. </p> <p>We love watching movies together as a family! She’s seen the entire Harry Potter series lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827894 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 11:43:17 +0000 Hypatia 2827894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Last Unicorn. She still loves it. </p> <p>She's 4.5 and hasn't been to the movie theater. I doubt she'll go for another few years. There honestly aren't many modern movies that I feel like exposing her to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827829 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 08:28:57 +0000 snowjewelz 2827829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: K likes the crab, haha. But she gets scared even of the part where she goes into the cave in the beginning... </p> <p>I just watched Coco myself last night, SO cute! I don't know how mine would react to the skeletons tho, and talking about poisoning people! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827815 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 07:49:23 +0000 alphagam84 2827815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Moana at home for our daughter.

He did great sitting through the whole thing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827652 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 11:12:58 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2827652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: we went through that stage for awhile with my five yo. We thought it was strange because they were kid movies but she did eventually get past it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827650 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 11:11:57 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2827650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None of our kids have seen one in a theater. My 5 year old only began to watch movies recently, because of end of the year stuff at school. By the time she was old enough we already had my other child(ren) and it's just not something I think either of us would enjoy enough to make the effort to just take her. My 2 year old has seen a couple at home. </p> <p>Five year old's first movie was Frozen, two year old's was Moana. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827645 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 11:05:59 +0000 KT326 2827645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't remember what DS1's first movie at home was... I think it was Frozen. The first movie in the theater was Finding Dory. </p> <p>DS2 is only 18 months and hasn't really watched movies. The only thing he will watch on tv is baseball! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827638 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 10:42:57 +0000 Alba4 2827638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home, Winnie the Pooh.<br /> In the theater, Sing.</p> <p>DS2 watches everything his older brother watches, so maybe his first movie was Moana? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827637 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 10:41:52 +0000 SweetiePie 2827637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home, Curious George.<br /> At a theater, Cars 3. Was that last summer? I already can’t remember. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827627 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 10:28:06 +0000 pachamama 2827627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AnnabelleG: My son "watched" Moana for the first time when he was about 27 months. By watched, I mean he glanced at the screen for like 4 minutes total. He's not a quiet, reliable consumer of media unless it's Blippi's "Lawn Mowing" episode. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827612 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:56:46 +0000 DesertDreams88 2827612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home, finding dory and cars.<br /> In the movie theater, it was smurfs, but that wasn't intentional... a local movie chain does "summer movies" for kids once a week re-playing recent favorites for $1 each at 9am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827600 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:43:20 +0000 Jennibenni 2827600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home our almost 3 year old hasn’t yet been able to sit through a movie. We’ve tried a couple but he just doesn’t have the interest. Not sure if a theater would be different since here are no distractions but I’m not planning on trying any time soon given the cost. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827596 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:39:20 +0000 snowjewelz 2827596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 is 3.5 and she recently stopped wanting to watch movies because all of them seem to have scary parts :bummed: </p> <p>She was watching Trolls, Frozen, Moana &amp; Secret Life of Pets. Suddenly she wants nothing to do with movies! And all of these we watched at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827593 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:32:38 +0000 Iced Tea 2827593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My three year old has been enjoying movies at home for about a year. She hasn't been to the theater, but I think she could sit through one now, as long as it didn't have scary parts. </p> <p>Tame movies she likes: My Neighbor Totoro, Sing, Storks<br /> Slightly scary: Finding Dory, Zootopia, Moana, Boss Baby, Frozen<br /> TOO scary: Ferdinand (death of parent and slaughterhouse, why did no one tell me?!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827589 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:24:55 +0000 2PeasinaPod 2827589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home, the original Cars movie was his first. In the theater, Despicable Me 3. He LOVED it. </p> <p>LO2 has yet to see a movie in the theater, and typical second child...I have no idea what his first movie was. I guess because big brother has seen a bunch, and he's been around when those were on that we didn't make it a huge deal with the second. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827586 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:19:13 +0000 youboots 2827586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home we did a steady rotation of Frozen &amp; Moana before adding to our collection.</p> <p>Next month we will take her to her first movie-Hotel Transylvania 3 because we all enjoy the series. She will be almost 3 1/2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827576 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 08:48:13 +0000 lindseykaye 2827576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't remember her first movie really because we've been big into movies for a long time. I know when she was young (2-2.5) she was very into Cinderella (the original old one), the Care Bears movie (again, 80's one), and some other classic Disney like Alice in Wonderland and also Aladdin. </p> <p>Her first movie in the theaters was Finding Dory, and since then we've taken her to see Moana. and the live action Beauty and the Beast at increasing ages. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827574 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 08:31:39 +0000 josina 2827574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First movie-theatre movie was CoCo which is such a cute movie, he was just over 3 and did great.</p> <p>I think his first favorite movie was Brave, he was obsessed with the bear, he loves 'scary' movies.<br /> Current favs: A Pet's Life, Zootopia, and Alice in Wonderland. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827568 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 08:02:46 +0000 lamariniere 2827568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mary Poppins. We still haven’t taken them to the movie theater because my older LO is still very sensitive to movies and freaks out pretty easily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827567 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 08:01:13 +0000 MamaCate 2827567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: we are planning to do the same this weekend for our almost 3 year old. He has watched the first movie at home repeatedly with older sister, and we are planning on both adults and both kids so that if he can’t sit through it someone can stay with each kid. He can sit through a movie at home so I am hoping the novelty of the setting plus the familiarity of the characters will help!</p> <p>My 6 y/o went to a free screening of wizard of oz at 2.5. She liked it but didn’t really understand it. I did a lot of whispered explaining. So I am anticipating similar this time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827566 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 08:01:11 +0000 krispi 2827566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My nearly 3 year old hasn't been to the theater yet. I think she's almost to the point where she'd sit through a movie.</p> <p>I think her first movie at home was the Beauty and the Beast cartoon. She currently also loves Moana, Sing, Frozen, and I think Trolls is her favorite this week. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827565 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 08:00:41 +0000 skinnycow 2827565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven't taken her to a movie theater yet. </p> <p>Her first movie at home was either Frozen or Moana... I can't remember. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827563 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 07:44:35 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2827563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven’t gone to the movie theatre yet. LO has seen a couple animated movies. His favorite though is Ice Age and he calls it Baby Daddy lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827558 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 07:23:56 +0000 Mrs. Carrot 2827558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Her first movie theater movie was Moana. She was 3.5. At home, it was probably Frozen, though I don't recall at this point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827557 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 06:51:37 +0000 dolphin 2827557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home - Frozen<br /> At theater - Finding Dory </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827555 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 04:50:05 +0000 ElbieKay 2827555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home, 2.5, because he was sick and basically a pathetic lump. I showed him Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (original Gene Wilder version of course) and Mary Poppins.</p> <p>In the theater? I don't remember but now at four he has been to movies a number of times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/childs-first-movie#post-2827554 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 04:30:43 +0000 erinbaderin 2827554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Funny timing - I just bought tickets to the Incredibles 2 for this coming weekend, which is going to be B’s first movie in a theatre, and I’m having second thoughts - does he have the attention span to sit through it?</p> <p>I’m pretty sure both their first movies at home were Frozen. </p>
