He really enjoyed the whole thing, except for the (way too long) sequence of opening previews. At one point he stood up in his seat, looked back at the projection booth and said "Movie! We want the movie!" :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1545194 Fri, 04 Apr 2014 05:07:06 +0000 SAHM0811 1545194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kids weren't totally ready at 2 yo, but at 2.5 yo, they did great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1544562 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 20:21:41 +0000 chopsuey 1544562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We took her to see Frozen at 2 years 9 months old! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1544560 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 20:20:49 +0000 Mrsbells 1544560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: that sounds promising..I plan to take head phones for her so it won't be too loud. If she does get upset we will just leave, no big deal </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1544554 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 20:19:17 +0000 rachiecakes 1544554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought J to the Lego Movie (he's 2) and I really doubted he would sit through it. The ticket taker even warned me that it was 2 hours and I could get my money back if I had to leave.<br /> He was GREAT! And he's still talking about it to this day.<br /> It was a day show, filled with little (loud) kids. We had a lot of fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1544546 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 20:17:24 +0000 Mrsbells 1544546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@luckypenny: thanks, I am not taking her into a regular showing, it is a special advanced screening for employees at DH's job, other employees are inviting their partners and kids too </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1535630 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 21:55:16 +0000 luckypenny 1535630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our theater has "family showings" where they keep lights dim but brighter than normal, not as loud and no previews. Maybe you can call around and see if yours offers something similar? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1535584 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 21:13:44 +0000 Mrsbells 1535584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@plantains: thanks! Yeah I have the same concerns.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1534681 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 13:46:59 +0000 plantains 1534681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think 2 is too young. The movie might be too long, too loud, it could be too dark etc etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-lo-start-going-to-the-movie-theater#post-1534680 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 13:46:10 +0000 Mrsbells 1534680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My Daughter turns two next Month and i am thinking of taking her to see an animated movie in a few weeks. Is that too young? </p>
