Are you old enough to go to the movies?

Last Sunday, we were at home when with the television on and as always nobody was paying attention to him, except for the elder who looks like a television analyst and not even two frames are lost. Well, those were when the announcement of a movie came out, those of "coming soon in theaters."

-Let's go to the cinema? asked the elder then, who at 3 and a half years is a victim of media advertising.

His aunt who is always in Quito told him that if he wanted one day they could go to the movies.

  • What a day?
  • Whenever you want.
  • This afternoon! (One who has not learned that her nephew takes everything literally) In the end, the thing is that "one day ... we will go to the cinema".

    The fact is that I had been thinking for a while If I was old enough to go to the movies

General tests

I know a couple of my son's friends who have already been to the movies once in a while, in fact some are already assiduous. With most the process was the same. Before going to the movies and spending a paste, which as things stand is to be appreciated, the first thing was to do a general rehearsal at home. How?

It puts a children's DVD. NOTICE: the results can be very different if we put the last James Bond movie with Lightning McQueen. Popcorn and drinks are prepared, blinds are lowered and everyone chooses a place on the living room sofa. We give to play and we observe.

Analysis of results

Essay it will be considered good If the following points are met:

1 - The child does not blink during the exposure of the film. 2 - The child is not in automat mode but has not risen from his place. 3 - The child has risen less than 3 times. 4 - The child has not drunk our coke. 5 - The child has remained with the feet still at least 80% of the projection.

The essay could also be considered good, although it already depends on the interpretation of each one, in the following cases.

6 - The child ends up asleep. 7 - The child ends up asleep on top of an adult. 8 - The child ends up so full of popcorn (take note and do not ask for the "MEGA-FAMILIAR" pack the day we go to the cinema). 9 - The child has not been afraid.

What can go wrong

Taking into account the rules that govern any new activity with an infant, everything could go wrong, although if the test has been positive I would say that there is a good chance that we will have to get the membership card from the cinema.

What is your opinion, Is your child old enough to go to the movies? At what age did you go to the movies with your son for the first time? How was the experience?
