Cinema with a Toddler

This weekend we went to see Paddington at the cinema. This was exciting for two reasons: everyone has been raving about the movie since it was released but also this was the very first time Little G has been to the cinema!

I wanted her to have the full cinema experience so we bought pick ‘n’ mix, popcorn and fizzy drinks! She was so happy and it was lovely having mummy daughter time, just the two of us. Since Baby L has been born she has had to share me every single day, I cannot remember the last time we did anything just us.

We settled into our seats and the adverts began, I managed to sneak this photo of her, totally wide eyed at the huge screen (and high on pick ‘n’ mix!).

She loved the movie, as did I. The best bit was during the final scenes, when Paddington is on the roof, a little boy shouted ‘don’t let him die!’ to which the whole audience gave an ‘aaaaahhhhh’. Toddlers are cute when they want to be.

I will definitely be taking her to the cinema again!
