Entertainment doesn't come cheap! Before you go and spend big bucks on tickets for that newly released cartoon movie that hit theaters, considering taking the little ones to one of these free shows at the theater. There's nothing worst than spending tons of money for a newly released movie at the theater and having to leave in the middle of the show because the little one is scared of the dark, the movie is too loud, or they just can't sit still and becomes embarrassingly fussy.

I always look forward to free movie matinées as something to do on weekends when the weather is yucky, and we NEED to get out of this house!

As a note, these kids film fests take place several time a year and they are usually free or just a $1, so keep an eye out at your local theaters during schools breaks.
