DD soon to be 7 wants a cinema trip with friends on her birthday. I am happy to accommodate this, but being the control freak that I am find I am struggling with the logistics!
Cinema listings will not be published until the week before, but I need to send out invitations and commit (at least) to morning or afternoon. I can firm up times nearer the date. Do I take the risk that there will be something suitable for them to watch (i.e. a 'U' rated film) in the afternoon and opt for that, ergo avoiding the myriad sports activities people usually commit to on Saturday mornings, or should I force parents to bring their little lovelies to a morning screening as I know that there will at least be a 'Movies for Juniors' showing even if there is no 'big' release?
We will then take the dc to the restaurant next to the cinema for lunch/dinner after the film, with parents collecting their darlings from there.
Any thoughts? What time of day would you prefer to be child free for 4 hours or so?
I don't know why I am finding this so difficult!!
