I took DD to see Mamma Mia for her 7th birthday. She absolutely adored it!

orangina · 01/05/2013 13:36

Matilda is utterly brilliant. You might try Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (think it is opening in May)?

BadRoly · 01/05/2013 13:37

Ah read back properly now Blush

My dd2 loves the film Mamma Mia and we did take her to see it before we moved so she would have been 3, dc1&2 would have been 6 and 8. They seemed to enjoy it from memory.

Wizard of oz - both DD and I loved it!

Humm, I've taken my two to a few things, and actually I'd be really tempted to wait for Matilda - it's genuinely outstanding...

I wonder if they are having the tent in Kensington gardens - that was quite a nice experience, esp if you get a warm day.

Stomp's quite clever... ?

Would those of you who have seen Matilda think it is suitable for a nearly 6 yr old (quite sensible)? I think dd1 (8) would love it, but not so sure about dd2....?

BadRoly · 01/05/2013 14:26

Depends on the child I think - dd2 (who saw Mamma Mia) can't sit still through a film at the cinema so I wouldn't take her yet! She is 6 1/2! It is a bit of an emotional roller coaster (I thought) but I don't think it's too scary or grown up.
