I took my kiddos to Alice In Wonderland. My kiddos are 7, 4 and 2. My 7 and 4 y/o LOVED the 3-D my 2 y/o even wore glasses through most of the movie. Obviously every kid is different, but I say go for it!
My 4 year old LOVED IT!! He did wear the glasses the whole time, though it was his second 3D movie!
My son hated the glasses and kept taking them off. He also said he had a headache. They gave us the smaller glasses too but he still wouldn't keep them on, I didn't force the issue but I know for next time. My older boys all kept theirs on and loved every second of it (ages 8, 11, and 13). Now I just do 2-D with my 4 year old and leave the 3-D stuff for the bigger guys. We still get our Mommy-kiddo dates but the only 3-D is in real life. :) It is worth seeing it on the big screen though, there are some really cool scenes that just would not be the same sitting in your family room!!! Have fun.
I would do it again in a heartbeat! My family loved it and my sons looked so cute with those huge glasses on his small face. To prepare for that, you could go to Walmart or some place like that and get those special bands that they make to keep glasses on small faces; they connect to the glasses and wrap around their head to keep in place. Sit in the middle or towards the back but most importantly....Have fun!
Well… I called my local theatre and found out they only offer the adult size glasses. I knew if would be an issue for him to try to keep them on if he put his head back against the seat, but we went for it anyway. He had SUCH a good time. Today when I dropped him off at pre-school he was telling all his friends about training a dragon and Toothless. I think next time I will aim for an afternoon movie just to save a few extra dollars, but overall it was a wonderful time! Thanks for all the advice!
