From First-Timers to Future Movie Fans—Here's How to Prepare
Before the Movie:
🎬 Pick the Right Movie – Choose a family-friendly film with bright colors, fun characters, and a simple storyline to keep them engaged.
⏰ Go at the Right Time – Opt for a matinee or an early show when crowds are smaller, and kids are more alert.
💡 Prep Them for the Experience – Explain what to expect, from the big screen and loud sounds to sitting in a dark theatre.
🎟 Reserve Your Seats – If your theatre offers reserved seating, pick an aisle seat for easy exits if needed.
At the Theatre:
🍿 Snacks Are Key – Leave enough time to grab their favorite movie snacks from the snack bar before the movie. A kid's combo is the perfect option for a kid-sized popcorn, drink, and fruit snacks.
🔇 Manage Expectations – Remind them about movie manners like whispering and staying in their seat, but be patient if they need a break.
🧸 Bring Comfort Items – A small blanket, stuffed toy, or noise-reducing headphones can help them feel secure.
During & After the Movie:
🚶♂️ Take a Break if Needed – If they get restless, a quick trip to the lobby can help reset their focus.
📸 Capture the Moment – Take a fun photo with their "My First Movie Experience" ticket to remember the day! Don't forget to tag your local R/C Theatres if you post on social :)
💬 Talk About It – After the movie, ask what they liked best to make the experience even more fun.
