I’ve been attending the Chicago International Children’s Film Festival for a few years now and can honestly say it’s a fantastic couple of weeks of movies for kids and adults.

The movies are made up of both shorts and full-length and target age groups from two to sixteen. I bought some very reasonable tickets for shows this Saturday and Sunday priced at $6 for kids and $8 for adults.

Check the schedule for a theatre near you. They’re even showing movies at the Wilmette Theatre this year. So if you don’t own a kid, make sure you borrow one!
