On Sunday, October 20th, our Family Fall Fun Day festivities kick off with My First Movies, a specially curated short film program designed to captivate our youngest viewers – ages 2-5.
Featuring a delightful lineup of gentle, animated films, this program introduces toddlers to the magic of storytelling through cinema in a way that’s tailored to their developmental needs. The space is designed to accommodate their curiosity, with room to wiggle and explore, while the dim (but not dark) lighting ensures a comfortable environment for first-time moviegoers.
Adding to the excitement, the Old Town School of Folk Music’s Wiggleworms® will perform live, encouraging children to clap, dance, and sing along with familiar tunes. This interactive performance creates a joyful connection between music and film, sparking moments of shared laughter and delight between caregivers and their little ones.
With its thoughtful combination of film, live music, and a safe, inviting atmosphere, My First Movies offers families a chance to bond over sweet, heartwarming stories. It’s a perfect opportunity to nurture a love of cinema in young children while fostering joyful, memorable experiences.
FAMILY FALL FUN DAY
This shorts program screens as a part of our Family Fall Fun Day, a celebration of films and fall-themed family activities curated by the Chicago International Children’s Film Festival.
