Spend the Day at the Movies, With Your Baby

It’s difficult to find time for yourself, much less for you and your partner, once you have a baby. One fun activity you can do with a young baby is go to the movies.
Little ones tend to sleep through a lot of the show. If she gets fussy, cuddle her, nurse her, give her a bottle, or give her a pacifier. If you need to, it’s easy to duck out of the theater in hurry. Just be sure to sit near the entrance.
Ask your local theater if they have discounts for seeing more than one movie in one evening, or buy tickets for 3 or 4 movies and have a movie night. Just don’t forget to pack extra diapers and a changing pad.
What fun things have you done for yourself, even with your baby at your side?

Guess what? Our local movie theater actually offers parents-babies movie afternoons once a month. Only babies under 6 months are allowed (no crawlers and toddlers) and breastfeeding is encouraged. I`ve never been there myself since my twins were already mobile when we moved here. However, friends have tried it and said it`s fun.
