Great Escape Theaters are sponsoring their 2010 Summer Children's Film Festival! If you live in Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Illinois, West Virginia, Montana, Georgia, or Nebraska, you might have a participating location in your area. Check out Great Escape's participating locations at their website, to see if you can take advantage of this fun kids' festival!

The KIDS First Film Festival invites you to attend a pair of free film screenings September 11th and 12th in Santa Rosa, California.

The Facebook page for the event is a little vague, as festival pages often are, but there is contact information available so if you're interested in contacting the festival organizers for more information, it doesn't look difficult.

Keeping the kids entertained during the summer can be a very trying experience. With prices going up and up, taking them to the movies is becoming an expensive proposition. What if I told you that you could take your kids to see family friendly movies every week for free?

Just about everyone knows about YouTube, but many don't know you can watch full length movies on there. In addition to all the short clips and home videos people post, there are actually quite a few full-length movies you can watch online for free.

If you're into free movies and DVDs, you need to head directly to Facebook, and find the KIDS First Film Festival Official Site. Like them, watch them, love them. They give free stuff away with an amazing regularity, and it's all great stuff that your children will love.

By way of example, they're promoting tons of free screenings of “The Velveteen Rabbit” in November.

Lionsgate Films has a youtube channel. That’s not really surprising, I know – most studios do, and they’re usually used as a place to display trailers and previews. Lionsgate has on their site over a hundred movies – actual, full-length movies.

Do you live near Manhattan's upper west side? Do you want to see a free movie? If you answered both those questions with a big “Yes!” then you'll want to check this out!

If you plan on being in SoCal over the weekend, check this one out: Old Pasadena is having their Cultural Dance Festival Sunday, October 10th from 1 – 6pm. Check out the website, but definitely plan on attending if you’re in the area.

Just six miles south of downtown San Diego, the 316 acre Chula Vista Nature Center awaits you and your family! Come see interactive wildife exhibits, visit with raptors and owls, and explore the aquariums!
