I went to an afternoon movie, MR POPPER'S PENGUIN with a 9 year old and an 11 year old. I laughed and laughed but they did not so much.

I think Jim Carry may have been a little too sophisticated for them. He was perfect for me.

the 11 year old boy had recently showed me how he could play Beethoven's 9th symphony , 4th movement, on his recorder by blowing it through his nose. I think he is going to be embarrassed about this feat in a couple of years.
