Family Films in London

We all love going to the cinema - a big screen, popcorn and high back seats.

There are many venues which offer a range of family films

The Science Museum IMAX
www.sciencemuseum.org.uk offer a fantastic array of films in 3D (yes, you get to wear those special glasses!) If you plan to be a regular, it may be worth becoming a member as a family ticket for 2 adults and 2 kids costs just £65.

The Barbican
www.barbican.org.uk has a family film club and show films which you won't find at your local multiplex. Films cost from just £2.50 when you are a member.

There are a number of cinemas which have special screenings for parents with babies; you will have to decide if that will be relaxing - your angelic babe may sleep through but will all the others? Anyway, if you're up for it, check out for details about lots of cinemas in London including the Ritzy in Brixton which even offers special screenings for children with autism. The Greenwich Picture House has a Saturday morning children's film club so does and The Stratford Picture House
