Kiddo got ready for school so quickly and thoroughly this morning so I asked her what she would like to do with all the spare time before we had to leave. I figured she might ask to look at animals (Nat Geo Kids) on my phone or the iPad. Or maybe she would ask to watch PBS kids or a few episodes of Bluey. Instead she immediately said, “can we see if Charlie gets a Golden Ticket???”
Heck yes. 🙌🏻
@MotherDucker No, no no, which Charlie Bucket? Peter Ostrum or Freddie Highmore?
@NoahPaulLeGies Currently just Ronald Dahl’s. The high schoolers did Charlie and the Chocolate factory for their musical and performed for the Elementary Kids. So she was very interested. I told her we would read the book before seeing any of the movie/series.
Which screen adaptation would you recommend for a 6 yr old?
@MotherDucker Definitely not the Gene Wilder one. I can think of one pretty intense scene that may not be age appropriate. I don't remember if Depp had anything too weird.
@NoahPaulLeGies Charlie Bucket, of course. 🍫 The kid is headed to the chocolate factory 🏭 TOMORROW!
