To prep her I found this Golden book in my classroom stash. We also tried watching the Disney Peter Pan, but she wasn't into that as well as the Tinkerbell movies. (BTW- Elle says that Tinkerbell is wearing a green swimsuit.)
She rode the bus with Daddy and "the kids" and apparently was Tour Guide Barbie the whole way to the theater (I drove the car just in case we needed a quick exit). We had a really helpful theater worker tell us how long each half would be and where to get a booster seat. We picked up a snack, made a bathroom stop, and then found our seats. We were on the top balcony, which worried me a little that Elle wouldn't be able to see well enough to pay attention, but she didn't seem to mind. Having a snack, binoculars, her little Tinkerbell, and the program to play with helped. There was also a bar in front of our seats so she could stand up when she wanted to. Her favorite parts were Nana the dog, the crocodile, and the flying. I couldn't believe how well she did, and that she stayed awake the whole time. Thankfully, we didn't get home too late and she crashed as soon as she hit the pillow. We feel so blessed to have the opportunity to take her to something like that. Thank you OSSM Foundation!
