Last week Kerry from Think Parents (who by the way is about to set off on a six month trip across America, me jealous?) organised it for us to go and see a pre-showing of
Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure. We managed to get to a special showing which included a fairy breakfast. I asked for an invite for Erin’s friend too, so to say they were excited was an understatement!

The morning began with choosing a fairy outfit to wear, followed by the making of wands. The breakfast was hosted by a full-size fairy who clearly runs a successful business fulfilling every little girls dream of being made over into a fairy (I wonder how much one of her parties cost?). Breakfast was mini bacon and sausage butties with fruit, coffee and fresh juice. Afterwards the girls had fairy make up applied by the big fairy and then we had a game of pass the parcel followed by a bit of dancing. Finally fairy dust was handed out and wishes were made, rounding off a magical morning.

We then went straight in to see Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure which I believe is the follow up to Tinkerbell and includes the successful Disney ‘Fairies’. The film was wholesome and good Disney value as you’d expect. Although I was impressed with headstrong Tinkerbell, she’s no shrinking violet. The moral was friendship and everyone lives happily ever after which is the norm these days, not like Bambi and Watership Down, that was our rite of passage, being completely horrified at the poor orphaned rabbits and deer, I digress… A great morning that will live long in the memory of our little fairies.

The first of three videos I have for you this weekend, yes, I am like the person that invites you to watch their holiday slideshow Don’t be falling asleep now….or sneaking away. In this clip you see Tinkerbell flying through the air and a short bit of the firework display, unfortunately the Cinderella Castle is obscured by some trees.
