Kids’ Summer Movie Programs at Regal and Cinemark! Shows Just $1 or less!

May 20, 2014 by Maegen Blue

 

Go here for the lists of cheap kids’ movies for 2016! 

 

 

 

It’s almost time for cheap summer movies for the kids!  I’ll remind you about these, but here’s the rundown if you want to plan on some now.

Not familiar with these great programs? Theaters run them to bring families in, and it’s a great way to entertain the kids. Movies are typically older ones, but you still get the big screen experience! How crowded it is depends on your location. If you want to comment on that, please do!

    I was looking up the info for the Lorax at the Grand, and wasn’t able to find it. Would it be possible to get a link or something? I saw How to Train Your Dragon on the 21st, through Click! I didn’t see Lorax, and we’d love to go! 🙂

    Hi, Megan,
    Thanks so much! I’m planning on doing a separate post featuring community outdoor movies. We’ll also have as many as we can in the weekend round ups and on the calendar! That’s a great line up.

    How much is it for parents to see the $1 movie. This might be a stupid question but is it also $1 for the parent?
