Seattle Childrens Film Festival at Northwest Film Forum

Got kids? Have the emotional level of a young child? In either case, the Northwest Film Forum has got you covered starting this weekend.  If you've ever wished you could expose the short young people in your life to something a bit different than the latest commercial vehicle from Hollywood (and the merchandise associated with it), the festival has a wealth of opportunities to see works from around the world in a community atmosphere.
Along with current films there are archival screenings, hands-on workshops, a musical pajama party featuring something called Casper Babypants and a pancake breakfast.  And seriously, why would you deny your spawn a pancake breakfast?

It's a 10 day blow-out that I can't do it justice in a single post. I haven't seen all the materials being presented, but from those I have, this looks like one top notch operation. More info can be found at the Northwest Film Forum website. They're doing a truly good thing for the community here, and I hope folks will check out the opportunities taking place between 1/28 and 2/6.

I've reviewed a few of the offerings over at Three Imaginary Girls.  Everything I watched was pretty good so well worth checking out.
