CAF ANIMATED FAMILY SHORTS: AFTER SCHOOL SNACKS (7+)
Sugar, spice, and everything nice! We’ve got something for the whole family to enjoy with our Animated Family Shorts. This year we have 9 exciting films that are sure to keep children and adults alike entertained and enthralled, all without the exhaustion of running around the playground or dealing with the aftermath of a fated sugar crash. Despite the films being focused on ages 7+, there’s a little something special for everyone; there are films about friendships, facing your fears, and even clowning around. All ages are welcome to join in on the fun and enjoy these animated sweet treats.
