FRENCH ANIMATION

Want to dump your kids in front of a screen this afternoon so you can do something, anything else without feeling wracked with guilt? Why not take them along to the French animated films at the Auckland Library? Anything French is incapable of being brainmelting drivel and is in fact guaranteed to add several IQ points to your child. While they’re watching, you could read a book, do some work, or scroll through brain-melting drivel on your phone.

Today, 2pm-3pm, Central City Library. www.alliance-francaise.co.nz for details.
