It's hot...and only going to get a lot hotter as the summer rolls on in New Orleans. Air conditioning sure is a welcome amenity when trying to keep the little ones entertained. So, why not hit up some kid's movies around town? Below is a list of the indoor movies and at the very end of the list are the outdoor ones too.
