Why Didn't They Make Spacesuits? Some Pre-Kindergarten Thoughts During and After a Viewing of Georges Méliès 1902 A Trip to the Moon

by Susan Liedke 

"I can see that they're making a rocketship. A real, real rocketship." 

"Oh my gosh, that looks SO scary." 

"I think I was scared that the master got left behind on the moon." 

"I would tell other kids to watch it, but only for 4 and older. It might scare a 3 year old. The alien parts were scary, and the part where the moon changes his face." 

"My favorite part was when they were smashing the aliens because I don't like when spooky stuff is around."
