My kids' eyes light up when we go down the video game aisle. As much as I want the SDCC of old back, my kids don't seem to mind the new one. Thanks for the catch Nancy. With CA before and after the MD, my fingers must have just gone along for the ride. Fixed now. :) Thanks Joanne. My kids’ eyes light up when we go down the video game aisle.

Thanks for the catch Nancy. With CA before and after the MD, my fingers must have just gone along for the ride. Fixed now. :)

I remember when I was in high school and took my elementary school aged brother to SDCC. He had just read a few of Ray Bradbury's short stories and then got to meet him in PERSON. It was so exciting. Always great are the presentations by the cartoon voice actors. Kids who watch cartoons a lot will definitely recognize the voices and put a face to beloved childhood characters. Nobody should be afraid to take a kid to con...that is if they already got tickets. The only downside is that the popularity of this event means people need to order them RIGHT when they go on sale (they are all sold out for every day this year) Great tips Lori.
