I included a link to the movie trailer with the party invite so that parents could watch it. One child we invited decided it was too scary, so they are just coming to the pizza part of the party and not the movie part.
DH said there are darker parts than what was shown in the trailer. DS is only 5, and still too young to deal with that. Older kids would be fine. He says boys 8-10 would love it, but unless they know the books, they probably won't want to see a movie about owls.

Sending the trailer link was a good idea. It sounds like it will be a fun party.
