(chuckle)  If you've got a local tobacco shop, check into getting their empty 
boxes (especially the wooden ones), for renovating into jewelry boxes and 
children's treasure boxes.  Even a seven year old can have fun with tole 
painting and decoupage, and you can pull "quality control" for her.  Even 
splatter-painting with oils or enamels will appeal to the generalized 
audience of a flea market, and the girls can build up a decent stock for 
holiday craft-sales.

That's another good idea...

Definitely for teens who enjoy raunchy jokes -- spring it on that type.  
Younger kids??  Save it for the latter stages of sex-ed.  It -is- a movie 
from a completely different culture, after all.
 AH> I'll keep it in mind...
Fair enough.
B*B!
