After getting repeated requests for pics of the Daddy Day Care house�including one e-mail that shouted �I CAN�T BELIEVE YOU NEVER DID THE DADDY DAY CARE HOUSE!!!� I broke down and rented it last week to see what all the fuss was about. Well, this movie had me from the minute it opened on this charming yellow house. What a pleasant surprise!
Eddie Murphy-Daddy Day Care
The 2003 comedy stars Eddie Murphy and Regina Kingas Charlie and Kim Hinton, a couple trying to make ends meet after he gets laid off. She goes back to work, leaving him to be a stay-at-home dad to their young son Ben (the adorable Khamani Griffin). That�s when he comes up with the idea of starting an in-home day care.

The movie also stars Jeff Garlin (who you may recognize from �Curb Your Enthusiasm�) and Steve Zahn as Charlie�s partners in Daddy Day Care.

The woodwork and built-ins are just amazing. One of my favorite rooms in the house.

The actual house is located in Pasadena, as so many beautiful movie houses seem to be (Father of the Bride and Mr. and Mrs. Smith, among others.)

They filmed most exterior scenes on the property, but I�m assuming the interiors were on a soundstage. I could find very little information about the sets, though, so if anyone knows anything about them, fill us in!back door

Are there any �kids� movies� you enjoy watching because of the great sets? Alvin and the Chipmunks is one of my faves (I posted photos of Dave�s cottage here).
