Child's Play is a 1954 British science fiction film directed by Margaret Thomson and starring Mona Washbourne and Christopher Beeny.

[3][4] A group of children ("the holy terrors") manage to split the atom and thereby create a new form of popcorn.

Sharp called it "a good little picture" and he would work with Group 3 on several more occasions.

[5] The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "An engaging fantasy, done with good humour and a freshness that atones for the roughness of some of the edges.

One could, perhaps, have wished a little more satire and a little less obvious farce; but the film is likeable, and will be enjoyed by adults as well as children.
