In my family, there is something special about movie night. It’s a time where we all get together and bond while watching an agreed upon film. Now that my son is 18 and my daughter is 9, they are growing farther apart in age. But when it comes to movies, it’s something that they can agree upon, especially when it’s movies that are fun. Movie night has become quite a positive experience!
Preparing for movie night in our house is always fun. We really like to make it an authentic movie experience, complete with snacks.
Here are three ways we prepare for movie night in our house:
- Tickets please- My daughter is very creative, so she makes us tickets for the movie, which we have to present to her before we start the film. She goes out of her way to make the tickets as authentic as possible.
- Snacks- Movie night isn’t complete without snacks, and popcorn is a must. You can do to the dollar store and buy popcorn bags to serve the popcorn in to make it feel like you are really at the movies.
- Silence is Golden- It’s my duty during movie night to make sure that everyone has their smartphones, tablets, and other technology on silent. Our movie nights are a tech-free zone.
With those three tips, our movie nights are always a blast!
