Movie night...with tickets, a snack bar and just enough theatre to make it feel different.
Let the family pick the movie.
You can nominate 2–3 parent-approved options and vote, draw one from a bowl or let someone have tonight’s pick.
Then write the movie and start time on your Cinema Poster.
Get the kids to help you set up the ultimate cinema in your lounge.
Use comfy cushions, blankets and even fairy lights to create a cozy setting for the whole family.
Before the movie starts, hand everyone their movie ticket.
If you want to make it extra fun, one child can be the ticket collector and stamp, tear or mark each ticket at the “door.”
Then show everyone to their "assigned" seats.
Before the movie starts, let everyone place their cinema order using the printable provided.
The Cinema Snack Menu has boxes for:
Parents you decide beforehand what’s actually available, then get the kids tick/circle what they want.
Pile up the cushions. Dim the lights. Deliver the snacks. And watch your movie.
No additional activity required. The movie night is enough.
Ordinary Friday movie night upgraded and a great reminder that home doesn’t have to be boring just because you stayed there.
