We do movie nights in our house at least once a month. It's such an easy activity and the children really look forward to it. What I did was buy a three fold poster board and created our "Box Office". Each child comes to the box office to get their ticket, food and drinks. We always offer water, juice, candy and popcorn.
Daddy is the the ticket taker. He takes each childs ticket before they can enter the "theater" (our living room) and issues the rules before he starts the film. His rules are usually silly and make the kids laugh but if he say them, the girls will remind him he needs too.
We have done themes on movie nights too. Some of our favorites have been "drive-in" movie nights when we created cars out of cardboard boxes. We have also done a "The Lorax" themed movie night, "Spooky Buddies" and "Barbie: Princess Charm School". We use Redbox or Netflix. Lately Redbox has been emailing cents off codes so it has been costing us .50 to .75 per movie. Affordable and meaningful family entertainment.
