We love to cuddle up on the sofa with a blanket!
We use family movie night as an excuse to have a picnic on our living room floor. We order pizza or make a meal of finger foods, lay out a blanket and everyone gets to lounge around eating at their own pace, enjoying the movie and each other's company. Popcorn and movie candy for dessert and it's a perfect night for our family of five!
When my family watches movies, we usually turn off all the lights and enjoy it in the dark. Also, my boys love action movies.
We make popcorn, turn on the fireplace (if it’s winder) and all watch the movie chosen by the person-of-the-week!

While camping we make popcorn over open coals, set the movie up on a
DVD player and sit around the warm fire and watch the movie.
We, too, get out an air mattress, pile on the pillows and a couple of blankets. Then we choose a COLOR theme for our treats.Choose one – red, green, blue, brown, white… whatever. Then I think hard to gather treats of all that same color, trying to come up with some healthier treats too, and of course a matching beverage. It’s always fun to see what we come up with for the “color of the night”.
We make home made popcorn, and everyone is usually under a blanket. Life is good on movie night.

movie night ALWAYS involves popcorn. my kiddo loves to sit and watch a movie with popcorn. plus it helps him hold still and focus. lol 😉
Movie night is always a challenge. Who get to pick the movie, the popcorn and the hot chocolate, and of course the control remote, but the best part is to have our kitties snuggle with us.
This is my daughters fav right now Monsters Inc. and her older brothers still sit each and every time just to watch it with her 🙂
We plan it a day in advance, to make it more exciting leading up to it! We have something to look forward to and to use as a reward.
