Planning a Family Game/Movie Night

If your family needs something to do on a Friday or weekend, this is perfect to do. You can decide how long you'd like to stay up. Here is a list of fun movies and games you might like to try.

• 1 Hour: Watch a favorite half hour movie and then play a simple game such as Connect Four or Bingo challenging members of your family.
• 1 1/2 Hours: Watch a movie such as NeverEnding Story or Monsters Inc. and play a short game or just watch the movie!
• 2 Hours: Watch a movie such as Matilda or Free Willy and have time for a half an hour game.
• 3+ Hours: Watch Fly me to the Moon or Ant Bully and play a long game such as Chutes and Ladders. For an even longer game, play Monopoly or any family favorite.

Remember to ask your parents for permission to have a family game/movie night. Show them this list too. This gives you some fun family time and appropriate shows for children of all ages. Good luck with your success!

(If you end up doing this on a school night, make sure to stay under the 2 hour category or else you will be cranky. Make sure to thank your parents for letting you hold a family night.)
