• Stapler
• Scissors
• Ribbon (optional to close bags)
• Twist Ties (to close bags under the ribbon)

Directions

• Print out the Movie Night Treat Topper.  (We used cardstock)

• Personalize it with a message, drawing or the name of the title you want to watch together.  We included two in case you would like to make more than one.

• Cut the topper out and fold along the middle, dotted line.

• Fill your bag with a container/bag of popcorn and your children’s favourite treats (candy, dried fruits etc.).

• Fold over the top of your bag and staple it shut with the topper on as shown.

• Surprise your children with bag and let them “cash it in” on a rainy day for some family fun.  OR surprise your spouse/partner with the package when your children have gone to bed! (That is why we included two!)  You could even add a follow-up thing to do based on the movie (such as LEGO for The LEGO Movie).

Purpose

• Spending time together.

Safety Notes

• Many organizations recommend that children under the age of five do not eat popcorn or hard candy as they are choking hazards.
• Be sure to directly supervise children directly while eating these types of snacks.
• Exercise caution when using a stapler, scissors.
