Dinosaur Themed Family Movie Night

Dinosaur Themed Family Movie Night

We love having themed family movie nights. To finish off our Dinosaur Preschool Unit and to kick off our new homeschool year, we had a Dinosaur Themed Family Movie night. You can get more ideas for dino themed movie nights from the one we had three years ago at the close of our summer long study.

If you are just getting started with Family Movie Nights or you aren't quite sure where to start, you can check out my How to Host A Family Movie Night blog post. It highlights all of the "rules" I like to follow to put together our fun nights. 

For our Dino Themed Movie Night we watched The Good Dinosaur, finished a few of our Dinosaur crafts, and dined on some dinosaur themed foods.

Dinosaur Movie

There are not a lot of dinosaur themed movie choices that I find to be acceptable for our family, but the Good Dinosaur fit the bill for our night.  

The kids were ecstatic from the time they woke up. They just couldn't wait to get started with our movie day. Everything ended up being super low key, but you would have thought it was Christmas. I just love seeing them so excited about simple little things. They are pure joy!!! 

Decorations

I used plates and napkins I already had from my party bin, added some dinosaur toys, and a book for decoration, and quickly put together some food tents to add some more dinosaur fun.
