Family Movie Night

Thank you to Walmart for partnering on this post, and to my readers for supporting my blog. I have made all my product purchases, and all reviews are my own.

One of our favorite family traditions is a fun movie night. No matter the season, you can’t beat watching a new or favorite movie at home, along with plenty of candy and popcorn! My kids get a huge kick out of choosing the movie and picking out their snacks. Add in a little rest and relaxation for the parents, and it’s a win for everyone!

We have been on the go so much this summer. We are so glad to be able to travel again. It’s been wonderful – we have taken some great trips with family and friends, and made some incredible memories! However, after a very busy few weeks, I was really wanting a night at home with my family, and I knew that we would all agree that we needed a movie night.

The new Space Jam movie is now being streamed online, and premiered last weekend. I knew the kids would love it, so I wanted to make it a really fun experience. I love to recreate the fun parts of going to the movie theater from the comfort of our home!

Our family agrees that the snacks are the most important part. We all love the popcorn and sweet treats. I usually try to add some fruit to make it just a bit healthier! Once I started brainstorming and making a list of everything that I needed for our movie night, I quickly decided that the easiest option was to take advantage of free delivery with my Walmart + membership. I made my list, quickly ordered everything that I needed from my phone, chose the delivery time, and it was delivered to my front porch, exactly when I wanted it! It was a no-brainer and so convenient.

If you have a Walmart + membership, you get free shipping from Walmart.com – with no order minimum (excludes freight & Marketplace items), free delivery from your store ($35 minimum, restrictions apply), member prices on fuel, and mobile scan and go when shopping in stores.

Here are some fun photos I snapped while the kids were enjoying the movie — and their fun theater setup with candy and popcorn! They had a blast!

Our cute little movie snack board! It all came together so nicely. Luckily, I was able to get a photo before it was taken down by the kiddos! I added Sour Patch Kids, popcorn, M&Ms, chocolate covered and regular pretzels, chocolate bars, Twizzlers, and Gummi bears. I completed the board with some healthier munchies that my kids also love – grapes, strawberries, and sliced cantaloupe. Walmart always has plenty of convenient foods available, but I’ve been especially loving their groceries. I love to take advantage of this option to have fresh produce delivered to my home, at the same low prices as shopping in-store!

For drinks, we kept it simple. The kids love their Gatorades, and I really like this Hint fruit-infused water!

I added this cute little striped tablecloth to make the table more festive and fun (and also to cut down on messes!). I also couldn’t resist throwing in this perfectly neutral clear serving tray…and I’m loving these old-fashioned plastic popcorn cups! We will definitely be re-using these. Matching paper plates and napkins made the whole evening just as easy as it could be…much needed at the end of a busy week!

Ready to start the movie!

Brody loves his Twizzlers!

They were mesmerized by this movie! Such a fun watch for both the kids and adults! Does anyone remember the first Space Jam movie? This new one definitely lived up to the hype.

It was so nice to stay in and enjoy a cozy family night at home!
