Backyard Movie Night
Peyton Lambton
Summer is winding down and it's time to make the most of the warm evenings. We love to spend as much time as possible outside and this is just another way to gather with friends and family for some fun! Here are ways you can turn your backyard into a movie theater that will be fun for all ages.
Start with a movie screen. If you don't have a screen, you can always use a white sheet. Then you can set up your seating around the viewing area. I like to begin with an outdoor rug and build from there. Grab pillows, blankets and any comfy seating you have around the house. Pile it on and your guests will be ready to snuggle in.
Don't forget the snacks! A popcorn machine will really get everyone in the movie mood. Grab some glass containers and add your favorite candy. This will be a huge hit with the little and big kids. My husband can't watch a movie without Reeces Pieces so we always have a huge bag on hand just for him. Keeping these items on a stand outside will allow everyone to grab a snack without missing a minute of the movie.
