Friday evenings have become movie night in our household. It’s a chance for us to order our favorite food, relax together as a family, and have a few laughs. My son really enjoys movies with lots of action and adventure; finding new options he likes can be a challenge for me. I was really excited when I had the chance to check out Lionsgate’s newest release, The Adventures of Panda Warrior!

My family recently decided to have a Family Movie Night. We watched Norm of the North from Lionsgate Entertainment, Inc., an animated family comedy. Who doesn’t love talking polar bears and comical little lemmings, right? Norm of the North has recently been released on Blu-Ray, DVD and On Demand formats (including Digital HD for downloading to your favorite devices).

OMG…who doesn’t love Tom & Jerry! I’m over 50 yrs old and will stop whatever I’m doing to watch Tom & Jerry chase after each other. Can’t help laughing every time I watch those two!
Okay, let’s get back to CAMP stuff- the movie this week is Tom & Jerry Movie: The Fast & The Furry. Now this movie may be an oldie, but it sure is a GOODIE! Now, remember this is a CARTOON, and it’s humor. I know all the campers had fun this week because laughter is the best activity we can do!
About Tom & Jerry Movie: The Fast & The Furry
Tom and Jerry enter an extreme car race competition called the “Super Race” in order to win the grand prize of a beautiful, dream mansion! Driving suped-up hot rods that can adapt to any environment (land, sea or air), they compete in this wild race around the world, encountering famous landmarks along the way and leaving chaos in their wake.
Tom and Jerry personalized their cars, too. The had so many adventures and saw landmarks that are worth seeing. You won’t stop laughing!
One of my favorite thing to do with my parents back in the day was to go to the DRIVE-IN movie theater. We all would have our blankets, pillows, and snacks! So many beautiful memories!
What about you? I wish we had one near us now- that would be a perfect family fun day. Well, for now, you can do it at HOME- create your drive-in theater and watch Tom & Jerry Movie: The Fast & The Furry.
Create this experience for your kids- easy and inexpensive- a Mom’s Dream Activity! Also, each kid can customize their car. The campers will love to play in these cars for weeks to come!
We highly recommend the whole family to watch Tom & Jerry Movie: The Fast & The Furry, which is is now available to own on Digital, Blu-ray™ & DVD. This movie is GREAT for all AGES!
Thank YOU! Please show us your CARS!!!

During this weird time, it’s hard to keep on track and set goals, but we try to do it every day. My daughter being out of school and unable to hang out with friends; we try to take the time to get out and workout. Working out is not my favorite thing to do, but I will do it for my daughter! The movie this week is Alex & Me.
This week’s Camp Warner Bros movie Alex & Me taught my daughter that DEDICATION to something would take you a long way. Alex Morgan is a young female athlete who learns how you need passion, determination, and self-worth to make all your dreams come true.
About Alex & Me:
Teenager Reagan Willis has one dream – to play soccer like her hero, Alex Morgan. Her bedroom is a shrine to all things Alex, including a life-size poster of the Olympic gold medalist. Yet in the Willis house, Reagan lives in the shadow of her prep football superstar brother, Logan. When Reagan fails to make the cut of the premiere local soccer club team and is humiliated by her rival Claire, she’s certain her ship has sailed. But after accidentally hitting her head, Reagan’s poster of Alex Morgan suddenly comes to life, and everything changes!
Summer is a great time for campers to think of their goals – be it short term or long term! In Alex & Me, Reagan (played by Siena Agudong (“Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn,” and “Star Falls”) uses a chart to keep track of her daily soccer drills as she progresses towards her goals.
Here is the CHART you can print out yourself- Alex & Me Goal Chart
Campers can hold themselves accountable, and mark off each item on their list as they are completed! My daughter enjoyed writing her goals down for the week, and her goal was not soccer but ARTWORK. She wanted to paint a pair of shoes, so she created a daily task to get it done, and she finished the shoes in 3 days.
Another goal that we both made is to work out every day for five days- we go for a walk for two days and workout in our backyard for three days. I needed this far more than she did, but we had fun and will continue. I like how my daughter looked forward to working out.
So here you go our backyard workout with the BodyGym- we do 15 minutes each on the bar and then stretches.
In soccer, developing strength enables a player to control his or her body better when they are striking or heading the ball, making a save in a goal, or changing directions abruptly on the field. Participating in group physical activity can be fun, elevate your mood, and strengthen your body, and bond with your team all at the same time. Print this activity sheet HERE.
Same with any physical activity – it is super important to teach these tricks early. Getting kids off the video games and TV is so important right now. Yes, it is summertime, but it’s not time to VEG OUT! I saw a big difference in my daughter’s attitude and mood when she got more exercise, and outside time so this is something we will continue. Thank you, ALEX, for teaching my daughter about goals!
We highly recommend the whole family to watch Alex & Me, which is is now available to own on Digital, Blu-ray™ & DVD.
Here are the previous movie and crafts- #CampWarnerBros
Thank YOU! Please let us know what your family is doing to keep on track and how you are staying active!
Family movie night is one of our favorite activities. There’s just something wholesome about all of us winding down and enjoying a movie cuddled up on the couch with our favorite snacks. I often find myself overwhelmed with what snacks to pick so that we aren’t always eating the same thing, but picking healthy snacks that appeal to everyone’s tastebuds can be a little tricky. Recently though I found a company that takes the hassle out of picking our movie snacks which saves me both time spent at the grocery store and provides a healthy variety of treats.

Lionsgate Entertainment is a name I’m hearing more and more when it comes to home entertainment. Recent offerings from Lionsgate include The Shack, John Wick 2, Shaun the Sheep The Movie, A Madea Christmas, Mockingjay, The Age of Adaline … so many great movies ranging from inspirational to drama, comedy, and animated.
You know with a Lionsgate film, you’re in for a good time. Most recently, my children and I watched Air Bound. It’s a cute movie about some city mice who are tired of the daily humdrum of their lives and want a little adventure. They get an adventure for sure when they meet some new friends who need help saving their family from a bunch of super-villain weasels…. [read more]
Every Friday night we’ve developed a special ritual in our house: Family Movie Night. At the end of a long week, it’s a chance to come together, bond, and reconnect as a family unit. Each of us has really come to look forward to these special Friday nights!
After a long work week and crazy school schedule we like to take a night and just relax! Movie nights are truly a MUST in our house! We enjoy all sorts of fun movie flicks but nothing goes together with a movie night than popcorn! For years we have enjoyed the traditional flavor of movie butter popcorn. More recently we have found Popcorn for the People, a flavored popcorn, that I think you will LOVE as much as we do!
Something else I love about this company is their commitment to providing employment opportunities for adults with autism and other developmental disabilities…. [read more]
As a child of the ‘80s, I always experience a bit of nostalgia whenever I see childhood favs being brought back to life. You can imagine my excitement when I was made aware of a new Little House on the Prairie DVD.
