Super Duper Family Fun Night!

For a long time now, we have tried to to have one night a week set aside for “Family Night.” This most often happens on Friday night and has generally been a movie night. Lately, it is getting harder and harder to find a movie that we haven’t already seen, so I decided this week to change things up a bit. Now this, like most all my brilliant ideas, was not an original thought. A blog I frequently read, Whittaker Woman, posts often about the family nights she plans, and though I can only dream of being as creative as she is, I did my darndest. So here are some pics from our first ever (named by Toria) Super Duper Family Fun Night: Everything Art

We started with Pizza Palettes.

Our centerpiece, made earlier in the day by the kids and I:

We had “Mushrooms” and Ants on a Log for our veggies:

And what could be more artsy than Sushi?

Although we ate ours for dessert and they consisted not of fish, but of Rice Krispie Treats!

The table was covered in paper and crayons so that we could all demonstrate our own artistic abilities anywhere we wished on the table. After dinner, we tried some bubble art, but unfortunately, it didn’t turn out near as well as I’d hoped. Even though the project was a total flop, it was still fun watching the kids trying their hardest to blow a bunch of bubbles through a straw!

All in all, it was a pretty fun night and by the time it was done, my creative juices were flowing and I’ve started a list of theme ideas for future nights! Stay tuned for future Super Duper Family Fun Night…
