Spend an evening watching "old school" movies with your kids you enjoyed as a child.
Aren't there some movies you can watch over and over again and bring a smile to your face when you watch them?
Sometimes it is just fun to have a lazy day/evening and watch movies. It's interesting to get your children's perspective. Do they enjoy the same parts of the movie you do?
You can stream many of these movies from Netflix or Amazon Prime. I even like to go “old school” and borrow a movie from the library. How about Jiffy Pop popcorn you make on the stove?

Extra Credit: “Summer Homework” - As part of their journal writing, have the kids write up a movie review: Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down, favorite actors/actresses, favorite part of the movie, etc.
