Description:
We have movie night in the middle of the week (there is usually nothing going on then).
All you have to do is pick a movie all the the children will like. We have anywhere from 4 to 13 year olds. I usually pick the movies like Iron Giants, Inspector Gadget, George of the Jungle.

Other comments or suggestions:
Ask your local video store employees for ideas. Oh, and the key to a successful movie night is lots of junk food. I've found if the movie stinks, they still watch it if they have lots of munchies!!!
