We love family movie nights (especially themed ones). This “Chill-out” Friday night theme celebrates the Blu-ray/DVD release of Penguins of Madagascar. It’s a fun movie about working together as a team. As a Fox Home Ent Insider, we received a home movie night kit which included an ice cream maker ball, cupcake rings, a Penguins ice cube tray, Penguins-themed paper products, and a handful of Penguins plushies that talk (love them!)
Make Ice Cream!
You can’t have a “chill-out” party without ice cream, right? SUGGESTION: You could have an ice cream sundae bar OR you can make your own ice cream. Our ice cream maker ball makes a pint of ice cream, and it comes with simple instructions and recipes that are easy to follow. We just added all the ingredients to one end, and ice with rock salt in the other, then took turns shaking the ball until the ice cream was ready. It took about 30 minutes. We followed their mint chocolate chip recipe, and it turned out great!
- 1 pint – Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 1/2 tsp – Vanilla Extract
- 1/3 cup plus 2 tbs – Sugar
- 1/4 tsp – Mint Extract
- 1/4 cup – Semi-Sweet Mini Chocolate Chips or Shaved Chocolate
Penguin Ice Cubes!
These ice cubes were a great experiment for the kids. (For them, freezing water makes cool penguin ice cubes.)
Serve Penguin Snacks!
“Cheezy Dibbles” look-alike are easy to find. Offer them for snacking!
