The box office hit Minions: The Rise of Gru is now on Vudu! And what better way to watch a family movie than with the whole crew? Here’s how to make an event out of it.
Before the Show
We’ve rounded up some fun Minions activity sheets for you and the kids. Whether your kid likes coloring, playing games, making hands-on art or telling stories, there’s something in this packet to keep them busy. (Or to keep you busy. We won't tell.)
In the days leading up to movie night, print out the activity sheets you think your kids will enjoy. Some of the activities require supplies like glue or scissors, so make sure you have anything you’ll need on hand. Also, be sure to print out these signs and at-home movie tickets.
