My boys are big Angry Birds lovers. They've played the Angry Birds game a lot. We haven't had the most luck in making it through movies in the theater, but at home movie nights are way more successful. We were super excited to find out that the Angry Birds Movie was just released and we could stream it online!
I thought it would be fun to make a snack to enjoy for the event, so we made simple Angry Birds fruit pizzas.
For the pizza crust, I used simple sugar cookie dough. I bought a pre-made tube and sliced it up to easily get circles without having to make a huge mess in the kitchen.
Then, I made some cream cheese spread (1/3 cup sugar, a block of cream cheese and a dash of vanilla extract) to use for our fruit pizza sauce! I cut fruits that were the colors of the birds as well as yellow fruit strips for beaks. Of course the birds need eyes, so we added some candy eyes, too!
Now, I will say we probably should have made the green fruit pizza the pig, but there are green birds in angry birds. Next time I would just do a green oval for the pig's nose.
Nonetheless, the boys thought they were super fun and started eating them before I could even take a picture!
The Angry Birds Movie was quite a hit, too! It was cute and funny and really made the background of why the Angry Birds attack the pigs connect. My boys watched it to the end and I know we'll be watching it again soon. We used our Chromecast to stream it to the TV! Peace out DVDs! Streaming is the way we watch most movies now. Are you the same way?
I've talked before about the great benefits of Walmart Family Mobile, but I wanted to share about them again today. This is such a great service for a family on a budget or for that first phone for your teen.
I went in to Walmart recently and purchased the Coolpad Catalyst, which is a great little Android phone for just $59.88. Walmart Family Mobile's plan is such a great value.You can get unlimited talk, text, & data which includes up to 10GB of 4G LTE plus a free movie on VUDU every month ($7 value) per line for $49.88.
Having the VUDU perk makes a monthly family movie night a no-brainer! And we always need extra data when we're out and about!
Besides the cost of the phone, the out of pocket cost to get started is really low. You pay just $19.98 for the starter kit and then aren't billed for the plan until the end of your first month of service! Have you tried Walmart Family Mobile?
Visit this link to find an in-store event near you to meet with a Walmart Family Mobile rep. At the event you will even get a code that you can scan to receive a free power up for the Endless Runner Game on the Angry Birds Action! app. Also you can scan the Angry Birds code on the displays to unlock a selfie augmented reality experience with the Hatchlings.
