As the chill of winter sets in, there’s no better way to bring the family together than a cozy movie night! This season, UP Faith & Family and Minno offer a collection of heartwarming, faith-centered titles perfect for creating meaningful moments. Here are some creative ways to transform your next movie night into an unforgettable family tradition.
Create a Winter Wonderland Marathon
Set the mood with a lineup of festive favorites! Start with Festival of Trees, a charming tale of love and community. Then, travel to the English countryside with A Very English Christmas, and wrap up with the delightful mystery Dial “S” For Santa. Each story celebrates the spirit of togetherness and the beauty of giving during the holidays.
On Minno, keep the kids entertained with fun and faith-filled stories like Clive & Ian’s 12 Questions of Christmas, A WowieBOZowee Christmas, and The Story of Christmas: A Spark Story Bible Adventure—perfect for teaching little ones the true meaning of the season in a way they’ll enjoy.
Pair Movies with Themed Snacks
Enhance the holiday marathon experience with tasty, winter-themed treats! For example:
- Make “Tree-Toppers” by decorating sugar cookies to resemble Christmas trees while watching Festival of Trees.
- Sip hot cocoa with marshmallow “snowflakes” as you enjoy the snowy scenes in A Very English Christmas.
- Pop some “Santa’s Sleigh Corn” (red and green popcorn) to munch on during Dial “S” For Santa.
Get the kids involved in the kitchen for extra family bonding time!
Discuss Faith-Filled Themes
After the credits roll, take a moment to reflect as a family. What lessons did the characters learn about kindness, generosity, and faith? Use movies like The Story of Christmas: A Spark Story Bible Adventure from Minno as a starting point to discuss the birth of Jesus and its significance during the holiday season.
