In the late 80’s I didn’t watch much television. I was aware of what cultural touchstones were out there and one of the largest was certainly the TGI-Fridays block of programming that was on ABC. It was equal, if not superior to the Must-See-TV era where Thursday night belonged to NBC. From 1989 to 1997 it was one of the largest cultural juggernauts on the planet that created a classic character and was go-to family viewing for a generation or two of kids. Family Matters was one of the lead television shows and every single season is available on disc or to stream at home.
When I told our oldest son that Tom & Jerry Movie: The Fast & The Furry was the film this week I cast a wayward eye his direction. He’s 10 and I didn’t think that kids that age had even heard of Tom & Jerry. He returned a wayward eye towards me and said, “I’m down with old-school cartoons dad”. Your kids younger than that will be completely down with it too. Plus there’s a cool box craft that allows your kids to create and sit in their own ‘fast car’ as they watch the film.
This week at Camp Warner Bros. is about family entertainment and getting away from the television. In addition to the surprisingly cute, family friendly film Alex & Me, there’s a nice workout that runs close to the movie. This is especially beneficial in the dog days of summer when it’s hot and you might need a new twist to get active.
This week at Camp Warner Bros. has a movie from one of the best-and smartest shows on television. Teen Titans GO! is much more than just a kid’s cartoon. It’s incredibly smart, well written and is self-aware enough to break animation boundaries that rival it against The Simpsons or Family Guy. There’s also a go-to craft that’s simple enough for kids to be able to do that allows them to channel their favorite Teen Titan and save money.
Our kids love Scooby Doo. The oldest has been collecting the comic books since 2014. The youngest has gravitated more towards the screen incarnation of those meddling kids. As a matter of fact, just the other day we were out doing errands and our oldest shouted “look, there’s the Mystery Mobile”. It wasn’t an officially licensed vehicle or anything, just an old van that was painted to resemble their vehicle. All of this coincides nicely with this week’s Camp Warner Bros has Scooby-Doo!: WrestleMania Mystery! is the movie. Nothing Scooby Doo is complete without a Scooby Snack and this snack is utterly fabulous. Our kids loved eating it, helped make and even passed the health litmus test of our family’s snack police.
This week at Camp Warner Bros. is near and dear to our family because it revolves around one of our favorite Cartoon Network shows We Bare Bears. In this case the craft is a surprisingly sticky slime that’s simple to make, which is paired with We Bare Bears: The Movie. If you’re a fan of We Bare Bears then the movie is a must-watch event. Even if you’re a casual fan of the show then you’ll enjoy the film for all of the right reasons.
It’s week number 2 of our at-home summer with Camp Warner Bros. This week’s activity is one that the kids could really get behind-making candy! The craft was rather simple and corresponded to the movie of one of the best shows in recent memory on Cartoon Network. The title of the candy surely gave it away for fans of the show. The film that ties into the craft is Steven Universe: The Movie.
97 out of 100 summer camps have been cancelled. To compensate for that some brands have really stepped up to give parents a break in certain areas. Camp Warner Bros. starts this week. In addition to introducing you and your family to potentially new entertainment they’ll have weekly activities that were created around certain releases.
This week has Super Hero Training, which is something any parent can relate to and might need help with. Granted, part of that could be a distraction and parents know that an entertaining distraction is far different than just a diversion for children. LEGO DC: Shazam! Magic and Monsters is celebrating its release and is certain to entertain LEGO, DC or audiences aged 5 and up that want to laugh and have fun.
For example, here’s the Batman Workout that kids will certainly get a laugh out of. It’s geared towards those young children who’ll be able to find Batman or who want to fight crime in their backyard.
Here’s the schedule for Camp Warner Bros. this summer. There’s something for any camper, so pay loose attention.
