Summer has arrived and I’ve barely seen my kids! You know what I mean – they are constantly outside playing, only coming in for a drink or something to eat. Trying to get everyone to come together for a movie night can be tough, and I don’t even have teenagers yet! I can’t imagine when they are all over town with their friends and we’re trying to get a hold of them for a simple movie night. A little piece of mind and some connectivity can all happen thanks to Walmart Family Mobile PLUS plans.
Just look at my kiddos (above) to see how serious movie selecting is in our home! We definitely prefer to stream the movie to our TV so everyone can comfortably watch, but the phone lets them have control of the selection process! Our family has two age groups we can cover when it comes to a family movie night. We can cater to the younger crowd or the preteen crowd, so we’ve put together TWO lists of great family movie night options for both the older and younger crowds! Even if we’ve seen the movie before, these are hits. Take a look at our list and help your family choose a new movie for family night!
Older Crowd Movie Night Favorites
The Sandlot
Any of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise
Ghostbusters
The Goonies
Back to the Future
Younger Crowd Movie Night Favorites
Lillo & Stich
The Little Mermaid
Finding Nemo
Shrek
Minions (or Despicable Me)
When you sign up for Walmart Family Mobile PLUS plan featuring Unlimited Talk, Text, & Data which includes up to 10GB of 4G LTE data PLUS, you get a a free movie on VUDU (new release rental $7 value) every month per line for $49.88! So now you can pencil in a regular family movie night with ease – and the more line your family has, the more movies! With all of that extra data, we can let the kids go crazy taking their own photos and even making their own videos. They can even download a few kid-friendly games to play on rainy days, or if we go on a trip they can stay entertained and take turns playing games.
Since Family Mobile bills you later, you only have to pay $19.88 for the Starter Kit when you sign up. You simply purchase your phone of choice (we went with the Cool Pad Rogue, easy to use, lightweight, great for smaller hands $19.88, a Rollback from $39.83) and a Starter Kit. A bit of advice from someone who ended up at two Walmart stores before making her purchase, call your store ahead of time to be absolutely sure they carry the phones and starter kits. The first Walmart I visited did not, even though the store locator said they DID. I went to another store and they had an entire display just for Walmart Family Mobile!
