The Croods {review, activities, coloring pages}
You know how much my family loves our movie nights? Well, it is really getting cold and windy outside tonight so we grabbed our new copy of The Croods and made a fun night at home together! I’m here to share with you once again some fun activities, coloring pages, and of course, our review of The Croods.
I received a free copy of The Croods on DVD in exchange for this post, but you know I love to share movies anyway.
Review
This is a tween’s coming of age type of movie, animated and hilarious, so that young and old can all enjoy it together!
Howard and I were just as excited to see The Croods as Benjamin was and it didn’t disappoint. This movie is about a family fighting to survive when their world is falling apart…literally. Tween girls will identify with Eep as she wants to explore and learn her lessons as she goes rather than listen to what her dad’s rules. Dads will identify with Grug as he has to keep the family safe, worry about them all, while also dealing with his live-in mother-in-law. Kids of all ages will love Belt and his “Dun Dun Duhhh”. The family meets Guy who starts introducing them to the world outside their cave and the laughter comes throughout as the cave people discover (and misunderstand) the world.
I’ll say this is a must see for a Family Movie Night and it’s available NOW on Blu-Ray and DVD!
About the movie
