With the world now in a lockdown, one parent decided to activate a regular movie night by creating tickets, a sweets shop “menu” and writing out the film showtime. Her kids could choose from two films, with a ticket costing $5, while cookies, candy and popcorn was an extra charge.
As well as giving her kids a treat, the mum showed they had to earn “movie money” by cleaning their rooms and doing housework. She said, “We can’t go to the movies, so we brought the movies to us! In order to earn movie money, they had to clean their room with no help. They loved it!”
Her post(帖子) was shared on Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, where it’s been liked more than 3,000 times. Parents praised her creativity in the lockdown, adding they might use her idea to get their kids to tidy their rooms. One mum said, “Food price is too cheap for a cinema. Great idea! Kids would love this.” Another wrote, “This is a brilliant idea.” A third said, “What a good idea! I'm going to do this for my two.” While this mum added, “Good idea for kids to keep their rooms tidy.” And another commented, “Love this idea! I might steal it.”
