Entertaining Idea

Posted: 8/5/2010

Movie time in your backyard can be more fun for parents of small children than asking them to sit still in a theater.

(NAPSI) - Drive-ins may be few and far between, but there's an easy way to bring the fun and excitement of watching films outside into your own backyard.

Both adults and kids may be happy to learn that an inflatable movie screen, such as the Airblown Inflatable Widescreen Movie Screen from Gemmy, can help turn any patio into an entertaining party space. Here are a few ideas for family fun:

• Taking your whole family to the movies can add up, but renting a DVD and watching it on the widescreen can be just as much fun, and the kids can run around.

• Kids getting restless? Hook up their favorite video games and let them invite a few friends over.

• Family reunion time? Show footage of family events from throughout the year.

When you're done, the screen collapses to fit inside a storage bag. The screen is available at Walmart.com, HomeDepot.com, Target.com and other online retailers.
