Dumbo Movie Night

We tried to have a double feature with the animated and live action Dumbo Movies for our #movienightfriday, but we were not liking the live action version.

Anyway, Dumbo mostly takes place in Florida, but we kept this lesson to the Circus. We did end up adding The Greatest Showman, after in replacement, which we love to sing along to and really get the history of how Circus’s came about.

We also had a fun menu full of circus themed food to eat along side. We hope you enjoyed this lesson as well.

Easy Peanut Butter Fudge with Marshmallow Cream – Fluxing Well

“I used to make as many kinds of candy as possible. It was too much.

Rather than make a double batch, I chose another kind of candy, but this easy marshmallow cream peanut butter fudge and evaporated milk is really my favorite.
