From the amazing music to the inspiring story, Moana is a classic Disney movie that everyone in the family will love. And that’s why it makes the perfect choice for family movie night! This summer have some fun creating a Hawaiian-inspired party with these Moana movie night recipes, activities, and DIY ideas.
Below you’ll find everything you need to host an amazing Moana Movie Night including all of your food, drinks, and activities! We also think this would be a great slumber party idea or outdoor movie night!
As you’re planning your Moana movie night, you’ll need to think about what you’ll eat and what you’ll do to entertain your guests. Start by putting together a movie night menu to ensure you have plenty of food for everyone to enjoy. Whether you serve a full meal or just a selection of snacks, you can choose from a variety of fun recipe ideas for your movie night. Serving a full dinner for your movie night is a great way to enjoy an entire evening dedicated to Moana. When coming up with a main dish idea for your celebration, think about different Hawaiian flavors you can bring to the table. BBQ chicken and pineapple quesadillas are a great choice because they’re kid-friendly and easy to eat as you enjoy your movie. Or for a sit-down dinner, try grilled Hawaiian chicken for your main course. If you’ll be creating a full meal for your Moana movie night, you’ll need some side dish recipes! Hawaiian inspired macaroni salad is a simple side dish that would pair well with the rest of your island dinner recipes. And you can’t go wrong with rice as a side dish when you’re serving a Hawaiian inspired dinner! Pineapple fried rice is a great option for your Moana movie night. This Hawaii Banana Bread recipe is the perfect combination of rich and sweet! While you’re watching the movie, you’re going to need some snacks to enjoy! Stick with the Hawaiian theme by providing island-inspired snacks, like pineapple salsa, to enjoy during the movie. We also love this 3 ingredient tropical trail mix to enjoy during the movie. You can’t have a movie night without popcorn! Make some movie theater style popcorn and serve it in Moana popcorn boxes for your movie night. Keep the Hawaiian menu theme going with a fun drink! Hawaiian punch or blue island punch are both great choices for serving your guests as you’re watching this fun Disney movie. Or whip up a fun Hawaiian inspired mocktail to serve to your guests, like a virgin banana daiquiri. Make sure your guests can satisfy their sweet tooth at your movie party by making a few desserts! Moana cupcakes or Heart of Te Fiti cupcakes are both great choices to celebrate the movie night feature. Decorate your cupcakes with a printable Moana cupcake wrapper to give it a more festive look. Ice cream is another great option for your celebration. Add some tropical flavor to your dessert by serving a mango pineapple sorbet. You'll love this Hawaiian Fruit Salad recipe, and it's super easy to make! You could also go all-out with your frozen movie dessert by making your own Moana freak shake with piña colada ice cream and movie-inspired treats. On top of having some delicious recipe ideas, you’ll also need to come up with fun activities for your party guests. Try these movie night DIY projects to entertain your guests before the movie starts! Get your home ready for movie night with the help of some printable luau party decorations. You can deck out your living room with printable signs and banners to set the mood. Using Moana coloring sheets is a great way to get the kids excited about the movie and keep them entertained as the movie playing. Make sure the kids at movie night look the part by helping them make their own DIY flower crown out of felt. Get your kids excited about Moana movie night with this fun paper doll craft. Just download the printable template to create your own paper Moana at home before you watch the movie. Another fun craft idea for the kids as you wait for the movie to start is to make slime. Moana ocean slime is the perfect slime recipe to complement the rest of your movie night festivities. If slime isn’t your thing, try making some playdough instead! Sand playdough is a great beach-themed activity for the kids at your movie night. If you’re looking for a fun game to play before you start the movie, Moana bingo is the perfect choice! Just print out the sheets and play a few rounds before you turn on the feature film. Using sponges, your kids can make their own DIY boat, just like Moana. And after they’re finished making their boats, put them in a tub of water for playtime before the movie starts. Your guests can have a blast making their own tiki masks before watching the movie using empty toilet paper rolls. All you need are cardboard rolls, chalk pens, and a few pictures of tiki masks for inspiration! Make sure the kids pay attention to the movie with the help of a fun movie scavenger hunt. Print out a printable beach scavenger hunt, then tell the kids to color the items on the list when they see them in the movie.Everything You Need for a Moana Movie Night
