To keep us sane as the days in quarantine dragged by, I decided to implement theme days. I chose movies the girls like and planned activities around them. The girls loved the days so much that we did a few more this summer before school started, so this will be the start of a series on the theme days we've done from last summer through this summer.
Our first one was Harry Potter. We love Harry Potter in our house (well, at least the girls and I do...daddy has seen a couple of the movies, but isn't as into it as we are). The girls chose which movies they wanted to watch, and we of course had to have butterbeer to go along with it.
At this point we had not yet visited the Wizarding World at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, so they had no idea how butterbeer was supposed to taste. Now they are ruined forever!
We used a super simple recipe to make butterbeer milkshakes - vanilla ice cream, butterscotch syrup, and cream soda. Then we topped with whipped cream and drizzled some butterscotch. The girls loved it, but now that they are Wizarding World pros, they say it doesn't taste like the real thing.
For our activity, we made Harry Potter character bookmarks. I think their corner bookmarks turned out pretty cute! We used this tutorial.
