Keep Christmas Merry With Family Movie Time & Despicable Me 2

Keep your family feeling merry this Christmas by popping in Despicable Me 2, on Blu Ray and DVD. I received my own copy for review which kept my kids laughing from start to end.

I recently heard about an interesting study, stating that researchers have pinpointed the exact time that families are most likely to feel cranky with each other on Christmas Day. They say that around 3pm on Christmas Day, is the most likely time for Christmas Crankiness.

While at first I found this to be somewhat disturbing, as I thought about it, I realized that it does make sense. Christmas morning brings a lot of excitement, kids up way earlier then normal, tired parents who have stayed up late wrapping gifts, new toys, over stimulation, and lots of sugary snacks. That can be a lot for kids to take in, and by the afternoon they may start to get cranky.

To keep your family feeling merry, it might be a great strategy to encourage some down-time, by bringing out a new movie for everyone to enjoy! If your family is anything like mine, Despicable Me 2 might be just the ticket to keeping your little minions happy!

Despicable Me 2 would be a fantastic movie to enjoy together on Christmas Day, or any time that you could use a good laugh together. There is a little something for everyone in this film. It’s funny for kids, and adults alike and my kids and I all loved it. You can still hear us quoting movie lines from it, around the house!
