Here’s a tip: For a stellar movie night for everyone to enjoy, make two separate boards: one for the kids and one for the adults. And it's even better if you have a few small boards for everyone to have their own! The kids willloveit if they get their own board and don’t have to share any of their goodies. Because who really wants to sharesnacks that are this delicious? Here are my tips for snack board pairings for both kids and adults to love.

For the kids

Moose Munchpairs well with movie theatercandy favoriteslike licorice, jelly beans, and sweet and sour gummy candies. You may want to get the kids chocolate-covered Moose Munch as a special treat. In addition tocandy, dry and crunchy treats likesnack mixesand peanut butter pretzels are great options. If you want to mix in a sweet crunch for the kids, add somefresh fruitlike berries or grapes, or snack-sizedvegetableslike cherry tomatoes and baby carrots.

For the adults

In addition to the sweet and crunchy Moose Munch, fresh fruits andcharcuteriecomplement a movie night snack board perfectly. Try a mix ofsharp and creamy cheeses, like Point Reyes Farmstead Toma and St. Pete’s Blue. Throw in somechocolate-covered fruit, like cherries and blueberries, for extra fun. Dried meats, like salami, prosciutto, and chorizo, will keep the adults satisfied throughout the movie. You can add to the crunch by mixing innutsand snack mixes. You may find yourself more interested in the snack board than the movie!

Don’t forget to make your movie night complete with plenty of cozy blankets and pillows. A handy roll of paper towels for sticky fingers doesn't hurt to keep nearby. Or a box of tissues.
