With March being here and if you need a Great family movie night idea that would go well with St. Patrick's Day.
I would recommend Darby O'Gill and The Little People. by Walt Disney. This was Made in 1959.
There may be a few "scary" moments for very little people, as in young children. But it is a great family movie. We watched it last night and young and old liked it.
Make some Green Candied Popcorn from

Green Candied Popcorn
4 quarts popped corn
1 1/2 Cups sugar
1/2 Cup light corn syrup
2 Tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar (optional, does make mixture slightly more creamy)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
green food coloring (I used about 1/8 teaspoon Wilton paste color in Kelly Green)
In heavy saucepan on medium heat melt butter then add sugar, corn syrup, cream of tartar and salt. Increase temperature to medium high and bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly to dissolve sugar. Once mixture boils, add in food coloring and stop stirring. Boil for 5 minutes (Do not stir). Mixture should be about 250-260 degrees. Remove from heat and carefully stir in vanilla and baking soda. Working quickly and while mixture is foamy, pour mixture over popped corn and gently stir to coat popcorn. Place popcorn into a large roaster or rimmed baking sheet (lined with parchment paper or sprayed with cooking spray) and bake at 200° F for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Happy St Patrick’s Day!
You can even make Your own Leprechaun Trap...
The original Source for this trap is now gone, but credit does go them!
