Popcorn is one of those things that once you start eating it you can’t stop. My solution was always to never have it, but since my kids have come along , going to the movies just is not the same if we don’t get a box of this popping good tasting stuff. Popcorn for parties is a great tummy filler for little kids and if you simply air pop it then it’s actually pretty healthy too. (Shh don’t tell my kids that)

These popcorn printables are perfect for a Movie night party, Hollywood party and even a sleepover party where you plan to air a movie to two. These printables are great for styling your DIY Party.

Here are some great free DIY printable wrappers for parties, movie nights or just for fun. Images and links go Left to right top to bottom.

PopCorn Labels – These are perfect for adding to containers or bags you already have on hand.

Cupcake Wrapper – Technically this one is for cupcakes but I thought it would make adorable mini serves. Just add the popcorn to a cupcake liner and you have single serve popcorn trays.

Lots of Americans seem to think that May 5 is Mexican Independence Day, but that holiday actually falls on Sept. 16.

May 5 is the celebration of the Battle of Puebla, in which the Mexicans defeated the French in 1862. Independence Day marks the beginning of their fight for independence from Spain in 1810. That was the day of what’s known as El Grito de Dolores, or the cry of Dolores, for when the Catholic priest Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla rang the church bells at his church in Dolores and declared that Mexico should be free from Spanish rule.

They would fight for their freedom until 1821 when they finally gained independence.

Fabulous Classroom has a little of the history and ideas for celebrating the holiday for all age groups. There’s also a link to a good video in that post about the real story of Mexican Independence Day.

Twinkl also has a good tops about the history and different activities, discussion ideas, crafts and foods that can be incorporated into lessons at school or used at home.

I also found a few pins that no longer link to a website but include good information on Mexican Independence Day, including some questions for students to answer based on the reading. You can find more printables and questions for kids from TX Homeschool Mama on Etsy (also available in Spanish).

You can find a lot more paid resources about Mexican Independence Day at Teachers Pay Teachers.

Mexican flag crafts are a fun option for celebrating Mexican Independence Day (though the current iteration of their flag has only been in use since 1968). Kids Activities Blog has a free Mexican flag printable and a few different ideas for decorating it including dot markers and torn tissue paper.

You can also find some great Mexican crafts at Red Ted Art. The post includes all sorts of Mexican inspired projects including Day of the Dead crafts, Frida Kahlo pinatas and upcycled musical instruments. I love the giant paper flowers they shared from Honestly WTF.
