Pete and Chris Amusements

This week's did-you-know takes us back to the era of the one and only Beatles! Everybody knows that the "Fab Four" starred in a number of movies during the height of their popularity.  Titles like "Help! (1965)," "A Hard Day's Night (1964)," and "Magical Mystery Tour (1967)."  Heck, I'd put "Yellow Submarine (1967)" as one of my favorite movies of all time!  But for as many movies  as have been made, there have been several which never made it to the silver screen. One such movie is a Beatles version of the Lord of the Rings. No.  I am not kidding.

Watch as Pete and Chris enjoy a rousing round of Outdoor Ringtoss!

Welcome to our debut edition of "Did You Know...?" Did you know... that Charlie Chaplin lost a Charlie Chaplin lookalike contest?

A fun Winter arts and craft idea with everyday items: Take a piece of paper, drizzle glue in three circles, the largest being on bottom. Place along those circles cotton balls. Inside the top circle, draw two eyes and a smile! And there you have it from Pete and Chris Amusements, a simple paper and cotton snowman arts and crafts project... at least it will keep the kids busy for 10 minutes!!! Pete

A few ideas for indoor winter activities by Pete and Chris Amusements. 1. Just a simple family game night with each other with some simple games like Spill the Beans or Break the Ice 2.
