Toy to the World

Have you taken the M.A.T.? You’ll need it to get into Monsters University!

 

Monsters University comes to theaters on June 21st and we can hardly wait! Like any student preparing for college, there are some steps that need to be taken. Start off by watching the introduction video.

 

Then you will need to take the M.A.T. (Monsters Aptitude Test) before you submit your application.

 

 

I’m happy to report that I got a great score on the M.A.T. – but my son got 9 out of the 10 questions right so he is the top MU student in our house!

 

I don’t think I will have any trouble getting in to Monsters University. I guess I better read up on all the requirements. I’m so glad they have such an informative website!

 

Are you ready for school to start? Better get going on that M.A.T.

 

Movies you might have missed–North Avenue Irregulars

 

With so many newer movies to watch, we often don’t think to go back to some of the movies of the past. North Avenue Irregulars came out in 1979 and I remember thinking it was so funny as a kid. A few years ago, I told my family that we should all watch it together. Nobody seemed too excited when I told them about it… a movie from the 1970s about a priest and some church ladies? Yes, believe it or not, it is a really cute and funny movie. I’m sure your kids will laugh, especially during the car derby scene.

It’s the kind of movie that the whole family can watch together and enjoy. It’s not a title you will find in your local red box rental machine, but you can find it online at amazon (dvd or instant) and you can even rent or purchase it from youtube. It’s also available on dvd from netflix or your local library might even have a copy.

Next time you want to watch something new, take a chance and grab this older film instead. It’s a fun one!
