Yet another exciting and final installment of DreamWorks Tales of Arcadia: Wizards will be part of our home movie entertainment this coming August. Netflix will see this series through the final ending of the magic.
We are all up for a new continuation of the Tales of Arcadia saga. The wizards, the stories, the magic are all interwoven into an incredibly addicting storytelling. But be confident that the entire series falls into the category of the family friendly movies. The experiences are rather teaching us different lessons and point out character integrity and flaws.
If you followed the characters from Tales of Arcadia in the Trollhunters and 3Below, you will be as excited as I am about the final chapter in this Arcadia trilogy.
However, if you haven’t ever watched the Tales of Arcadia, you can quickly become a fan of this series on Netflix. Besides, you can easily add this series to your family movie night ideas. That’s what we’ve done. We usually watch a couple of episodes during such time together.
Check out images from 2018 debut of Tales of Arcadia: 3Below. Interesting photos with Glen Close, Guillermo del Toro and Diego Luna.
In celebration of the final chapter, we have the season trailer to share with you below! DreamWorks Tales of Arcadia: Wizards returns to Netflix August 7.

Movie Night Movie Ideas for You
We’ve been having it as a tradition to have family movie nights. It is not just picking the movie we’d watch together. We try to do it in an interactive and memorable way.
Sometimes we have a movie under the stars with a projector. Some other times, we make some themed snacks and mini crafts. But we always do some coloring pages and puzzles for the movies intended to be watched together. These are some of the most treasured moments our kids and us will cherish forever.
As an example, take a look at some of the theme parties I shared on my blog.
This Bambi movie night was a cool one, filled with jello recipes, nuts, and simple collection of Japanese rice crackers. The kids loved making some movie-related stuff from the printables we printed out.
Check out this Bambi Movie Night Party ideas.
If your conditions allow, you can have a marvelous Movie Night Under the Stars, like we did with the Lion King.
And a simple movie night with popcorn and drinks was a Pinocchio movie night party.
Printables for Your Movie Night
Though the newest printables from Wizards are not out yet. But I have coloring pages from Trollhunters that could stand for a more fun and entertaining time. Plus, you can easily use these pages for more than just coloring.
Download all coloring pages HERE.
Here are a few family movie night ideas to utilize with coloring pages:
– papier mache masks and coasters
– paper ornaments
– gift wrap, gift tags or greeting cards
– wall art or framed art
Whatever you decide to do, you can have a fun and memorable family movie night with your own creative ideas to celebrate.

I haven’t heard of Tales of Arcadia before. Definitely a series I will check out. What an amazing cast!
Sherry,
No surprise that you haven’t heard of it. There’s so much produced by so many studios that there’s no human mind or time frame that can embrace it all.
DreamWorks is working or a hundred or more different productions simultaneously. It can be mind boggling, but it is a fact.
So fun! I would love to be able to watch this movie with my nephew, I think he’d like it!
Give it a try, Krysten. It is really engaging and draws in.
We love having movie nights every week now. Thanks for the movie night ideas, we will have to watch this soon and use these ideas for our movie night!!
Erin,
We’ve created some family traditions and modify them with activities and foods. It really is a good time spent together, making memories together. This year has been truly about family and connections within.
I have not heard of this but I know my eight year old son will love it. I plan to print up the coloring pages for him too!
Marie,
Please do. I will request more activity sheets with the new characters in the series from DreamWorks. They are incredible people.
This sounds like a great movie to watch with the kids!
