There’s a new Jumanji movie out- Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle. It is definitely tied to the original movie, but it takes the idea in a different direction which I think is really fun. This movie is a bit more of a satire on video games, and less about running from wild animals so don’t go in expecting it to be exactly the same as the original movie.<\/p>\n

The goal of this Jumanji game is to find and return a green jewel to a monument in the center of the game. I made that Jewel out of green glitter Jell-o just to make it a little sparkly. Only use half of the recommended amount of water (or make it like the instructions suggest, but add 2 packets of gelatin instead of one) so it will be easier to work with. I used a metal bowl and dipped it in hot water so it came out of the bowl nicely, then cut it into a jewel shape after removing it from the bowl.<\/p>\n

One of the character’s weaknesses is cake. I won’t tell you what happens when he eats it, but he definitely should avoid it! In the movie he learns this when he eats pound cake. I used Martha Stewart’s recipe for this, but you can also get a nice pound cake from Costco. The character named Seaplane has skills that include making margaritas. If you are having a party for kids you can make this version which is just sparkling juice with sugar around the rim.<\/p>\n

There are lots of ideas related to Jumanji on Pinterest that would also work for a general jungle party. For example these parchment leaves that are food safe. You can use them as decorations or plates to put food on. You can see that I have three bars on my arm. I put these on with eye shadow. In the movie the bars represent the characters lives in the game. When they die in the game, they lose a bar.<\/p>\n

Which version of Jumanji did you enjoy more?
