I have partnered with Paramount Pictures to tell you about Sherlock Gnomes, a fun, family-friendly movie in theaters on March 23rd. You will love this movie which will be showing the value of teamwork, not taking others for granted and putting family first. I am excited to see these positive messages shared on the big screen.
They’re on a mission to bring every gnome home!
After a string of garden gnome disappearances in London, Gnomeo & Juliet look to legendary detective Sherlock Gnomes to solve the case of their missing friends and family. They stick together and show the value of teamwork. To celebrate we are making gnome cookies.
How to make gnome cookies
Be sure to extend the messages of the movie by making these darling gnome cookies to keep kids thinking about the movie. They are so simple kids can do it! To start we used an ice cream cone cookie cutter. I know clever right?
