The game's question
Piece the story together slowly; the title often comes back before the end.
Saturday, November 3, 1956: a movie made in 1939 was shown on television for the first time, on CBS. About 35 million people watched. After that, it came back year after year, and families gathered around the TV set to see it once more. Which movie was it? Circle it together.
- Peter Pan
- The Wizard of Oz
- Cinderella
Need a hint?
One word in the title is another name for a magician. The very last word is a name only two letters long. Who at your house never missed it?

Answer: “The Wizard of Oz”—first shown on CBS on November 3, 1956, then every year.
Why this game : A yearly movie night was a family ritual. Talking about it brings back the whole evening: the couch, the snacks, the late bedtime.
