Ep 32. Winnie the Pooh: Bag Toss

In season 1 episode 32 of Disney Family Sundays, host Amber Kemp-Gerstel leads us through a fun-filled crafting adventure centered around the beloved Winnie the Pooh characters. This episode's craft is a Winnie the Pooh inspired bag toss game that is perfect for family gatherings and backyard fun.

The episode begins with Amber introducing us to the materials needed for the project. She has a wooden board, paint, stencils, and a variety of paintbrushes ready to go. Amber explains how the shapes on the stencil will form the characters from the Winnie the Pooh franchise. She has Tigger, Eeyore, Piglet, and of course, Winnie the Pooh himself.

Amber takes us through the step-by-step process of painting the wooden board. She starts with a base coat of yellow paint and explains how to add depth and texture to the board. She adds layers of green paint to create grass on the board, and then uses the stencils to add the characters. The end result is a colorful board with all of our favorite Winnie the Pooh characters.

Next up, Amber shows us how to make the bean bags for the bag toss game. She uses fabric in various shades of brown to create bags that resemble honey pots, just like the ones that Pooh loves so much. Amber shows us how to sew the bags together and fill them with beans to make them the perfect size and weight for throwing.

Once the bags are complete, Amber takes us outside to play the game. She sets up the painted board on a stand and places it a few feet away. The aim of the game is to throw the honey pot bean bags into the holes on the board, just like a traditional bag toss game. Amber and her family take turns playing and having fun, showcasing how easy and enjoyable this family craft can be.

Throughout the episode, we also get some fun facts about the Winnie the Pooh characters and the history of the franchise. For example, did you know that Winnie the Pooh was inspired by a real black bear named Winnie who lived in a zoo in London? And did you know that the author, A.A. Milne, based the characters on his son's stuffed animals?

Disney Family Sundays season 1 episode 32 is a fun and easy-to-follow episode that is perfect for families looking to spend some quality time together. The bag toss game is a classic activity that has been reimagined with a Winnie the Pooh twist, making it engaging and enjoyable for all ages. Amber's crafts are always easy to follow, and her enthusiasm for the project is infectious. This is a great episode for families who love crafting, games, and of course, Winnie the Pooh!
