Smurfs: The Lost Village Discussion Guide & More

Something I really appreciate and love is that many studios are now releasing fun activities and guides tied with their films.

Smurfs The Lost Village Discussion GuideIf you visit the Smurfs: The Lost Village website, you will find:

  • Downloadable content
  • Coloring/ activity pages
  • Recipes
  • Games
  • A Smurf City Tour
  • And more free content!

As part of this campaign, I have a great Discussion Guide that brings in Christian values to share.

Inside, there are 5 themes addressed:

  1. Source of Our Identity
  2. A Servant’s Heart
  3. Courage to Act
  4. Our Past Doesn’t Define Us
  5. Loved Into Being

Each of those themes includes:

  • a guiding Scripture verse
  • how it ties to the film
  • questions for consideration

I suggest grabbing it and reading through the material before you head to the theater. That way you are ready for some potentially wonderful conversations with the kids as you leave the movie.

I know that my mind is already whirling over the thought of deep discussions with my 7-year-old son. He constantly amazes me with the connections he can make and his ability to tie it into our Christian faith.

  1. I never watched the original series growing up. My mom didn’t allow it. For some reason ?? IDK why
    I loved the first film. My son’s first preschool teacher was a huge smurf fan so she got him into it and he loves them. This one looks super cute and exciting.

  2. The Smurfs was a cartoon I watched as a kid. It’s exciting to see that have been redone. I’m wondering if their lives will be modernized with the technology of today.

  3. My kids are keen on seeing this one. They loved the first two parts. I love your activity concept and I am going to consider brining this into our family movie tradition. Thanks for sharing.

  4. Even though I did grow up watching the original cartoons, my children are more interested in seeing this movie as they both enjoyed the previous two movies but they won’t watch the original cartoons. But this did seem like a different type of smurfs movie which is in their village
