Sony Pictures Home Entertainment sent us a special Spider-Man: Far From Home themed activity care package and a copy of the Spider-Man: Far From Home Blu-ray Combo Pack for free to watch the movie and do the activities. Opinions are our own.

The special package that we received included a special mini suitcase that had an inflatable travel pillow that is Spider-Man themed, a couple of exclusive Night Monkey tshirts. These things are spectacular. There were some items to do some nifty science experiments which you can do at home, just download the .PDF below.

The kit also contained some items that we could use to make some special Mysterio cupcakes. Let’s just say that they involved cotton candy! You can see the one that Eva made in the photo above. We also received a copy of the movie on Blue-ray and my review is below.

In Spider-Man Far From Home we find Peter Parker and his friends on a special field trip overseas. Peter just wants to have a nice normal time with his friends without all the craziness of being a super hero. The problem is, being a super hero doesn’t mean that you get any time off. At any moment there could be a huge lava monster trying to attack you and your friends at a carnival. Maybe you are going to a nice gondola ride and a water villain attacks. Or maybe super spy, Nick Fury straight up kidnaps you and makes you help some new hero. Poor Peter.

I enjoyed Spider-Man Far From Home very much. It came quickly on the heels of Avengers: Endgame and it is very much an epilogue for the first 10 years of the MCU. Peter already has great responsibility and he gets even more heaped upon him when he received E.D.I.T.H.. E.D.I.T.H.is a pair of glasses that Tony Stark left to Peter along with everything that it controls in Stark Industries. Peter is not quite sure he wants all that responsibility and so when given the chance to find a hero who is more worthy than him he decides to give up the control and E.D.I.T.H.. Not exactly the smartest thing that Peter could do because that hero ends up being a fraud and Peter has to again learn from a big mistake and set things right.
